Canadamigos Social Network reaches 2,000 members

The Canadamigos.com Social Network surpassed the 2,000 member mark this week. Canadamigos is getting over 6,000 visits per month and growing. People from just about every Spanish speaking country in the world (including the US) are finding the Canadamigos Social Networking site and joining in the conversation about Canada and the Hispanic world. Canadá en Español is an active participant in the site in order to approve memberships, to monitor the content and to influence the conversation. Canadamigos is Canadá en Español's Tourism 2.0 venture going forward. The idea is to turn virtual travelers into actual visitors to Canada and to turn those visitors into word of mouth (online and offline) champions for Canadian Tourism by engaging in a two way conversation. As the site and the membership grows, the community will become more and more attractive for Canadian Tourism businesses and destinations who decide to get into the conversation in a growing niche market, i.e. Hispanic inbound tourism to Canada. In addition to members from almost every Spanish speaking country Canadamigos has members in BC, Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec and Nova Scotia. Canadamigos provides a platform for tourism organizations in Canada who are interested in attracting Hispanic travelers by influencing the conversation.
