Event Tagging

February 3rd, 2012 · · Features No comments - Tags: , ,

We’ve supported event tags for a few years now, however only recently has our tag cloud become a prominent source for customers to find events. Tags are “keywords” or terms that describe your event.

Tags help people find your events by grouping events by genres, categories and more. Tags are also searchable. If you have a jazz show, and someone is looking for jazz but doesn’t have a specific show in mind, this person can search for ‘jazz’ or click on a ‘jazz’ tag and your event will be listed.

Adding tags will also help events receive extra exposure on the new “tag cloud” on the holdmyticket.com homepage. If you’re using an HMT Powered website you now have your own tag cloud on your site.
