134. Expedia–IntegrationsOnExternalPagesVery
Questionable
Workshop: Content Marketing with Rockaway
Beispiel-Integrationen:
Ehemals die Könige der Sandburgen, geben heute nur noch elf Prozent der von
Expedia Befragten an, regelmäßig an den vergänglichen Kunstwerken zu bauen.
Vielleicht hast du es aber auch gar nicht so mit dem Strand überhaupt, eine
Alternative sind dann immer tolle Städtereisen nach Dublin, Paris, Rom oder London,
welche man ja günstig bei Expedia hier buchen kann.
Schließlich gibt es an der Ostseeküste zahlreiche FKK-Strände. Die Deutschen, laut
dem neuesten Strandreport von Inside Expedia FKK-Weltmeister, lieben es, sich im
Urlaub von lästiger Kleidung ganz freizumachen. Mit einem Accessoire wie der
Sonnenbrille mit auffälligem Rand muss selbst der blasseste nackte Hipster keine
Angst haben, am Strand negativ aufzufallen.
