Myrtle Beach Vacation Business is STRONG!

I keep seeing reports in the Sun News that rentals are off for this year. Well, I have once again inquired, and Martin Brown, owner of Condolux of North Myrtle Beach tells me that he is up from last year about 20%, and from what he has heard, Condo World is also up a little bit or even with last year. So it appears there are possibly two things creating this discrepancy.

In Myrtle Beach, the Sun News is going mostly by reports from the company that owns Myrtle Beach Hotels.com. Now they are the most powerful family company in the area and have been for many years. They have a dozen or more very powerful websites, and rank number one in Google for Myrtle Beach Hotels. They also own websites for most if not all of the resorts that they service, and many of these also come up under that term in Google. This, however, is fairly recent...maybe no more than from 2008 until now.

But there are other very important terms such as condos that get at least half of the business. I have been affiliated with Condolux in some form or fashion for about 6 years. They pretty much rule every phrase that tourists might type in, having anything to do with Myrtle Beach vacation rentals.

I feel like through the last few years, many of the customers have discovered North Myrtle Beach through "our" websites, and now prefer Ocean Drive, Cherry Grove, and Crescent Beach to the crowded beaches in Myrtle Beach proper. They are also 99% very pleased with the service that Condolux offers, and both owners and vacationers return to the website each year. They no longer feel it necessary to search for a place to stay.

Those that are not familiar with the area and Condolux type in search phrases with many variations. Although "hotels" is the most popular term itself, if you add up all the variations, the total of them is as large or moreso than the one term. If they search for Myrtle Beach Condos, Myrtle Beach Rentals, rental condos, oceanfront condos, etc., Condolux is always right at the top.

That provides a high rate of rentals for the owners, a super large number of leads for sellers, and a nice inventory of condos to browse for those looking to buy. They also have websites for those looking at golf in Myrtle Beach.

Anyway, my point is that the market is not down for everyone in Myrtle Beach this year. Those who have the excellent reputations and reviews along with the best internet presence are reaping the rewards of hard work and market insight.
