Missoula competes to host major social media conference – Please Vote!

"You can’t buy PR like that for a community," Executive Director for Destination Missoula Barbara Neilan says.

It’s free to the competitor with the most votes.

Missoula is in the running to host a Social Media Tourism Symposium.

The event, known as SoMeT, could draw as many as 300 tourism professionals from across the country.

Cities compete to host this event because it draws individuals who specialize in spreading the word.

For six days, these tweeters and bloggers fire off blurbs about the city they are visiting.

Word spreads through millions of mentions of the city through social media.

Each social media mention of the city is called an impression.

Last year’s SoMeT took place in El Paso Texas and generated 10.7 million impressions.
