Cheap Hotels in South Beach

Before arrival, be sure to get a handle on the difference between “South Beach” and “Miami Beach” – if you don’t already.  Many people use these two terms interchangeably but they’re not really synonyms, at all. “South Beach” (a.k.a., SoBe) is effectively a district within the city of Miami Beach and “Miami Beach” is one of several cities on the long, quasi-man-made barrier island group that is situated just off of the coast of the city of Miami and its suburbs. Those islands also separate the northern part of the Biscayne from the Atlantic Ocean.

The area of South Beach is approximately one single square mile. Its southern edge is defined by Government Cut, the shipping channel used by freighters, Carnival Cruise Lines and a seemingly never ending variety of fishing boats and sailboats entering and leaving Biscayne Bay. Depending on who you speak to, South Beach extends to the north up to about 24^th St. or about where the Ocean Dr. / Collins Ave. Historic District ends and to the west over to Alton Rd. Of course, to the east is the beach, the Gulf Stream, and the Atlantic Ocean.

So there you have it.  One square mile that includes the largest 20^th century historic district in the country, with more than 800 protected art deco style houses, boutique hotels, and buildings, the southeastern most strip of beach on the continental U.S., one of the great vacation destinations in all the world.

Ready to Make Hotel Reservations?

With it being such an international destination and with it having such a reputation for lavishness, it might be hard to believe that you can actually find cheap deals on hotel rooms in South Beach.  But it is true.  While the area does have its share of four and five star hotels (the Fontainebleau Miami Beach,  Loews Miami Beach Hotel,  Grand Beach Hotel,  Royal Palm South Beach Resort, for example)  a vast majority of the hotels within walking distance to the beach are relatively inexpensive boutique hotels that provide a marvelous South Beach experience without charging an arm and a leg.   In fact, situated just off of Lummus Park, right between Collins Avenue and Ocean Drive, there are dozens hotels we’ve arranged inexpensive hotel deals with. Check out our cheap hotel prices for the dates you’re in South Beach.

The 5 block strip of beach just to the south of Lummus Park (the Lummus Brothers, along with Carl Fisher and John Collins, were the founders of Miami Beach back in 19151) is probably the most popular.  Maybe just because it’s the southernmost strip of beach, maybe it’s got the coolest lifeguard huts, maybe it’s the availability of cheap hotels, maybe it’s the continual fashion shoots and modeling that take place here, maybe it’s the surfers that flock to this spot when the surf is right—but for whatever reason, it rocks.  Once you’ve checked into your hotel and you are ready to get out to the beach, this might be the first area you want to try.

Use Us to Find a Hotel that Fits Your Budget

As you follow the beach north of Lummus Park you reach Lincoln Rd. and he northern half of South Beach.  (If you take a left here and follow Lincoln Rd. two blocks, you come to Lincoln Rd. Mall and some of the best shopping on the island.). The beach up to the north is lined by some of the more expensive hotels in South Beach–the Ritz Carlton and Loews, for example, but there are still plenty of great places to stay on a budget.  We have been able to arrange some cheap rates at some of these luxury spots, but often, the smaller, art deco style hotels provide a better South Beach flavor for a lot less money.

Well, that should give you enough information to get you started on your trip to South Beach. Explore and enjoy the sun. Please check out our cheap hotel rates and we hope you enjoy your stay

Everyone should understand the difference between rankings and profitability.

There are numerous companies out there that speak primarily about getting you rankings for keywords. On the surface it may look good but when you look more closely and correlate your web stats with your marketing spend and your online sales, you can get the feeling that things are a little too heavy on the budget side and much too little light on the sales side. Working with a company that is focused on your business goals and your profitability on the other hand, a company experiences a symbiotic relationship between their traffic, sales, and search engine optimization budget.

We Believe that search engine optimization is about greater profitability for your website.

Keywords, rankings, backlinks, traffic all have different meanings to different website owners but the common denominator for all companies investigating search engine marketing is profitability. We understand that. We also understand the responsibility you place in us to achieve bankable results for your company.

With the goal of making more money online, companies look to SEO as an investment in the efficiency with which their site attracts potential clients and moves the visitors towards and into a transactional activity. This is true regardless of whether you are selling products or services online, generating leads, and/or monetizing your site with Google adWords.

Yes, Rankings are important.

But convertible traffic that provides your company with a measurable return on your search engine marketing investment is something you can take to the bank. On the other hand, being #1 for some term that an optimizer pulled out of their !%s and can’t show you how much traffic you’re getting for it or how many sales that traffic generated is not.

For Example:

METAPILOT ranks highly for terms like “miami search engine optimization”, “search engine optimization maimi”, “miami search engine marketing”, “miami internet marketing” and a slew of others that are similar. That might sound worth while–and certainly for companies that primarily do business locally (like miami real estate, for example), local keywords like that create a lot of business–but keywords like those is not where our traffic comes from. Our most profitable search engine traffic comes from well thought out terms for which we have developed specialized content. (For competitive reasons, we won’t mention those keywords here.). The point is, real search engine optimization takes a holistic approach to building the value of your site–one that you the business owner can realize bankable results for.

Your business goals are important to us.

Our relationships with our clients are strong and long-lasting. We provide real value for the projects we are hired to undertake. Customers sense that when they call us for the first time and they realize it fully as their optimization projects progress. See what you can achieve when your website, your marketing budget, and METAPILOT work in unison.
