Social Media Collaboration
Visit Morgan Hill publishes ongoing content on Instagram, Facebook, or TikTok for Morgan Hill travel inspiration. All our efforts are designed to inspire visitors from outside of the area to stay overnight. All of this requires a steady flow of new and fresh photography and video. Explore the ways we can engage with you, our local Morgan Hill business partners and content creators. Together we can inspire visits and uplift our hospitality community!
How to Participate
1. Directly Submit Photos and Videos 📷: A visually appealing setting, a photogenic dish, and unique local activities have the power to inspire visits. Make these photos go further than just your own followers and share them with Visit Morgan Hill. Shared photos are always credited.
Tips for Successful Photo & Video Submissions that get you featured:
High Quality - Original photography and video are essential to tourism marketing. Sharing high-quality, high-resolution photos and video increases the chance of being featured.
Less Is More - Pure video or photo is more versatile and easily incorporated into a variety of marketing mediums and are more likely to be posted than flyers and graphics, which fit a smaller amount of uses.
Embrace Video - Reels and TikToks are among the most influential forms of content to inspire travel decisions. Quick clips of a delicious meal, a walk downtown, or a local event support ongoing video production. The best video settings for your phone camera are 1080p x 30pfs.
