SoCalSpaReview.com is announcing their first contest to find the best spa in Southern California. Clients of spas can nominate their favorite spa on the website’s short online form, and the winning entrant will receive a $100 gift card to the spa that they nominated. SoCalSpaReview.com will also tour the selected spa, and write a full review with pictures and a short video, which will be featured on the website. Eligible spas can be located anywhere in Southern California, including the counties of San Diego, Orange, Los Angeles, Riverside, San Bernardino, Imperial, Santa Barbara and Ventura.

What defines the best spa according to residents and visitors of Southern California? Is it the atmosphere, the location, the prices, the friendliness of the staff, or a particular treatment that they do better than anyone else? SoCalSpaReview.com is leaving the deciding factors entirely up to SoCal spa goers.

Honest, independent customer feedback is an invaluable tool for consumers and spa owners alike. For consumers, published reviews save time, energy and money by allowing consumers to decide ahead of time where they will be most likely to be best served based on other people’s good or bad experiences. Independent customer feedback also provides benefit to spa owners by giving them free market research, letting them know what people liked and disliked about their establishment in particular, and also giving insight as to what most appeals to people going to spas in general.

If you are a spa owner or manager and would like your clients to review your spa, just refer them to the website, SoCalSpaReview.com. The entry form only takes a couple of minutes to fill out, and is easy find and use.

The contest will be open until June 30th, 2008 and the winner will be announced by e-mail on July 14th, 2008.
