The following was communicated to Joel Leyden, publisher of the Israel News Agency:
ALL-TIME RECORD IN TOURISM ENTRIES FOR NOVEMBER:
15% INCREASE ON LAST YEAR;
3% MORE THAN 2010 AND 5% MORE THAN 2011
306,000 VISITOR ENTRIES RECORDED IN NOVEMBER 2013, 10% MORE THAN NOVEMBER 2012
3.3 MILLION VISITOR ENTRIES RECORDED JAN-NOV 2013, ALMOST IDENTICAL TO SAME PERIOD LAST YEAR
Tourism Ministry estimates that 2013 will close with slight increase on
visitor entries from the record year of 2012. This, despite the fact
that incoming tourism had to deal with issues related to the security
situation and the government budget. As a result of the marketing
efforts and the development of new markets alongside maintaining
existing markets, the annual contribution of tens of billions of shekels
made by tourism to the economy has been maintained.
According to the Central Bureau of Statistics, 306,000 visitors entered
Israel in November 2013, 10% more than November 2012 (Operation Pillar
of Defense), and slightly less than the months of November 2010 and
2011. Of these visitor entries, 256,000 were tourists (staying more
than one night), 15% more than November 2012, and 3% and 5% more than
November 2010 and 2011 - an all-time record for the month. November
also saw a reduction of 41% in the number of day visitors from Sinai
into Israel from last year (because of the instability in Egypt), a
continuation of the improvement from August -October 2013. There was
however an improvement in the number of day visitors as compared to
August-September 2013, with a 90% decrease. October 2013 did not include
the Jewish holidays, so an increase in incoming tourism would be
expected.
220,000 entries were by air, 19% more than November 2012, of which 8,000
arrived on direct flights to Eilat (6% less than November 2012) .
36,000 came through the border crossings, 7% less than November 2012;
27,000 came through the border with Jordan (1% increase) and about 9,200
through Taba to Eilat (23% less than last November).
49,000 entries were recorded by day visitors, 9% less than November
2012. Of these, 32,000 arrived on cruise ships (40% more than last
November). 15,000 day visitors arrived via the land crossings (48%
decrease on November 2012) and about 2,000 by air (10% more than last
November).
January-November 2013
Since the beginning of 2013 through November, about 3.3 million tourists
and day visitors arrived in Israel, almost identical to the same period
in 2012, 6% more than 2011 and 3% more than 2010. Of these entries, 2.7
million were tourists, a slight increase on the same period in 2012, 4%
more than 2011 and 5% more than 2010. 2.4 million entries were
recorded by air, 3% more than the same period in 2012.
About 547,000 entries were day visitors, 7% less than the same period
last year. Of these entries, about 245,000 came on cruise ships, 7% more
than in 2012. 179,000 came via the border crossings (35% less than
2012) and 123,000 by air (41% increase).
TOURISM MINISTER DR.UZI LANDAU: "Tourists continue to arrive in Israel
from all over the world in growing numbers and see Israel as a safe and
attractive tourist destination. The tourists choose to stay in a variety
of different accommodation options, allowing the income generated to be
dispersed across all sections of the population; small and large
businesses, in the cities and in the periphery, can make a decent living
from incoming tourism - and so it should be. The Tourism Ministry
welcomes the increase in tourism and will continue to work tirelessly to
increase incoming tourism, including next year."

Joel Leyden: Leyden Digital PR, Reputation Management, Social Media Group Expands
New York, NY – Joel
Leyden, President of the Leyden Digital PR, Reputation Management and Social
Media Group announced today the expansion of their professional digital
services.
“We were among the first to provide on-line digital PR,
crisis communications, SEO and branding solutions since 1994,” said Joel
Leyden. “Leyden Communications was born on Madison Ave and evolved into a full
service digital PR and social media group after we were approached to create
the first commercial Website in Israel in 1994. Leyden Digital PR provides
professional, global consultancy services to governments, commercial and
non-profit organizations.”
Joel
Leyden adds: “Our digital PR, integrated marketing and branding services
have expanded to include every facet of public relations and public affairs on
the Internet. In New York our NewYorkDigitalPr.com addresses
the Greater New York region with our extensive knowledge of both the
demographics and industries. In Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, Israel our IsraelPr.com group has been operating for
over 25 years helping the government to reach media markets and political
leaders on every continent. IsraelPr.com has been extremely successful in
creating both media and cross-cultural bridges for commercial and non-profit
organizations in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and Haifa. These industries include
hi-tech, healthcare, tech, financial PR, food and beverage, tourism,
fashion, defense and security.”
Joel Leyden continues: “Today we are
transcending the New York and Israel markets as we are presently negotiating
with PR and advertising agencies in Europe, Africa, the Caribbean and
Asia. It’s critically important to have partners in these regions
who speak and understand the native culture.
Our online
reputation management services provide immediate online
reputation management and crisis communications solutions which include
controlling one’s personal and commercial image on a variety of search engines
including Google, BING and AOL.”
“Leyden
Digital spends an equal amount of time working on Facebook, Twitter and Youtube
to provide positive visibility for our clients,” says Joel Leyden. “And we will
go well beyond monitoring a company’s name on Google, Facebook or Twitter if
our clients are being slandered and or libeled.”
Joel
Leyden states that his digital PR company recently contacted the FBI regarding
an individual who was criminally harassing and actually hacking two of his
international clients.
“There
are times when creating new Websites, news stories and blogs are not
sufficient in addressing illegal activities on the Internet. I have also
recently come under illegal on-line harassment. The FBI and INTERPOL are
more than well equipped to address criminal activity on the Internet. They
successfully defend nations from cyber warfare and individuals from being
threatened and harassed,” says Joel Leyden.
Joel
Leyden says that Leyden Digital PR has
partnerships with attorneys in the US, Europe and Israel who specialize in
cyber law and they are prepared to tackle any personal attack that may arise.
“The
demand for professional, online digital PR and reputation management solutions
have come to the forefront in the wired world,” says Joel Leyden. “Anyone can
say anything about anybody in today’s Google, Facebook and Twitter world. As
such Leyden Digital PR is now investing private capital and seeking
partnerships with other digital PR firms worldwide.”
Joel
Leyden, who co-created the Israel Defense Forces cyber unit and consults both
Israeli and US governmental organizations on messaging and branding online, is
creating professional, private cyber PR task force units to address threats to
governments, commercial, non-profit organizations and individuals.
Joel
Leyden’s professional digital PR work has been featured in The New York Times,
CNN, FOX News, The Washington Post, AP, Reuters, The Jerusalem Post, USA Today
and TIME magazine.
Joel
Leyden is reaching out to several digital PR firms in New York, Chicago, Los
Angeles, London, Paris, Greece and Jerusalem."
“It’s
a whole new world out there,” says Joel Leyden. “Our weapons in protecting our
clients used to be a press release and a fax machine. Today, we use professional
branding and copywriting professionals who live and breath Facebook and
Twitter. And if need be – a call to local law enforcement.”
Joel
Leyden concludes: “When you integrate extensive,
professional knowledge of the Web, of how Google and social media work
along with the telephone numbers of your local police and FBI, you create
a potent team which protects
against harassment, cyber stalking, spam, scams, abusive threats and
commercial, physical and emotional injury.”
