ABSTRACT
Clarissa Nasarani 2016. Strategies in Promoting The Website of Puro Mangkunegaran
Palace. English D3 program, Faculty of Culture Sciences Sebelas Maret University.
This internship report is written based on my internship activity from January 4th to March 4th
2016 as an intern at Puro Mangkunegaran Palace. The objective of this report is to know and
describe the strategies in promoting the Website of Puro Mangkunegaran Palace including the
problems and solutions. The intern has several activities such as doing observation, collecting
data, making and designing website, and releasing and promoting website. First, the intern did
observation by following class activity, escorting and handling tourist. In the class activity the

interns should listen and learn the material given by the seniors of Mangkunegaran Palace. After
class activity ended, the intern was asked by the senior guide to escort and handle tourists. These
activities were the way to observe the information of Mangkunegaran Palace. After that the
intern continued collecting data. In collecting data, the intern started writing contents (made
some articles) by writing the data and information that she got in escorting activity. The intern
made articles about collections of Mangkunegaran Palace. Then, the interns continued to make
and design a website. The intern made a simple website, namely
mangkunegaranpalace.simplesite.com. After the website was finished, the intern did several
ways. They are promoting and realizing the website by brochure and travel agent, sharing by
social media, and handling tourist. The intern encountered several problems in doing promotion
strategy such as difficulties in getting information, making proper article using good English
written text, and designing and making website. The interns overcame the problem by asking
friends who are good at English and asking a supervisor of Mangkunegaran to get the correct
information.
