Top End Web Design

The travel industry has been revolutionised by the internet.

Ten and more years ago people would first go into a travel agent, sit down and flick through glossy brochures while an agent checked for flight availability, car hire, insurance and hotel rooms. 

There was also Ceefax, which was a BBC service that broadcast holidays for people who did not want to go into a travel agent.

These days people can look at hotel pictures, consider previous guest reviews on Trip Advisor, go there by Google Earth for a quick look round, check flights, buy insurance, car hire and book hotels, all on-line.

For holiday companies, tour operators and travel websites, having an effective site is very much a central part of your business, and without it many companies would not be able to continue in business. Having a pukka site plays a big role in whether holiday planners stay on your site, or go to a competitor.

There are also holiday price comparison sites, that compare holidays and aim to identify the best package and cheapest holiday for customers (like lastminute).  Even though you are appearing on these sites, if your site does not tick the boxes, people will leave and go elsewhere.

It is advisable for you to work with someone who has already produced sites within this industry, and has some travel marketing knowledge.  This should produce a more effective site that both fits in to the industry, yet stands out against competitors.  The sector is very competitive and having a USP is essential for all companies.

People are prepared to spend a lot of money on their holidays, and your site does need to reflect quality and credibility.
