How tourism has changed?

About 85% of the world tourist users (business, leisure or other), looks for information on the reputation of hotels for the destination on the web, and 60% ends the reservation of the trip on line.
Most of all after the start of the mobile, the potentiality of the web, take for the tourist sector a big importance, in the exponential growth of the sales, allowing to reach infinite targets of customers and of markets at reasonable, flexible costs, and in real time.

The rapid transformation of the touristic demand concerns most of all the growth of its complexity. In mature markets, the communication in real time has led to instantaneous purchases, asking operators a higher flexibility in the answer times, pulling down the space-time limits.
The use of the web, has led to pulling down the times of execution of the requests, multiplying the sales channels and the visibility. It is therefore fundamental a correct management of the “WEB REPUTATION”, qualifying one’s own communication online supplying information of viral type and of sharing on the social canals.
In a market therefore at high competitiveness as that of tourism, in which there is a high perishability of the product, for example the hotel room if it is not occupied in time, knowing how to manage costs and quality of the offer, dynamic rating and politics of marketing on the web, are fundamental elements to enhance the profitability of the tourist enterprise.
