Best Travel Website
Each year Forbes magazine comes out with the name of the Best Travel Website. This year the site which won the title of the Best Travel Website is a user-generated content, carrying reviews of pubs, bars, clubs, restaurants, hotels, shopping and things to do around the world. Like all user-generated content sites, its success rests on its breadth of content, and finally it has blossomed.
The content on major cities – including London, New York and Paris, have plenty of recommendations around which to plan a visit as a tourist, or get inspiration as a local.
The design of the best travel websites is tidy with clear tabs taking you to hotels, restaurants, culture and so forth and there is a search facility by place name or category.
The site is very user-friendly. It includes many facilities such as making the lists of your favorite places to go and places you want to go, the Face book and Flicker groups and the Taste Matcher application.
This latter tool suggests places you might like according to the featured reviews. The more content you provide, the more accurate the recommendations.
It’s easy to add your own reviews, pictures and videos, although you need to keep search terms quite broad if you’re looking up reviews by area, and once you get out of major cities, reviews are thin on the ground.
If you provide more content than anyone else for a specific area, you are labeled a local expert, which is a nice touch, and breeds healthy competitiveness.
The Best Travel Website has quite deservedly gone to the website which has been consistently working towards making travel more simple and convenient for travelers from across the globe.
