Having worked in the online travel market for some time now, one thing is clear, you have to be up on the latest information and ready to utilise it before your competitors do. And let’s face it, with the online market so strong and competitive, there is always someone who will use it. In the travel industry, the internet is now becoming the number one market place for holiday seekers. You need to keep up to date with online changes as much as you need to read the brochures and check the high street.
On that note…
…here is a list of those sites you NEED to be part of to keep that competitive edge.
TravelMole
This is one of the major sites in travel and tourism. TravelMole is an online community and allows users to post relevant news as well as the regular news generators. Sign up to the newsletter for the latest information in regular updates.

Revolution
Revolution is the UK's only monthly magazine dedicated to digital marketing. Since its launch at the height of the dotcom boom it has been synonymous with industry defining insight and editorial excellence. It provides business intelligence and insight to those working within the UK’s fastest moving communications sector. Lots of offers and even job listings if you so wish!

Eye For Travel
Well the clue is in the title. It’s a bit more messy and not as well regulated as travelmole and revolution but you still receive the same information. It also gives you a bit more insight into the USA market.

Travel Weekly
A great website for different news! News travels fast and regularly the previous websites drive the same news to your inbox. I have found travel weekly takes news from different sources and uses more examples than generic articles.

There are literally hundreds of travel industry news sites across the internet, often highlighting the same stories in varying formats. The travel industry has a strong presence online. Make sure you are at the top of it!
