?You don’t know how to use social media as a tool?

?Have you ever wondered what social media has

the biggest influence on travelers?

?And what content you should publish when using

specific social media?

We present you the top 5 social media that has the biggest influence on travelers and

how to use it!

#1Facebook

Facebook is the best choice when you want to add a lot of

details and extensive stories from trips.

The key feature is prompt interaction with your readers plus you may also offer booking on Facebook

page.

Tip: The best time to post on Facebook is during lunch break (1-3 pm)

when people like to read news.

#2Twitter

Twitter has over 500 million users and it should be your

choice if you prefer to publish short news, known as

“tweets.”

Individuals with similar interests communicate

with each other and therefore share their

experiences and stories.

Tip: A huge number of twitter users are 35-54 years old, that magic tourism age

group.

#3Instagram

You should definitely jump on the Instagram bandwagon and share all beautiful

trips you can offer. 

It’s an online-photo and video-sharing social network and

tourism is the most popular sector there.

Tip: Choose the best photos, create a collage that will tell a story of the trip you

sell and let the fun start.

#4Pinterest

It is virtual inspiration board for images and videos where users can discover other people’s

content.

Customers can say which (travel) products they would like to buy for themselves and their

friends can pin those photos on their own wall.

Tip: Quotes are hugely popular on Pinterest and

travel quotes are no exception. Find catchy a travel quote and post it.

#5TripAdvisor

On this largest travel site you can introduce your products and services to

millions of qualified travel buyers.

TripAdvisor will help you reach the consumer at the exact time they are looking for trips.

Tip: Read the reviews and respond when possible with a “thank you“ and try to track

reviews of your competitors and see how you rank.

Remember!Agents who add value in the travel

purchase process are the ones who will provide travelers with compelling reasons to

contact them!
