Todd Lucier of TourismKeys.ca/blog has a great blog post about travel bloggers and why they are making a significant impact on travel and tourism. Todd has some excellent bullet points to illustrate why travel bloggers can generate more interest in travel and tourism than traditional media can. Here are two:
- bloggers generally start creating buzz before they travel to your location, while at your location, and after they return home.
- many bloggers live blog, tweet, and stream video – live as they are having travel experiences, bringing real time hear and now web to your business or region.(Live content is also archived and available online after the event.)
