ββπ« Discovering Holiday Destinations
Thereβs no shortage of user-generated content (UGC) on #SocialMedia that keeps friends and family updated and allows users to save a snapshot of their experiences; two thirds post about their holiday on social media, with 4 in 10 posting while on the holiday.
This has a huge impact on vacationersβ decisions. Consumers are actually more likely to discover #travel destinations through content their peers share on social media β whether thatβs photos/videos (37%) or recommendations (32%) β than branded travel ads (24%).
BONUS: a super-cool website to inspire you!
