Editor's Notes
- #5: Our travelers It really is all about the user journey, they think about: Where to go, How to get there, where to stay and what to doClick 1 Where to go (Inspiration 30-40%)Destination pages and forum pages +71k cities We did an internal survey of our members and found that 32% of our users are looking at TripAdvisor for inspiration on which destination in the world to go to. To back this up further we have also carried out studies with an OTA that found that when we served display advertising directly into a series of specific destinations 47% of the users ended up purchasing a different destination from the one first researched ** all this data is further outlined in the appendixClick 2 How to get there (Inform & Research 60-70%)Seat Guru and Flight Meta Since our launch in 2000 we have built out an ever increasing number of ways for travelers to research their modes of transport from flights search, flights meta, seatguru, which allows you to find the best seat on the aircraft and Cruise Critic for the ever expanding cruise industryClick 3 Where to stay Business Travel & New filter graphic +460k hotels This was very much the heart of our content in 2000 but as you can see we are now much more than just hotel reviews however the scale of our content now reaching +40m reviews and opinions has allowed us to incorporate new functionality beyond filtering by price and star rating. You can now filter reviews by people who were on a similar type of holiday to you. E.g. Romance, Family, Couples, Business etc. We have also more recently been expanding into the holiday rental sector as well to make sure that we can offer a user the choice between a B&B, a Big Chain Hotel, a villa to a boutique hotel.Click 4 What to do Mobile App Graphic +640k attractions and restaurants on the site This is also a core section of the site and we have over 640k restaurants and attractions on TA now This content is great for the TripAdvisor travelers but is also fantastic in the Social Media and Mobile environments for people in their home markets as well as when travelling
- #7: Change to specific country
- #8: Social key initiative for TA – we are working on products to enable users to tap into the wisdom of their friendsOn siteMillions of FB users connecting per month and seeing friend content relevant to the cities they are planning their trips toFB users are more engaged – they are doing more of the things we want on the site, spending more time, viewing more pages, etc.FB users are 2x more likely to contribute contentOff site – Cities I’ve Visited Facebook appContinues to be engaging app on the platformMore than 20 million users1.5 billion pins added
- #12: This is great information for a creative on TA for the hotel industry, if you want to boost interaction and conversion rates it looks like that you should consider: Layering in the review/rating that your property has on TA. Examples are Hilton and Sol Melia in Europe using their ratings and our brand on the CPM creative If you have a good location you might want to show a map on a creative rotation to showcase the property next to great attractions or restaurants etc in the area
- #21: In the last week of August, “Reviews at a glance” debuted on all of TripAdvisor’s English-language domains. The feature appears on more than 20,000 properties – any property that has received at least 50 reviews in the last two years. The two-to-three word statements that appear most often in their reviews are displayed, in order of frequency. Travelers can click down on any of the terms to see the reviews behind them and gather more detail.
- #34: People were asked which social media tools they expected companies to use. 40% of consumers expected onsite reviews of products and services
