The consequences for tourism… Experienced tourists will increasingly put together their own holidays on a modular basis with direct bookings. The internet will transform the classical role of the tourism organisations at an increasing speed The importance of availability of in-depth information of product The growing need for secure online reservations (Professor Dylan Jones-Evans 2004)
What do visitors want?  “ Attractions, things to do and accommodation.” “ I tend to look for website user friendly pages, the more deals on travel websites is better. I do look for websites with photos of the accommodation and area. The more information I can acquire the better.” “ Information easily located. If there are pictures for them to be fairly clear.” “ Easy to use, includes whole price, can book online”   ( Arkenford 2009)

Booking patterns
Case study – Gladwins Farm, Suffolk ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],“ Guestlink has provided a cheap way of getting online bookings. Some have been 'last-minute' and some have been well in advance. All were unexpected, of course and did not require the postage of brochures etc in advance. In summary we consider Guestlink's online booking system to be another tool in our box to get bookings and one which we would not now be without.”  (Robert Dosser, Owner)
