If you own a small travel business you probably realize that the Internet offers some opportunity.
There is a generation of people finding information online. They search online for things like travel ideas and things to do in new cities. These people ask their friends by email and on social networks about things to do when they’re traveling.
For a small business it’s important to get involved to capture this demographic.
