A new success-guarantee formula: The 80 / 20 rule

In our era, the impact of social media and Internet on the travel and accommodation industry is beyond dispute. In this context, while securing their position, these popular channels may control and affect personal preferences. People now check out TripAdvisor before choosing a hotel to stay at, where to visit, where to go on a holiday and prefer Booking.com for reservations.

According to a study, over 70 percent of adult Internet users use social media sites actively and 8 of every 10 social media users prefer social media to communicate with companies instead of their websites.

How can you use the 80 / 20 rule when determining which social media channel will bring the most effective customer flow or which site will ensure the best results when carrying out social media marketing?

Why is cloud computing secure?

Posted on 28/04/2014 by Ali Beklen in General No Comments
Why is cloud computing secure?

How would you feel if the data of your property and your customers were hosted on a remote server? Cloud computing technology facilitates things for the accommodation industry in many aspects; however, many of us do not have enough information about how to secure information on the cloud. In this article, we are trying to answer possible questions about the security of cloud computing which brings great flexibility for businesses in terms of mobility.

The hesitation to deploy cloud computing may be similar to the fear of flying: The way to overcome the feeling of hesitation against every unknown or little-known technology is possible through learning what it actually is. Just like the fact that we accept airways to be statistically the safest form of transportation, it is possible to say that cloud computing is at least as secure as our computers at home or mobile devices. Further information is available below.
