Tourism Research

Do you really know who’s talking about your destination? Are you sure you know the niche markets? Do you know what motivates people who visit your region, city or destination? We provide the most detailed answers you’ve ever seen. No one else can provide the deep insights into who’s talking about your destination like we can. No one.

Traditional tourism market research is still very valuable and will likely remain so. But today, with over 2 billion people online around the world and the increasing role of social media, online research for tourism is absolutely critical. Fortunately, that’s where we come in. Highly experienced with a number of social media market research for tourism authorities and operators under our belt.

Social Media Market Research for Tourism
When it comes to tourism research in social media, MediaBadger is a leading global authority. We’ve conducted a number of research projects in North America and Europe. We have multi-lingual capability for German, French, Spanish, Italian, Persian and Chinese (Cantonese.) Using our proprietary mediasphere360 software and professional human analysts, we deliver insightful results to your team in easy-to understand reports.

Beyond Social Media Monitoring Tools
We go far deeper and provide analysis that social media monitoring tools just can’t. All of these tools only monitor in a single language, they are limited in the channels they monitor and none of them dig into the over 200 other social networks like Facebook. They miss the “Deep Web” where many of the key insights are found. We harvest more channels and more information than traditional social media monitoring services; so you get the insights that actually matter and don’t miss critical insights.

The Insights You Need – Not Information Overload
Many analytics and monitoring tools provide some great graphs with lots of nice colours. But they don’t deliver insights. Our reports include graphs, but with detailed analysis and easy to understand language. We explain the findings in language that means you can make actionable decisions. Reports are tailored to your requirements, you guide the process.

Actionable Insights
Our research into online tourism markets is filled with insights that result in immediate actions. Information is delivered with graphs, social mapping and plain English analysis to help you clearly understand what is happening not just in social media, but the Web as a whole. Social Media today is a critical part of tourism research. Knowing your online tourism community is key. Tourism marketing campaigns today must involve social media, and the tourism ROI on social media is valuable – but only the up front tourism research on social media channels can help you define the right metrics, which social media monitoring tools for tourism will work, when and how as well as establishing a budget for tourism market research.
