5 Travel Information Business Success Stories [2023]
Travel information websites provide information about travel and tourism.
Travel and tourism content on the site may include articles, blogs, and forums. Travelers check websites for details such as booking flights or hotels, providing weather forecasts, or maps with directions to various destinations. If you are starting a travel information website, provide the users with an attractive, easy-to-navigate interface.
It should be well-designed and provide a comprehensive database of information about all the tourist destinations in the world. It is important to remember that such a website must be updated regularly. Content writers must ensure that they are constantly adding new articles, photos, videos, and other media content.
Here are some real life success stories of starting a travel information business:

SALMAN BIN RASHID SHAH SAYEEM (from Dhaka, Bangladesh) started Flight Expert Bangladesh about 6 years ago.
Hello, I am Salman Rashid, Founder & CEO of Flight Expert. It is the first-ever online travel agency in Bangladesh. Our uniqueness was to build a state-of-the-art online travel agency with services focusing on Bangladesh primarily. This country has never before enjoyed taking assistance from any online travel agency.
However, the best part is that we achieved 50% more revenue in October 2021 than our pre-covid highest number on sales in a month, interestingly, and we are aiming to hit breakeven by March 2022 if all goes well in the market.
