Under the trend of personalized consumption, the traditional online method of “placing similar content appears on one webpage” and product pages are not enough to meet the consumers’ “demand of receiving more information”. During the process of consulting and booking tourism products, users usually do this through many different channels to gather information about their destination, itinerary, expenses and others. However, the overwhelming amount of information and the consumers’ demands collide in different occasions, and this makes travelers extremely unsure of what they want to choose.

To solve this problem, the brand new version of Tuniu’s “Which Places Are Worth Travelling To” channel exposes its information according to the “massive-accurate” optimization logic.

The content includes popular destination recommendation, ultimate methods of saving money, in depth travel strategies, and social interaction between those who are interested in experiences. The website will guide each user to the “decision-making--trading--share” pattern.

“The ‘Which Places Are Worth Travelling To’ channel’s new version takes the perspective of standing in each customer’s shoes to help them discover more valuable and cheaper products as well as the post popular destinations of the moment, making customers fully understand the tourism products of the website. It uses the “warm” and “kind” service to bring the warm-hearted consumption experience to our users.” An employee of Tuniu in charge of the project said.

Activities synchronize on all platforms create “What Is Worth Purchasing” in the tourism industry

As users’ personal and wish of experience demands increase, users’ demands of online shopping guide will keep updating. In the eyes of most customers, a “shopping guide” seems more likely to only serve offline customers. Taking this situation into consideration, Tuniu already has set up more than 100 regional service centers and provides tourism product booking service in more than 320 cities where travelers set off from. In addition, it also provides high quality offline service for its customers.
