In today’s digital world, travel brands are fighting for visibility and market share. Luckily, tourism is one of the ripest industries for user-generated content (UGC) marketing. Not only are travelers sharing meaningful travel experiences on social media and travel websites but also look to this UGC for travel inspiration and validation.
