Adding Enhanced Content: Destination Marketing Organisations (DMO)

Create, manage, and distribute your destination marketing content, from one platform, with the tourism and travel industry so that the industry is aware of your destination's offerings and increase tourism and the communities of the destination.

As your iBrochure will indirectly be marketing the supplier and uplifting the communities within the destinations, you will be able to select Wetu activities, accommodations, and destinations in your Update Form.

Wetu Operators will benefit from the DMO iBrochure as when itineraries are sold the accommodation/activity is no longer sold as the main objective, it is the destination. This allows the Operator to embed the content-rich DMO iBrochure on their website or itineraries which will inform and showcase the destination and all its offerings to your clients.

Update the free text sections with the Destinations Climate and Weather, Best Time to Visit, Etiquette and Safety Notices.

Pictures

Adding pictures will provide travellers with a visual representation of the destination, making it easier for them to envision themselves enjoying all the amenities & facilities whilst on their dream vacation. Pictures speak louder than words.

A few things to consider when uploading pictures:

The minimum size of the image must be at least 2MP
Upload a minimum of 10 images (high-resolution)
Upload high-resolution images with a minimum 648 x 432 resolution.
Landscape images are preferred than portrait images (most screens are twice as wide as they are high, therefore landscape images will display better than portrait images).

YouTube

Videos are a great way to show off your destination in a wider scope that pictures cannot. Here you are able to link videos from YouTube to your listing.

Note: Please ensure that the YouTube channel you are linking from does not have Google Ads on it as these can advertise a holiday to the other side of the world. Also, check to see that the video you are uploading is not restricted to certain geographies and that it is not set to Private.

Virtual Tours

These are slightly complicated as, unlike videos, there isn't a central player for them like YouTube. The link would be generated and shared with you by the provider that shot it for you.

Supported Virtual Tour Providers You are able to upload your Virtual Tours that have been done by the following providers:

in3sixty.com
krpano
swf panorama
iframe

If you are looking for a new Virtual Tour we recommend using Google, as this is the easiest way to get your Virtual Tour into as many places as possible - your website, Wetu, other websites and Google Maps
