Travel Channel media created the huge empire that is the Travel Channel, this website, and other outlets. The design of the site is accommodating and allows visitors to easily decide where they want to go. The alternating video on the main page draws viewers in and easily grabs attention. My first visit was to the “Unfamiliar Haunts” page, due to the home page video’s suggestion. I especially liked the suggested videos, relating to the topics explored, except for the fact that I could not view them. Another nice touch is the News and Weather page. Not only does the site give current weather by location, but also weather in the world’s biggest and most popular cities. The news articles have catchy titles that suck you in instantly. I chose to read about T. Rex’s third finger, and found myself surfing the Discovery Channels site for more info on dinosaurs. The easy navigation, eye-catching pictures, and compelling topics tailor the travel experience for each unique web-surfer.
By the end of my travel experience, I wanted more. There are so many places to go and so little time, as the familiar saying goes. However, another visit to this site on another day can extend my journey much further. The Travel Channel’s website creates a new saying, “So many places to go with just a few clicks."
