Cultural attractions can help cities get away from a seasonal pattern of tourism, focus on higher-income
visitors. Hence, cultural tourism has a strong relationship with city branding. Given a city cannot build separate
brands for its different stakeholders, city branding aims to tourists who might be investors or residents in the
future. However, the understanding of the searching trend of online travelers is still limited. This study
investigates tourism searching patterns and keywords volume related to cultural information through search
engines and social media. The research sites include different tourism regions of Vietnam, which are Hanoi,
Hue, Danang, Hoi An and Ho Chi Minh. Successful examples of creative cities all over the world are reviewed
for technological platform-based communication in three different levels: primary, secondary, and tertiary. The
findings show the dominance of central Vietnam cities as a tourism cluster. The study suggests implications for
Danang city to use new technologies for city brand communication more effectively. |
