Our Favorite Travel Tweets of the Month – Feb 2010

Bryan Cassidy — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 11:00:41 +0000

We at Tourfolio know there are hundreds, if not thousands, of tweets a day and that there is a chance you could miss a few links highlighting thoughtful, interesting and humorous content related to traveling. As mentioned in my prior post, we used to do this as a weekly compilation however I thought it would be more appropriate to do on a monthly basis. Make sure to follow us at @Tourfolio for our travel tweets!

“Best Of” Travel Series Goes from Weekly to Monthly

Bryan Cassidy — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 03:41:35 +0000

In an effort to provide you readers with a better compilation of travel related tweets we will be moving the “Best of” series to a monthly basis. I would rather create a more useful and awesome compilation instead of always post a couple links on a weekly basis. Just wanted to give you all the heads up on why nothing was posted yesterday!

Tourfolio was founded about three months ago – September 2009 – and we’ve already made some big accomplishments in increased number of readers to this interactive magazine and a few guest posts on Matador and Travel Writer’s Exchange. We’ve also made some design changes to our site to make it easier for you to find noteworthy articles.

Most Viewed Post

10+ Bizarre Facts of Royal Caribbean’s Oasis of the Seas – An article that we did a bit of math to come up with some crazy facts and statistics about Royal Caribbean’s newest (and largest!) cruise ship, the Oasis of the Seas.

Least Viewed Post

6 Scenic Mountain Biking Trails in North America – This was one of our first posts and we probably were not indexed yet. Nonetheless, I was personally surprised that this wasn’t viewed more. I guess mountain biking isn’t a very popular search engine topic.

Most Discussed Post
