Lakes Portal

Background

Every year, there are more and more people travelling. Despite the fact that there are numerous websites about tourism, they are usually about everything and nothing. All countries, all types of travel, all types of accommodation - the information load can be overwhelming.

Implications

People will be increasingly looking for specialised websites that could provide them with more thorough information on a particular country, type of travel or accommodation.

Example

Many people love lakes. Surprisingly, there are no websites that provide a comprehensive guide to lakes - when to come, where to stay, what to do.

Potential users

Potential users include anyone interested in lakes, most notably tourists, water sports maniacs and fishermen. Moreover, pages about a particular lake could attract many types of advertisers such as hotels or sports equipment rental services.

Knowledge/skills needed

Either knowledge about the subject (e.g. lakes) or willingness to search for and compile different sources of information on the subject. The website can be a very simple one.
