Is it good to be a tour guide or a webmaster?

Intermediary transaction SEO diagnosis Taobao guest Cloud host technology Hall

I am 23 years old this year, and I feel like a little child. Have not made money to save the daughter of a friend to support the family's plan, graduated from university two years to find that they have not mixed up a fame. Sometimes I always feel that I have a kind of ah Q spirit, "I just progress very slowly, but never back." "This is always an excuse for self comfort!"

I graduated from university in 06, university study is Highway bridge construction, family and relatives and friends think I learn this promising, but I'm a man who can't stand the constraints, work like freedom, like in the company eight tight and there are a variety of rules I do not like, and I am interested in English and tourism, so I quit my job after graduation , to Guilin Yangshuo as a guide, as the saying goes: "The Rolling Stone does not grow moss, career change not rich." "Sometimes it feels right, after all, insiders.

In Guilin, Yangshuo as a guide for the two years, although did not make any money, but also very happy, after all, this is the choice of their favorite career. I also learned a lot of knowledge, yes, also tested a national guide card. In short, in the two years when the tour guide has been very happy! We all know, tour guide This profession is not what technical content, as long as your mouth bar glib, go to travel agency to be a full-time guide for a year or can make some money. I also admit that making money is difficult. Like now Guilin has more than 1W tour guides, most of the guide nothing to do, the new tour guide to endure the exploitation of travel agents, on the other hand to make every effort to tourists happy, even if the tourists do not add more shopping. And now travel agencies are cheaper and less profit, resulting in a vicious circle, the days of new guides are getting worse! I did not have to take a tour guide to travel agencies to work only, I think as a college students engaged in the tourism industry if not even a guide card, it is not to let people joke, So I made up my mind to test a guide card (the National Guide card admission rate is only about 20%), justifiably engaged in the tourism industry. Kung Fu not negative, in summing up the first failure of the reasons, I finally got the second time.

I've said so much, I haven't got the point yet? What's the link between being a tour guide and being a webmaster? Because we do travel, work more free and easy, there are tourists can be the current guide to arrange the trip, if it is the off-season we can play. Because the first choice of this career is to break through the layers of resistance, they are determined to create a piece of their own blue sky. Otherwise, it is not a joke! I am interested in a wide range of people, such as oral English, advertising design are more interested in the university has also studied Photoshop, there is a certain basis. Just then the boss also happened to sell a travel site, because he did not understand the site maintenance, so I help him maintain. To be honest, I did not understand anything at that time, even the most basic dreamwever Web site editing, site domain name and space do not know why things, there is no way to learn slightly. Fortunately, I have foresight, come to Yangshuo before I specially brought some Web site production related books, so I use free time to learn Web site production, of course, like me such a layman, learn to make simple static web pages, simple to modify and upload Web pages can also be a little complicated database on the unknown.

To tell the truth, the site does good and bad and technology has a direct relationship. I have a deep understanding of this. For example, when I came to Guilin, I also met a local friend, he also just graduated from college, but he studied in the University of Tourism Management, and he also studied the Web production in college, my boss's website is also bought in him, but now the site is being modified after the new site. He was in partnership with a pub, and he made his own website to advertise his inn. Now his site, along with his name, has become a household word in various search engines, and I am still unknown in Yangshuo. I want to start a business and he also slept together on the floor, this is the gap ah? Every time I think about it, I feel a pain in my heart! So I charge myself whenever I can, and I always find it better to learn something more. Then successively also learned Coreldraw, Fireworks,flash. Because of the time to do the site too heavy emphasis on aesthetics, ignoring the optimization of the site and keyword processing. So, even if I pay a lot of effort and efforts, but the site rankings and search is not good. Until recently I saw some articles in webmaster net, just feel oneself really is a layman, now think up to find oneself formerly do the website really very naïve. I may not be a good webmaster, but this may be the majority of new webmaster committed common problems, too much of the pursuit of the site's many, full, beautiful. Does not pay attention to the website readability, the promotion, the optimization and the promotion.

The age in which we are living, has been inseparable from the network, through the network to make money also become simple and quick, and the site is a good money-making platform, like as a local site, we do not like other large portal sites, too much emphasis on traffic and rankings, so as to earn advertising fees, we build a site is very targeted, That is our customer group, more than Two-thirds is through the network to understand us, and then booking, booking, and travel arrangements. So our requirements for the site is: Do not seek more and all but meticulous intimate, especially the content of the site to emphasize the readability and retention. Thus better for our business services. Through the network, our tour guides can communicate directly with the tourists, simplifying the intermediate process, so as to provide visitors with more appropriate and convenient services. Both increase income and strike off the rules that traditional guides must work in travel agencies.

With the successful hosting of the Olympic Games, I believe that more foreign tourists will come to China in the future, and the network as a direct marketing platform, will play an irreplaceable role! I love my tour guide profession, but I also do not want to become a rookie stationmaster! Take this opportunity, I also want to make more stationmaster friend in webmaster NET, Learn more about Web site production techniques. Better when good stationmaster, can better for my tour guide work service! The future is bright, the road is tortuous! As long as the heart to do, you will be able to do it!
