DNS Solutions For the Lodging Industry

Travel and tourism is undoubtedly one of the most important industries in the world. After all, it averages more than $9 trillion per year and makes up 10.6% of the global workforce (pre-pandemic). Leisure and business-related travel play a significant part in local economies, and in fact, some areas are completely dependent upon it for economic survival. 

Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, more than a billion people a year do some form of traveling. And all this travel helps the lodging industry bring in more than $200 billion annually all on its own. As a popular quote from Hostelgeeks says: “Forget champagne and caviar—taste the world instead!” 

With such a large footprint on the global economy and evolving consumer trends, site performance and availability are crucial to the success of hotels, motels, and booking sites. Security is also a fundamental concern. With an overwhelming amount of travel transactions happening exclusively online, the hospitality industry has become a prime target for hackers.

Fortunately, there are DNS solutions that can not only keep your domain(s) up and running 100% of the time but can also thwart trending cyber threats like distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks.
