1,500 PAGES!
THIS
SITE #1 IN YAHOO TOP 20 WEB RESULTS
FROM 5,000,000 ENTRY SEARCH
 When
you search for information on travel and tourism to
the Continent of Africa, chances are a page from
this web site will appear in the top 20. Want
proof? Search the Internet using the words "Africa
travel" on North America's leading search engines,
Google and Yahoo. Our ATA home page usually appears
in the top five ... and lately it has been in the
top two. A key reason for this success is its
wealth of content. As official site of the
Africa
Travel Association,
we have many African Travel Ministers on our Board
of Directors. Their Ministries provide us with an
abundance of current material in both English and
French. As a result this web site now offers
more than 1,100 pages from which our readers can
chose.
 Joining
the African Ministers on our ATA Board
of Directors
are key executives from Airlines, Hotel Chains and
Tour Companies serving Africa and targeting North
America. In African countries that are not in the
limelight, ours is one of the few sites that carry
stories, profiles or items. Thanks to such a wealth
of positive, non political, no-spin material, and
the ease of navigating our site, the number of hits
 (measuring
site activity) have  soared
to over 25,000 per day, millions per year, while
our length of time per visitor session has averaged
up to 15 minutes.

Travel Magazine (right).
