This document summarizes a presentation on evaluating web sites using the 7 Loci method. It discusses several web site evaluation projects, including evaluating a ski consortium website, comparing regional tourist boards in the Alps, and analyzing hotel websites in Italian Alpine regions. For each project, it describes the goals, methodology, findings and results of using the 7 Loci evaluation model to assess various aspects of website quality.

Insufficient application of some good

More than half of the sites give no
information

region; e.g., Piemonte, RhoneAlpes
on the handicrafts and typical local
products; e.g., Veneto, Vorarlberg
20. Lack of information or services,
Cont'd
more than 50% of the sites give no
information public transport in the region;
e.g., Alto Adige-Suedtirol, Bayern
about 30% of the sites make no mention of

the landscape, hiking trails in the
mountains or bike paths
about 20% fail to include information about
sporting activities different from skiing;
e.g., Piemonte, Veneto
21. Insufficient application of good
practices
Information updated at least for the season
when our evaluation took place (26%)
A high number of broken links: 8% of the
sites have a rate of broken links over 3%;
e.g. Graubuenden

About 8% of sites require a plug-in to
download the home page; e.g. Alpi Liguria
85% of the sites take more than 15’’ to

Kbaud modem); e.g. Trentino, Tirol
22. Poor use of the potential offered by
a Web site
Only 15% of the sites offer the possibility to
print at least some of the contents; e.g.

where most hotels are of small or medium
size
The goal was to determine whether and to

what degree the hotels’ Web sites support

commercialization by examining them
through the framework of destination
management
29. Context
The use of the Internet to organize
journeys and vacations has increased in
recent years
As regard the demands,
TIA found an increase in the percentage

of Americans who book their
accommodations on line, increasing from
57% in 2002 to 71% in 2003
(Travel Industry Association of America, www.tia.org)
in Italy, online accommodations bookings
represented 15% of all guests in spring
2004 but 28.1% one year later
(ISNART, http://www.isnart.com)
30. Context, Cont'd
In terms of the offering, in recent years the
hotel sector has invested in the
development of Web sites. Nearly 100% of
hotels, especially if they belong to a chain,
either have their own site or are present on
WEE-NET

the site of an entity for tourist promotion or
of private tourism consortia
31. Scope of the research
As the aim was to evaluate Web sites of
hotels in the Italian Alps, the research
extended into the political regions of
Piemonte, Valle d’Aosta, Trentino Alto Adige
and Veneto (Province of Belluno)
WEE-NET
Web Engineering Network
of Excellence

31
From the 3796 hotels in locations within
these regions, 2859 had an e-mail address.
This was the reference population from
which the sampling was extracted
32. Scope of the research, Cont'd
The sampling for a previous (2003-04)
study consisted of 325 hotels, 248 of which
responded to the e-mail questionnaire
Our research on the hotel Web sites
considered 204 of those 248 hotels,

32
excluding 44 because they did not have
their own Web site
33. The evaluation schema, Cont'd
1° step: to identify the aims of the stakeholders –
hoteliers and tourists – that the Web site should meet
Hoteliers: in the Italian Alps where tourism is largely
non-mediated and where the offering is provided by
SMEs, the Web site of the single hotel can support:
promotional activities, e.g., by proposing special

Luisa Mich – The challenges of the NOW Economy
33
offers for specific groups;
e-commerce by facilitating booking and full or
partial payment on line;
from the perspective of the destination, the
creation of an image that is holistic and reflective of
the larger destination instead of just the single
business
34. The evaluation schema, Cont'd
When visiting a hotel site, tourists expect to find
a detailed description of the hotel: type, services,
special offers, pictures, news and events in the
area, cultural activities, sport and recreational
activities, contact information, etc.
It would be even more attractive for the tourist if
WEE-NET
Web Engineering Network
of Excellence
Summer School in La Plata, Argentina
January 29 February 9 2007
Luisa Mich – The challenges of the NOW Economy
34
the site allowed online booking and/or payment
Hotelier and tourist needs or requirements obtained
in this step were then translated by Web sites
analysts in a first set of questions. For example, to
investigate the information about the hotel, one of
the questions was: “Does the Web site contain
information on facilities available in the rooms?”
35. The evaluation schema, Cont'd
2° step: preliminary evaluation to reveal the
macroscopic characteristics and to then calibrate the
evaluation model
The preliminary inspective evaluation done by 2
experts in quality and in tourism showed that
there were notable differences among the hotel
WEE-NET
Web Engineering Network
of Excellence
Summer School in La Plata, Argentina
January 29 February 9 2007
Luisa Mich – The challenges of the NOW Economy
35
Web sites analyzed, that range from amateur
sites of just a few pages to professional sites; the
dimensions of the sites under examination proved
to be relatively contained, given that most of the
sites analyzed had fewer than 20 pages
These results were used to establish the number
(minimum and maximum) and the granularity of
the questions of the evaluation framework
36. The evaluation schema, Cont'd
3° step: choice of the 7Loci meta-model dimensions that
have to be investigated
As regard the hotel Web sites, we had to look for the
presence of those elements related to the expressed aims
of the hoteliers and tourists; they refer mainly to the
presence of information and services available at the hotel
WEE-NET
Web Engineering Network
of Excellence
Summer School in La Plata, Argentina
January 29 February 9 2007
Luisa Mich – The challenges of the NOW Economy
36
Web sites, that is to the dimensions Content and Services
Conceptual considerations, confirmed through the practical
use of the 7Loci meta-model, have also led to a focus on
these “semantic” dimensions: Content and Services issues
depend on the particular aspects that characterize a given
class of Web sites and allow to differentiate beyond quality
performances taken for granted by the user
37. The evaluation schema, Cont'd
The underlying assumption is that the aspects which we
are referring to as “syntactic”, which are general and
therefore are considered for all types of site and in all
domains, are a necessary condition but not sufficient in
themselves to achieve the aims of the site (e.g., the
correct functioning of the site - link, HTML, etc.; its
conformity with standards of language use or of

37
accessibility as described in normatives such as the Web
Content Accessibility Guidelines of the W3C Consortium or
the U.S. Section 508 Standards (Section 508, n.d.), and
can generally be evaluated for the most part automatically
For a sake of completeness, a few questions were added
regarding the proper functioning of the links
(Maintenance) and about languages (Usability)
38. The evaluation schema, Cont'd
The evaluation framework was formulated
by means of an iterative process by a group
of experts in quality and in tourism
The first version of the framework was
tested in order to obtain questions that
WEE-NET
Web Engineering Network
of Excellence
Summer School in La Plata, Argentina
January 29 February 9 2007
Luisa Mich – The challenges of the NOW Economy
38
were unambiguous and dichotomous (high
objectivity in the answers - using the
framework to evaluate a given Web site,
different people will give the same answers
- but also a certain loss of information)

The inspectorial evaluation of the sites was
done in the spring of 2005
The twenty-three questions in the
evaluation framework were answered by a
quality and tourism expert visiting each of

the 204 Web sites
We then calculated the final point totals,
giving one point for each positive: the
“issues” in the framework were all
considered equal in weight

46. Concluding remarks
There few sites that offer functions of e-commerce,
and the number of sites that fail to provide
indispensable information about the hotel and
territory cannot be ignored
The results of the evaluation project confirmed that

46
for some aspects – e.g., the presence of versions of
the site in other languages – the hotels are able to
respond to new trends in the market, but are
nonetheless still bound by a management approach
that is highly individualistic and far from strategies
of destination management
