Sažetak
The development of information and communication technology has created a solid technological framework for the application of new technologies in different environments. The implementation of cyberspace tools has changed social interactions in general as well as the technologies and advertising methods. Today, information and communication technology allows users to access information via telecommunications. The means whereby messages are conveyed
include, among others, the Internet, wireless networks, advanced mobile devices, and other communication media. Numerous studies have shown that an appropriate use of electronic marketing activities can be useful in achieving various tourist promotion goals. However, today’s level of technological development allows modern consumers, i.e. users, to search for information on a tourist destination in real time, and also before they arrive at the destination through mobile technology. The paper starts from the assumption that in the near future tourist destinations that provide information to consumers through information and communication technology will benefit the most. The aim of the paper is to define key factors conducive to increased online presence and use of online services. The research conducted will give a clear picture of the current situation in terms of the use of information and communication infrastructure in the promotion of tourism which can be used to develop and propose an appropriate strategy for the management of electronic marketing
activities aimed at promoting Croatian tourism.
