More growing interest in traveling to villages has made the village have to be embraced as a partner in the start-up of village tourism service applications so that they have clarity in the production chain and are able to move the wheels of village tourism activities more clearly. However, the main challenge for local tourism service start-ups is the analysis of potential customers needed to develop applications with a variety of features in them. There are two forms of tourism service applications, namely in the form of website applications and applications based on android / IOS.

“…Dalam proses mengunggah foto atau video, keberadaan hashtag yang relevan dengan unggahan sangat penting sehingga orang lain dapat dengan mudah mencari unggahan tertentu (Knapp & Baum, 2015).

Dengan kata lain, pengguna media sosial dapat menggunakan hashtag untuk mencari informasi terkait perjalanan.…”

Social media basically reshapes the way information is distributed and consumed. Through user-generated content, Instagram users become active players and act as providers and connoisseurs of information. Instagram users can freely share their travel experiences through uploads that include hashtags and geotags. Through searching using hashtags and geotags, tourists can help with initial expectations. This study aimed to analyse the process of forming tourism expectations through hashtags and geotagging on social media Instagram. The research method used was a qualitative method with data collection through interviews with 10 informants. This study revealed the role of user involvement in hashtags and geotags in shaping expectations. Information search support features such as hashtags and geotags have been shown to support the formation of initial expectations of tourists, ranging from geographical descriptions of places to nearby accommodations. In addition, the visual content factor that attracts the attention and information contained in the content through the tag or text feature also plays a role for user decision making.

In the future, the importance and usage rate of the Internet will increase gradually year by year. However, in the case of frequently browsed news web pages, mass news information derived from visual design elements or different layout designs may affect the preferences of users from different demographics and socio-economic backgrounds. This is due to the dissimilarities between their physical and psychological limitations. The purpose of this study is to investigate users' white-space ratio preferences for news web pages. We tested the top ten online Chinese and English websites, 20 news web pages in total. Two statements were picked from the system usability scale (SUS) and the visual aesthetics of website inventory (VisAWI) to evaluate these samples. We took these two statements as questionnaire questions. They are the following: Q1 ''I think that I would like to use this system frequently'' and Q2 ''Everything goes together on these web pages.'' The design of the questionnaire was based on a five-point Likert scale. The research variables include age, gender, education, occupation, white-space ratio, along with the other demographic properties. Our results indicated that there are significant differences between age, white-space ratio, education, occupation, news sources, computer usage time, and computer usage history. The group aged between 31-45 years old scored all samples higher than other groups. None prefer too high (90%) or too low (50%) white-space ratio. It is necessary to accumulate more preferences from different groups prior to the coming age of AI and machine learning.
