What the Australian data shows this period

1,110

New Zealand recommendations drew on 1,110 distinct sources

Across the five measured destinations, 30,143 citations resolved to 1,110 separate web domains during the measurement period.

968

Singapore carries the densest citation record of any destination measured

13,570 citations resolved to 968 separate web domains in a single city-state, more citations than any other destination measured this period.

2,073

Australian AI hotel recommendations drew on 2,073 distinct sources

Across the nine published destinations, 60,147 citations resolved to 2,073 separate web domains during the measurement period.

13 to 23

Queenstown is measured almost twice as deeply as Wellington

Queenstown carries 23 measured recommendation categories, including ski and wedding markets that do not exist elsewhere in the country. Wellington carries 13.

One city, nineteen recommendation markets

Singapore is measured across 19 recommendation categories, including conference and exhibition, stopover and layover, and medical stay. Nine are published here.

13 to 27

Category depth varies more than twofold between Australian destinations

Sydney carries 27 measured recommendation categories in this period; Darwin carries 13. The number of distinct ways travellers ask for a hotel is not uniform across a country.

9 to 53

A luxury market can be a fraction of the size of a family market

Within the published core categories, Auckland Family ranks 53 properties and Wellington Luxury ranks 9. Category size, not destination size, sets the competitive field.

7 to 51

Airport and transit is a seven-property market

Singapore's airport and transit category ranks 7 properties; its budget category ranks 51. Two very different competitive problems inside one city.

11 to 85

Ranking populations differ sharply by category

Within the published core categories, Melbourne Family ranks 85 properties while Melbourne Airport & Transit ranks 11. A category is a market, and markets are not the same size.
