TheBestTravelled.com is a unique site for everybody who travels, from the obsessive country collectors to the novices with a general interest in the world. Simultaneously focusing on each and everyone of the regions of the world as well as the people who explore it, the website also serves as an immense online library to travel sites, while doing all of this in a super elegant, modern and functional design. The aim is to entertain its users while providing useful, unbiased, independent and non-commercial information and being a social network of sorts.

The main focus of the website is on the 1281 regions of the world it defines. Each region has its own sub page, which contain the stories that users have written, as well as an overall mark given on a number of criteria. These marks serve to create a ranking of regions by popularity, ultimately pointing to the most favored regions as judged by the members. Each regional sub page also includes links to non-commercial sites that can serve for further research, all of them included after careful consideration of their relevance and quality to the users. These links are categorized ...
... in the expanding (currently 9000+) links section, which features categories on personal blogs and travel literature, among others.

The Best Travelled is one of the few websites to also focus on the travelers themselves, not only the places they visit. The members can fill in their travel history in as much detail as they desire, either specifying very vaguely where they have been, or being very specific, with accurate dates and descriptions of their trips. The progressive travel maps, a unique feature to the website, allows each traveler to follow his ‘travel career’ and see how much of the world they had visited in any particular year.

Inputting future trips allows the community to know where its members are planning to go, thereby facilitating contacts and social networking. This function is further enhanced by the ability to follow specific members and then contact them through the website without compromising their privacy or revealing their email addresses. Moreover, the forum is a feature where travelers can interact through knowledge and opinion exchange.

All of the above is achieved through an elegant, non-cluttered design. Much attention has been given to the choice of serious, yet appealing colors, and fonts which maintain the integrity of the site while also pointing to its entertainment value. The intricate maps are one of the primary draws for the connoisseur. The programming, while extremely complex, involving calculations and listings of so many regions, is extremely simple and clear in functionality, with a member’s ‘account’ the primary tool for controlling one’s profile.

Already available in English, Spanish and Russian, there are plans for further language versions of the website. Apart from the development of additional statistical lists, further research into links and the inclusion of many more websites, further plans include participation in leading Travel Fairs and partnerships with travel companies to organize unique travels to the less explored destinations of the world.
