As the backbone of the economic contributor to the Gross National Profit (GNP), tourism sector plays
a vital role in creating employment opportunities. For that reason, attention is given to the travel
agencies’ operators to improve productivity and to be competitive in the travel and tour markets.
However, in reality, not all companies adopt and use effectively, or even use, information technology.
The gap lies between the realities of the actual usage of information technology. A deeper
understanding of the current demographic profile and web technologies and e-business adoption
practice is vital to know the current trends and practices are implemented among SME entrepreneurs.
This study provides a general description of SME’s travel agencies background and web-technology
and e-business adoption profile in Malaysia. A total of 313 respondents from SMEs owners/managers

descriptive analysis SPSS was used in describing the web technologies adoption among Malaysia
SMEs travel agencies. The findings of the study revealed that Malaysia SMEs still attach to the
