Knowledge of tourism stakeholders on the territory, and its relations, is a basic element for the active manage- ment of any tourist destination. The new information technologies and the popularization of Internet , have created a lot of social relationships among the websites linkeded that have enabled a rapid and widespread promotion of marginal tourist destinations, in response to new approaches to post-fordist tourism, generating a dynamic relationship, benefited of the ra- pid development of TIC’s. In this paper we have examined these relationships among websites, in the case of development of two marginal tourisms in the south of France, in Cap d’Agde, where both tourisms, naturist and swinger, proving the existence of direct relationship between websites in order to confirm the relational dynamics on the territory and the degree of development of marginal tourisms.
