Travel Affiliate Programs:
If you're ready to enter an exciting
market, online travel has a lot to offer. According to
Expedia close to 100 million people purchased travel
online in the past year. Other sources cite higher
numbers. If you want to be impressed, according
to PhoCusWright in 2005 over 65 billion in
travel will be sold online.
The internet provides a perfect
medium for researching travel destinations. Businesses, and
individuals can visit an exhausting number of websites
that detail the location they are planning on
visiting. Afterwards, these same people can plan and
purchase the necessary travel arrangements. By doing
this online they can often locate the best bargain.
It's not uncommon for someone to
purchase not only the airline ticket, but also book a
hotel & rent a car. If someone is planning on
embarking on a cruise, the internet has a myriad of
options that are too often lacking at a local travel
agency.
If you take into consideration over
20% of car rental bookings were performed online in
the past year, and that these numbers are constantly
growing, there is a lot of room for the small
affiliate to penetrate this market. The numbers for
airline travel, hotels, last minute deals, cruises,
and packaged vacations, are all as impressive.
How one goes about targeting this
market is limitless. Every city in every country, has
a target market. Perhaps no other affiliate market is
as advanced for providing tools to affiliates.
Affiliates can receive private label solutions, XML
customized web interfaces, link generation tools,
branded, and co-branded interfaces.
This is why we have designed this
website. Travel affiliates need a central location to
discuss various programs and the industry in general.
