Marketing Tours and Adventures with ToursToGo.com.au

We have many websites that target holidays and accommodation sales. Mostly, they are commission oriented and relate to clients using Web Reservation Systems. Recently, we’ve been looking at new ways to gain income from our Holiday Guide websites. We use AdSense from Google to include relevant ad links in our pages which has been ok.

A new option that seems good is Tour Bookings.  Tours, Adventure Services and the like all compliment our client’s accommodation bookings. Tours in many ways seem like they could be sold through Booking Centre, but we have found that tours are just different enough from accommodation that it doesn’t work well.

So, I’ve started a new relationship with a company called ToursToGo. They have a booking engine that the tour operators can maintain and an affiliate system that allows us to link to any product in their database.

I’ve just updated the page on Australia Holiday Guide about Airlie Beach and the Whitsunday Islands. It will be interesting to see how it goes. Commissions for bookings are attractive: 5% on most products. The guests can book direct with the operator and there is little to do as the affiliate… other than get interested buyers to the website.

Please let me know if you come across other products that compliment a travel website.
