Hotel industry is rocking. Tons of $$ are there every month. But you know what... the same problem is here also.. the genuine traffic. If you can bring genuine traffic to your website then its is just a super cool niche. And yes, for doing that.. you need to have some genuine experience in hotels industry. Don't expect that you'll learn it in a month and put lots of worth in your website and get tons of traffic to it and hence 3-4 figure income every month.
I only making $100 in one year which is very poor! my site http://cheapesthotelsbooking.com plan to sell if someone interest
I'm based in Indonesia and travel is very huge here. From working and talking with a few travellers who run their own blog and earn commission, there are a few things that work (at least from what I know). For starters, you need to do more than just leave an affiliate link and hope for the best. Sometimes, the best way to earn from travel affiliates is by producing unique content that work well with your viewers. For example, write a travelogue and recommend specific hotels or flights to your readers. Another good approach is to actually 'sell' custom itineraries. Not everyone can plan a good trip. This is where travel blogs come in. With custom itineraries that users can easily copy, recommending hotels and earning affiliate commissions are so much easier to do. Users will love it because they have an entire trip already planned for them. Lastly, this is something discoveryourindonesia.com does. Instead of making a generic itineraries, the site lets you have a one-on-one session with Firsta (a well-known traveler). She will help you plan an entire trip to Indonesia based on your specific requirements. How much can you actually earn from travel affiliates? Well, that depends on so many factors. But I've seen travel sites (and travel bloggers) earning an upward of $3,000 a month from affiliate commissions alone, so anything is possible. It's how you get there that matters.
