Would you promote a website in the travel industry?

    Hi

    I have a website that I am thinking of putting out to affiliates on Clickbank. I don't want to say too much about it at the moment. The travel industry is on a boom at the moment especially for the cheaper vacation and how to find cheaper holidays. The website will be a yearly subsciption and it will be priced around the $47 mark. Affilates will get 75% of this. This will not be a one page site this will be a huge site with thousands of pages and these pages will generate income too. The sale will be generated when the customer pays the years subscription and completes a form.

    Is this something that any affiliates would be interested in as there is a huge market out there with huge search numbers for these target markets?

    Thanks and any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Pete

    well do not go off doing that right now because not many people are travelling because of the swine flu.

    Yeah......I wouldn't say that travel is red hot at the moment, in fact I'd say it would be somewhat cooling thanks to the swine flu.

    It really depends on what your offering though, it's understandably kind of vague at the moment but what would be your main irresistible offer to the potential buyer?

    Cheap travel is big, and always will be. Obviously there's a downturn right now, but we got over CJD and bird flu OK, so it's just a matter of time before this settles. I'd say go for it. Would I promote it? Well, that depends on exactly what it is in the end, and how well it applies to travel sub niches, but maybe. I'd probably be more likely to buy it myself though :)

    Hi

    Thanks all for the responses I am currently working on how to integrate this with clickbank and how to best achieve overall results. I will let you know when it is near ready and I can take things from there. Hopefully by then the swine flu thing will have settled.

    Thanks

    Pete

    P.S Tiger this is more in teh cheap travel element rather than package holidays and luxury holidays market. This is a way to get a holiday on a very low budget.

    will it be targeted mainly at US or worldwide?

    certainly in the UK, people are travelling overseas less ... but more Europeans are visiting here ...

    It is a good one to promote. But I think currently the travel industry will be slow due to swine flu.

    Swine flu may not be affecting the travel market so much as the global credit crisis.

    In a way, Swine Flu IS the global credit crisis. Imean, c'mon, what a coincidence! They throw us all this BS alltogether, as if we hadn't got enough with the economy, the "war on terrorism" and such.

    Now, I'm not holding anyone "responsible" for the Flu, but it would be nice if we had been at least a little bit prepared for when this kind of trouble arrives.
    The people in charge of things.. they play Monopoly with the world, and then, something comes up, like this Flu, which they cannot contend with.. and it takes everyone underprepared.

    Buh, enough with the chatter. Now, as someone's said above, Travel might not be the hottest niche right now. Either try and think of something else, or simply hold your horses a little bit. It'll pass. It always does. Doesn't it?

    Let's be honest. Most people will promote the business if they will make money from it.

    The problem with cheap travel is that there is so much information on how to do it for cheap, it's sickening. Budget travelers don't like to spend money on information unless it's popular guidebook, but will gladly fork out the money for cheap tickets and accommodations if they're getting a deal.

    But who knows. Can't hurt to try it yourself:cool:.

    Put out there so we can sell it:D!
