Sam, if you're really interested in starting your own online travel site, you need to get ALL of the facts about both companies to make an educated decision. Not just from one side. If you would like more info, feel free to contact me at e-zgo@cox.net. |

Hi there, Thanks you for your interest. I am also a professional Domainer in that, I have a few hundred Top Level Domains. I have recently had WorldYTB.com appraised... Some of the most important things to consider when purchasing a domain name are: extension ( .com ) being the most sought after Does it fit your market niche ( are you selling a travel planner or are you selling YTB?) Is your domain brand-able? Will others want it? What increases the "value" of a domain is its "usability" Is it powerful amongst your peers domains? When people search YTB will they be directed to your website or will your domain get lost in the thousands of others? Another important thing many people forget is that a domain must be easy to remember, easy to say, and catchy. Just like "GoDaddy.com" people remember that very easily. So that also increases you value tremendously. All of these exponentially increase the value of a domain. Domains are "Virtual real estate" Pizza.com recently sold for $2.5 million! While others like 4vacations.com is currently selling for $58,200. Being virtual real estate, domain values increase each year as the number of quality available domains decreases. Basically a supply and demand thing. To answer your question about your domain, it may be very difficult to stand out in a crowd of others with a domain with 5 characters with a little ambiguity to it. WorldYTB.com has been appraised at $21,500 I would make a special offer to the first person within the month iof July for $6,500 (Long story, I am trying to raise enough money to visit a friend in Europe for a wedding for 15 days-etc for three of us and that's what it will cost) lol just desperate. If you visit sedo.com My domain is avail there- just type it in. Thank you for you consideration Peggy |

hi peggy- i just want other people who want to travel to find my website. Really, working for ytb in my opinion is a type of job where the most biz you will get will be when you pass out biz cards and word of mouth. But, at the same time I would love to have a great domain that would be "catchy" and perhaps some people may stumble upon it. Let me know if you have any ideas that would be catchy and available. I would be happy to pay you if you have an idea. I would love to by the worldytb....i wish i had 6000! I just want average people who dont even know what ytb is to findme to book travel. if you have any advice, i would be greatly appreciative! I have 2 children, work from home ( kids birthday party biz) and need extra income. I rally hope it is successful! I put a lot of energy in whatever i do...so we will see what happens. As for the name of my website I am stuck. hope you get to take that trip!!! jennie |

Hi Jennie, Domain names "organically" produce visitors to your website if they are easy to remember and contain a great keyword for seachability. People searching for YTB will automatically be directed to your website by default due to the domain containing YTB in it. This not only allows people to book travel but also sign up. And the name alone is as Grand as it gets. Their are two ways of looking at a domain: One, you will want to optimize your domain so it is in the top 10 on Google, Yahoo and other browsers. You can optimize any domain for a small fee from godaddy etc... This is one of the single most overlooked things by people wanting to start an on line business. I will give you an example of one of my websites statistics. I had a website business and did not optimize it - I received about 3 organic hits per month. (I was clueless about websites programing etc...) So I talked to a million people, I read a million books and even hired a programmer to help optimize the site. I now get roughly 3,950 visits per month! Handing out business cards is always great- but don't get caught in the same thinking that the "others who never make it" fall into ( I did that very thing). To be successful you will really have to crank up your website and gain thousands of new visitors. This is where it gets fun and profitable. This is the entire reason that people pay millions of dollars for a domain name. It is because the domain has excellent "search-ability" and gains the most traffic. Profit comes from traffic. Unfortunately, like any real business a small investment is usually what it takes. The other neat part of making your website is that you can have free ads by Google and other affiliate programs on your website that actually pay you when people just click on them. Here is a great example: The social network called MySpace incurs $77 million each month by having ads on their page and millions of viewers do in fact click on the ads which |

PART II ...generates enormous revenue for them. Just remember, you don't want people to stumble upon your site...you want them to be Directed to your site! That's the goal with search engine optimization and your domain is the single most important investment in your business believe it or not. Here are some articles that can help with your journey. technology.inc.com/internet/articles/200707/campbell.html This next link has a vast amount of information on the left column to peek at. technology.inc.com/internet/articles/200707/campbell.html Just remember, you are never stuck with your domain name. You can always find and use another one. The biggest problem is that most, if not all, of the good domains are already gone forever- unless someone is selling one. Let me know how it all works out for you. Best of luck, Peggy |

I think that Traverus has an honest and reliable system and I am in it with them for the long run. I wish everyone the best with their travel business and do hope that you treat your customers, partners with honesty and respect. Yours truly, |

If you're really looking into getting involved in the travel industry you really have to do your due diligence on any of the travel programs available in the market today. I've also looked into both Traversus and YTB (and several others). Unfortunately, there are several problems that come up with these program. First, it does require high start-up costs (anywhere between $300 - $500). Due to the higher costs of necessities these days, people are trying to reduce costs more than ever. Secondly, as you know the travel industry is a very competitive industry. Both Traversus and YTB ask you to purchase your own travel portal. What happens? You will then be in competition with several hundreds, if not thousands, of travel portals in the market. What's worse is that you will also be in competition with your fellow reps, as they too will try to outsell you with their own travel portal. Apparently, a travel program called Travelencia (escalade.travelencia.com) has eliminated the above problems. Not only that they have a very low start-cost of a one-time fee of $50 and a monthly fee of either $19.95 or $49.95, they've also created just one travel portal for the entire company! They also offer a unique package of consumer benefits and a copyrighted compensation plan that you will never see anywhere else. In the event that you decide to go with Travelencia, I highly recommend that you register through a business building system called Unselfish Wealth (escalade.travelencia.com). This system is designed to ensure that you will get results and succeed with your Travelencia business. For any questions email us at unselfishwealth@teamgdiprosuccess.ws |

Don't do either. Go to www.ossn.com YTB IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. ANY INSTANT TRAVEL AGENT PROGRAM IS CORRUPT. DO IT ON YOUR OWN. FOLLOW YOUR STATES REGULATORY PROGRAMS. FILE YOUR OWN TRAVEL AGENCY LICENSE IN YOUR CITY. (IT'S JUST APPLYING FOR IT) PAY FOR YOUR STATE'S CERTIFIED TRAVEL AGENCY LICENSE. GET ERRORS AND OMMISSION INSURANCE. EVERYTHING YOU NEED IS ON OSSN SITE YOU DON'T HAVE TO USE ANYBODY ELSE'S IATA BECAUSE IF YOU FOLLOW OSSN'S LEAD YOU WILL APPLY FOR YOUR OWN
TRUE CODE IATA IS RUN BY IATAN. DON'T GET FOOL BY A $500.00 MEMBERSHIP FEE OR ANY MONTHLY FEES TO USE SOMEBODY ELSES IATA. YOU WILL HAVE YOUR YEARS EXPERIENCE AS YOUR OWN AGENCY AND THEN QUALIFY FOR YOUR OWN IATAN NUMBER IN THE FUTURE TO BE SEEN AS A REAL TRAVEL AGENT MOST STATES ARE GOING AFTER THOSE MLM TRAVEL COMPANIES AND SHUTTLING THEM DOWN. YTB I KNOW FOR A FACT IS ONE OF THEM. FOLLOW MY ADVICE STAY AWAY FROM INSTANT TRAVEL AGENCIES AND START YOUR OWN FROM THE GROUND UP. |

Thanks for this interesting info. I visited the website for Travelencia above (escalade.travelencia.com) and I've learned that they don't sell travel agent sites like the others do. Instead their main product is a discount membership which will guarantee the lowest prices for each member. Membership business is booming and I wish to have it with a travel program. I will go for Travelencia soon. |

This is true, but the great thing about ytb's travel site is you have it for life, you make a 60% commission on your own travel and customers...why not make money too! But, that is a nice feature of the other... |

Hi! I really like YTB. It's taken me a few months to really get going but now it is paying off!I have been consistently networking and marketing myself online and it has been worth the effort! I have come up with a lot of strategies to promote my website so that anyone online can find me...You have to be somewhat clever and find a niche of travel that you like so that you can use that angle to market yourself. Travel is so broad...Some of the things that I have done have really really paid off... Please let me know if you ever have any questions, just email me and I can help you get with ideas to promote your site. It's a challenge bc all of the other reps for either company have the same mirrored website..so I feel like the approaches that I have come up with have been quite good to overcome this part. I feel like the internet has more customers vs family and friends...let me know if i can help yu brainstorm..I love it! If any of you want to join my team, you will truly benefit! jennie@myeasytravelplanner.com |

You can never go wrong with Travelencia. Travelencia uses a team-building system called Unselfish Wealth (www.myunselfishwealth.info). This system is designed so that everyone gets results in their Travelencia business. I've looked at both Traversus and YTB as well as other travel business programs, and I have to inform you that Travelencia's compensation plan is definitely the best. With Unselfish Wealth as the residual income builder, I really don't see how you'll fail with Travelencia. |
