Finally, in recognition of the new EU ePrivacy Directive that has just come into force - I use Google Analytics & Statcounter to monitor visitor numbers to the website so I know what works and what doesn't! Secondly, I use some affiliates - these are companies that pay me a small commission (typcially 2-4% of any booking) for directing my visitors to their website. The reason I do this is that this small income helps me in providing an income to help the continuing running and development of Recommended Family Holidays - rest assured, it is certainly not part of my core business model! Such affiliates include Hoseasons, Keycamp and Premier Holidays plus the advertisers you see in the bottom left hand side of the page. They use "cookies" (a small piece of code) so that if you make a booking within say, 30 days, I receive the small commission. I just wanted to let you all know how it works - without them, I can't run Recommended Family Holidays! |
