Who do I work with as an affiliate?

Inish View uses affiliate links from Booking.com a trusted brand within the travel sector.

What are affiliate links?

Affiliate links are links with a specific URL that contains an affiliate ID. This means that every time you click on one of my affiliate links, the URL has an ID from me, so if you book something through that link I will earn a commission.

Clicking on an affiliate link and buying something through that link (for example a stay in a hotel I recommend) is at no extra cost to you. It’s just a way to support me and this website.

Why do I use affiliate links?

I use affiliate links to generate income from this website. Having a website costs money and writing content costs time. So affiliate links are a way for me to earn an income from this website and to keep it alive.
