Native advertising for travel brands

Reach travelers while they read, before they search

We put your offer among the stories on news, travel and lifestyle sites, in front of audiences built from intent data. Run it yourself or hand it to us; either way, you and your team see every result live.

What it is

Ads among the articles people read, labeled as ads.

A native ad is a sponsored story or recommendation beside an article on a news, travel or lifestyle site. It matches the look of the page around it and is always marked as an ad. For travel it matters because people read about a place long before they search for it.

Why it works for travel

Search is capped. Native is not.

Only so many people search for what you sell, and you are already buying most of them. Native reaches the ones who have not searched yet. They act less often than people who have, so the work is buying them well enough that it still pays, and showing you whether it did.

  • Before the search

    People read about a place long before they search for it. Native reaches them while they read, when the trip is still being chosen.

  • Near where they leave from

    For tours, cruises and flights, people within reach of the airport or port the trip leaves from. For hotels, the cities with direct flights to you.

  • In the markets you choose

    By state, region or city, wherever you want travelers from, timed ahead of the season you are selling.

How we run it

The audience, the page, the sites and the report, run by the same people.

Native pays when all four are right, so none of them is handed off. The people who plan your campaign buy the media every day and report what it brought.

  • The audience

    People already looking for a trip like yours: what they search for, the newsletters they open, the trips and places they read about. No addresses and no personal data. How we find them

  • The page

    An advertorial page written from your own website, in different angles tested against each other, with the inquiries and cost per inquiry for each. Included when we run it, a paid extra when you do.

  • The sites

    Every site your money ran on, named, and judged by what it brought when the inquiry comes through our page or our tag. The ones that send clicks and nothing else are cut.

  • The report

    Live, not a PDF a month later: delivery against target, the visitors who arrived, and what each site, ad and audience brought. A link you can send to anyone.

How it starts

Two ways to work, and no long commitment either way.

Run it yourself in your own portal, or hand it to us. Either way we build the audiences, buy the media and report every number live. You never open an ad account.

01

Run it yourself.

For brands that want more eyes on their deals. Set up and manage your own campaigns with your own headlines, images and links, changed whenever you like, on an audience we build for each campaign from your page and brief.

You set your own price per click, from prepaid credit. We check each campaign within one working day, then check it daily and suggest what to change, and your portal reports it live. Advertorial pages are a paid extra.

  • Your own price per click, from prepaid credit
  • No minimum term
  • An audience built for each campaign
  • Advertorial pages as a paid extra

Campaigns pause at zero. Top up any time.

02

Or hand it to us.

Everything in self-serve, managed for you like a personal client. Send us your campaigns, or just the goal, and we build the advertorial pages, test their angles against each other and keep improving the whole path.

You keep the same portal and the same audiences, and see every test and every result live. You pay a monthly fee plus your clicks, starting with a three-month pilot, and we move at a speed big agencies can’t match.

  • Advertorial pages built and tested for you
  • Managed hands-on, like a personal client
  • A monthly fee plus your clicks
  • A three-month pilot, invoiced monthly

After the pilot, month to month.

Straight answers

What buyers ask about native advertising.

  • Paid ads that sit among the content on news, travel and lifestyle sites, usually as sponsored stories or recommendations beside an article. They match the look of the page around them, and they are always labeled as ads.

  • People read about a place long before they search for it, and native reaches them while they read, which search ads cannot. Those readers act less often than people who have already searched, so native pays only when the audience is right, the page is built for them and every site is judged by what it brings. That is the work.

  • Search reaches people who have already typed the question, and there are only so many of them. Native reaches the ones who have not searched yet, picked by what they read, what they have searched before and the travel emails they open.

  • By what it brought, not by clicks. Every inquiry, booking, guide request or referral that comes through a page we build, or our tag on yours, carries the site and the ad that sent it, and your report shows each site’s clicks beside what it brought, live.

  • No. We buy the media in our own accounts, so you never open one. You choose the words, the pictures and your price per click, we build the audience from your page and brief, or hand all of it to us.

  • A page between the ad and your own site, written like an article: it tells your story first, then takes the request or sends the reader on to you. We write it from your own website in different angles and styles and test them against each other. It is included when we run it for you, and a paid extra if you run it yourself.

  • Yes, in your own ad accounts. Give us your Meta, Google Ads or LinkedIn pixel ids in your portal and the ad network fires them on every impression and click of your ads; on a page we host they load with the reader’s consent, with a lead event on the thank-you so you can leave out the people who already asked. Clicks through to your own site arrive tagged, so your existing pixels catch those too. The audiences build where you already advertise. We keep none of it, and there is no charge for it.

  • Run it yourself and you set your own price per click, paid from prepaid credit, and campaigns pause when it runs out; advertorial pages are a paid extra. If we run it for you, you pay a monthly fee plus your clicks, with advertorial pages included, starting with a three-month pilot and then month to month.

  • Clicks start the day a campaign goes live. Native takes a few weeks to learn which audiences, pages and sites work best for what you sell, so judge it over weeks, not days. That is why a campaign we run for you starts with a three-month pilot.

  • No. Nobody can honestly promise a number before a campaign has run. We show you what happened, live, in a report you can check against your own analytics.

  • We check a campaign within one working day of you sending it, and once we say yes, it is live within three more working days. Changes to a live campaign are checked within one working day too.
