    I used booking.com for years. They paid reliably and a good percentage (I think I got it up to 15% by the end). That was in the days when I had a few hundred hotel sites. I tried hotelscombined who were ok but they are pay per click as opposed to pay per booking and this never paid as much as the booking. Also booking.com had a very nice xml feed. I recommend them.

    Thanks folks, much appricited!

    Another followup question that I hope you could help me out with, as I'm trying to figure out how much an avarage commission I should expect. As It's a new project, I have no data to rely on. However I know I will be reciving 10% in comission.

    Any generic figures you could share?

    Typically with Booking.com anywhere between £5 and £50.

    Bear in mind you are getting a percentage of their percentage. Unless you are directly dealing with the hotels, processing the payment etc you're not going to get more.

    Very competitive market if you are planning on getting any organic clicks.

    The thread is almost as old as me, so although your advice is appreciated, it might be a little bit late.
