Following our article earlier in the week regarding affiliate data feeds, we have just been updated that UK rentals portal Holiday Lettings has just made their first XML feed available.
The feed contains listings for their latest special offers and last minute deals, which are especially busy at this time of year.
The data is available via CSV or XML and contains a thumbnail image, location, coded URL, dates and description of the offer. Unfortunately we couldn't see any further property information but it will enable developers to create headline discount listings with photos.
To start promoting their latest deals sign up to their affiliate scheme with AffiliateWindow. Their current referral rate is £1.25 per enquirer (it's a pay per lead scheme) or £2.50 for certain destinations. The network is reporting an average EPC of 10p - not particularly good but their scheme hasn't been running for long enough to get a solid average. We think it's still worth a dabble for travel webmasters.
We hope to see some bigger datasets available in the near future and will keep you updated.
