Part of the reason why I started TripTie was simply out of frustration. Trip planning is difficult enough. Other travel sites, although packed with good information, make it difficult to sift through. It doesn’t help that some of these sites are overflowing with ads; I never knew if what I was clicking on would take me to the information I was looking for or another site! And don’t even get me started on those pop-up and pop-over ads…

I don’t want TripTie to become one of these sites. At the same time though, we need some ad inventory. So after a talk I had with David over at Google Adsense, I decided to experiment some with their ad platform — you’ll notice the ads throughout the site.

What do you think? Are they good, useful, okay, or downright annoying?

And, if you are interested in advertising on TripTie, please feel free to contact me. We have very attractive rates right now.
