Advertising and Sponsorship Policy

Advertising & Sponsorship Policy

Gold-Coast-Australia-Travel-Tips is my personal site. It accepts advertising and other forms of compensation. Such compensation does not influence the information in this site. We always give our honest opinions, findings, beliefs, or experiences.

"Ads by Google" are not selected by me, so if you see a Google ad and a Web page about the same product or service, it is a coincidence.

I only accept non-Google sponsorships from providers of high-quality goods or services. I appreciate their recognition and support of this site.

Rest assured that the actual content on sponsored pages are independent of any sponsorship or affiliate relationship.

Why we have advertising and sponsorships?

The bottom line is, I am passionate about my website and the Gold Coast but it costs me to offer information through a web site, to run and maintain it and to provide some of the features.

I could have charged a fee and had no sponsors nor advertising but I figured most people would end up missing out because they wouldn't have been prepared to pay for the good information.

The reality is, I am only interested in providing you with good information that will help you enjoy the Gold Coast more.

I give my opinion and will show up any warts I know as well as the good points. Ultimately, you need to make your own decision.

Often there is confusion about what affiliation means. Here is my explanation.

I have affiliations with some of the providers of accommodation, tours and other products and services. I sometimes earn a small commission if you click from my site to one of these companies and buy from them.

This is no different from going to a retail store or going to a travel agent.

I appreciate your loyality and support as I continue to bring you new articles and information that I hope you enjoy as you browse my Gold Coast website.

If you have enjoyed the information and found it valuable, I would love you to consider clicking through the links and purchasing through my website.

If not, you are always free to go directly to any of the suppliers. Buying through my website will not cost you any more, but it will help to support the website and enable me to continue bringing relevant and useful information about the Gold Coast.

Please do support my sponsors and recommendations. This site takes time and effort to deliver original content, free, to you. Supporting my sponsors is a WIN-WIN-WIN for you, me, and them.

Thank you very much.

Annie
