EcoTravel Africa's primary objective is to promote eco tourism by building mutually beneficial alliances between ourselves, the media, travel writers, photographers, and the travel industry.
We have found Google AdSense™ to be the most effective way to generate an equitable income from all our hard work!
The Media:
EcoTravel Africa has a mutually beneficial relationship with the printed media industry (magazines and newspapers). By virtue of our substantial advertising expenditure, we have negotiated the inclusion of "promotional" articles written by our travel writers. These high quality articles are provided free of charge to the magazines and newspapers.
Travel Writers:
Eco Travel Africa's travel writers are eco-travellers themselves -- they write their articles while they are travelling. All Eco Travel Africa travel writers are volunteers! Some "donate" articles to the EcoTravel Africa website as a means of gaining exposure for their work
Photographers:
EcoTravel Africa's photographers are both hobbyists and professionals. Photographers "donate" images / photographs to the EcoTravel Africa website as a means of gaining exposure for their work -- each pic has a credit link to an EcoTravel Africa webpage about the photographer or the photographers website e.g. Photographer: Nigel Dennis Wildlife Photography. Although the royalty free images and photos are free for anyone to use, EcoTravel Africa will soon have an online Stock Photo Store where professional photographers can sell their photographs.
Please leave the preset SUBJECT LINE -- "Photograph for EcoTravel Site" -- as is!
