Hi guys, need some help on getting this right. Bit of background. I run a travel website that is very geographically targetted. However, the area name coincides with a large tour operators' name so I get a lot of traffic that should go to them. So, here is my thinking. I can become an affiliate of said tour operator and then redirect traffic based upon that one keyword phrase to either forward them directly having put my affiliate ID onto it or onto a specific page where they can then click through to the tour operator.
So here are my issues. I am happy with how to do this technically but I am unsure on how good an idea this is in as far as would Google frown upon me doing this and which method would be best. I don't want to jeopordize my sites ranking as it does well and earns me some good pocket money. On the other hand if I did redirect I have calculated that it would earn me around another £3,000 a year based on my site stats. So, any help on how to handle this would really be greatly appreciated. Ask any questions if I have been unclear on any point as I really want to get this right. Thanks very much in advance.
