I notice that some sites have started utilizing TripAdvisor ratings (and reviews) - these include alpharooms (use ratings) and booking.com (use both).

What is the method used to integrate these into a new site I am developing (and possibly existing sites)?

I tried referring to the tripadvisor site for details but that wasn't much help (although it did say they were not signing up new affiliates at the moment).

Many thanks

I've tried to hook up with them as well, but simply not interested, no longer need to and only deal with big established names now..

thanks appreciate the reply.

Yes, they seem pretty unapproachable, but the "I'm bigger than you" arrogance has been the downfall of many a company.

I do like the idea of integrating their reviews into sites (travelsupermarket does it well but lets face it they have to as they are simply a glorified affiliate site) but on the other hand do I really need 500 reviews of one hotel on the other...

I don't want to delve into the psychology of choice but its well known that given 500 or 10 reviews most people actually subconsciously find it easier to make a choice (between multiple providers) with 10 reviews per hotel/whatever

There is an advantage in being small here!
