Advertising & Affiliations

We are two real people, Diane Shaskin & Mark Craft, who are experts on traveling to and staying in Paris. It's what we do, it's what we love. And we love to share what we've learned!

This is our website – we decide what goes on it, what to recommend, and what insiders tips get included. We are never paid to include or recommend anything. We recommend what we believe in, what we have used, and what we like.

But in order to cover our expenses (web hosting, new content and reviews, support, etc.) we link to various affiliate programs (like Amazon.com and others), where we are paid a small commission, but only if you buy the product or service or book a room after reading our review or recommendation and clicking on the link on our page.

Paris Insiders Guide is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com or Amazon.ca.

This is how we're able to provide all the free content on this website, and continue adding to it.

There are a few other ads on the website. Some are generated by a third party ad network (like Google). Those advertisements will be identified as paid advertisements. Some ads are links to other websites we like and want to help promote. We don't get paid for those ads.

None of the ads on our website influence what we write about or recommend.
Clicking from our website costs you nothing. And we only make a commission when you decide to purchase a product or service we recommend. (We only make the commission if you purchase after clicking through from our site. If you want to support Paris Insiders Guide, that's one way to do it.)
It doesn't cost you any more to purchase something you click to from our site. There are no fees to you whatsoever, our service is absolutely free.
