YTB has been recognized in Travel Weekly’s 2008 Power List as one of the top leading travel companies the US. Based upon this year’s Travel Weekly Power List, YTB’s ranking is 26th as compared to all other travel companies nation-wide, advancing nine places over last year’s ranking. In addition, YTB earned the highest percentage increase in booked travel as compared to of all travel companies listes in this review. This reflects an increase of 83.3 percent over the previous year’s performance.

The rankings also incorporate travel subsidiaries and corporate structures. This report includes the largest online travel agencies such as Travelocity, Orbitz, Priceline and Expedia.
YTB attributes their growth to the hard work YTB RTA’s have demonstrated on an ongoing basis. Secondly, YTB has proven their committment to ensure that YTB RTA’s have all the tools and support required to be successful. To that end, YTB’s increase over last year’s revenues and upward movement in over-all rankings is a testimony to their effort.
If you are looking to start a home based business , you should consider an online travel agency that has a documented growth trend such as YTB Travel. If you elect to become a home based travel agent to book travel online , take advantage of the proven business tools and training that YTB provides its RTA affiliates.
AND WHAT ABOUT ALL THESE RUMORS ABOUT YTB AND OTHER WORK FROM HOME BUSINESSES?
“Once you become trained and effective within your home business of choice, focus on the business and not the rumor mills that permeate the work from home industry. For example, on a regular basis I recieve numerous phone calls and emails regarding negative rumors about Your Travel Biz (YTB). This is a prehistoric “old school” sales tactic to make you question the business you’re in, and join whatever business they’re pitching at the moment. If their business has made them that wealthy, how do they find the time to sharenegative rumors with anyone who will listen instead of using that time to promote the benefits of their business that they want you to join?”
In my case, I politely listen to their rumor of the day and respond with YTB being up 83% over last year’s performance. This response kinda freezes them, because I experience a long pause before they “thank me” for their time and move on to their next rumor sharing call.
