Q. How do you make your money?
A: We’re working on it. Make Travel Fair was setup without any form of budget or funding. The site is the result of a couple of years of self-taught web design and as a result the outgoings are minimal. We pay a small annual fee to retain our domain name and to have our site hosted on a server that belongs to someone else. Development of the site and Make Travel Fair is led by Stephen Chapman who has recently begun work for WHL.
