Our take
On average, Brits spend 18 nights a year overseas, so it's no surprise that the travel industry is in as high demand as ever. Since its inception in 2011, HolidayPirates has established itself throughout Europe and the United States.
Due to its unparalleled social media audience, boasting 11+ million Facebook fans and 2+ million Instagram followers, HolidayPirates values itself for providing the "best value-for-money travel deals", which rapidly gained the company popularity and a faithful online following.
The company claims to only spend 7% of its marketing budget on traffic, showing how effective its social media strategy has been in generating an organic following.
