NY-based KickApps is announcing a new partnership today with Newsweek's Budget Travel Web site. The new part of Budget Travel will enable readers to maintain a travel profile and share tips, photos, video, and Travel Journals with other site visitors. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

This deal provides Budget Travel with tons of new, search-engine friendly content for basically free. They will be able to get their readers to write content which will appear on the site without paying the readers who contribute. I guess the payment is the ability to read other's travel stories. Oh yea, and don't forget that Budget Travel can also monetize the heck out of the new content!

KickApps recently partnered with WorldNow and also launched the 3.0 version of their social media platform.

Compete shows Budget Travel having approximately 200,000-300,000 U.S. visitors per month.
