MyGola.Com : Paid Version of TripAdvisor

Posted on 02 February 2011 by Adviction

MyGola.com is a startup founded by Indian Internet Junkies.

The two founder members who are young and IIT grads are betting big on the project. Namely Anshuman and Prateek Sharma are the ones who have done some good work in the past and are looking ahead with the future of travel via Mygola.

My Gola

Mygola is a new concept where they are trying to revolutionize the travel deal concept by answering all the possible questions that a traveler can have. The free version only lets user ask one question how ever the Paid subscription gives access to more variety of answers.

The concept is one-one version of TripAdvisor where users search for feedbacks about places and hotels of a particular area where they are planning there next travel. This seems fine to certain extent however with vast popularity of Tripadvisor and then with unbiased feedbacks generated by users make it a much more viable product in comparison to My Gola.
