My name is Mike Miller and I created Florida Backroads Travel to give me a way to share my extensive knowledge of Florida, especially my travels in those less developed regions we call Old Florida.
Mike Miller
I have lived in Florida since 1960. After graduating as a civil engineer from the University of Florida, I spent many years living and working in most areas of Florida.
Projects I've worked on include Walt Disney World, EPCOT, Universal Studios and hundreds of other major developments from Pensacola to Key West. During my engineering career I developed a love and understanding of Old Florida that is reflected in the pages of this website.
From the very beginning I had the privilege of traveling all over the state on business and pleasure. My nature is to avoid the main highways and get from Point A to Point B on the less traveled paths. My love for those places I discovered on the back roads led me to the idea of this website.
In addition to those back road jaunts, I have lived in Pensacola, Jacksonville, Gainesville, Tampa, Orlando, Winter Park, Melbourne, Merritt Island, Indialantic, Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Boca Raton, Jupiter, Key Biscayne, Naples and Mount Dora.
I also became very interested in Florida history. I am a member of The Florida Historical Society, and have belonged to most of the local historical groups in places I've lived.
The website has information on several hundred towns and attractions, including a bit of their history. I look for interesting restaurants and lodging opportunities in the quieter areas of Florida.
You will also find dozens of maps describing day trips in all of the major regions of Florida. The website has hundreds of informative articles on wineries, museums, state parks and other attractions around the state. It also has listings of major Florida annual events, art festivals and craft shows.
The site has been steadily growing since I created it in 2009. It is now in the top 1/2 of 1% of all websites in the world in terms of visitor traffic. Even though I had no experience with creating a web business, I was able to do so using the tools provided by SiteSell, a company that provides a system called SBI! (Solo Build It!) that gave me all the tools to create a successful website.

Some important facts about Florida Backroads Travel as of March 31, 2017. DISPLAY ADVERTISING All of our display ad options use 150x150 static banners that link to your website. You provide the image. Only static images will be accepted. Rates range from $ 10/month to $ 200/month. Payments are accepted through PayPal. You pay for 2 months in advance or more if you'd like. Discounts are available if you pay one year in advance. SPONSORED CONTENT Florida Backroads Travel features selected sponsored content on some of its pages. We value our credibility with our site visitors and are very selective about who we accept as sponsors. Sponsored content is typically a brief article about an establishment or event that would be interesting to our visitors. In the case of lodging places, we inspect and stay in the place before writing about it. If the sponsor is a restaurant, we eat there, and if a winery we pay the establishment a visit and sip some wine. The article is always followed by a link to the content sponsor. The pages we currently create sponsored content for are those under the navigational headings of Getaways: Fish Camps and Mom&Pop Lodging, Tourist Attractions, Florida Restaurants, Historic Hotels and Florida Wineries. The rate for sponsored content is $ 100 per article per month. Payment is by PayPal and is for 3 months in advance. If you are interested in a display ad or a sponsorship, please contact us so we can determine availability and make arrangements for your ad or content. If you have any questions, call Mike Miller at 239-248-0051. The general procedure is for you to tell us which page you want your ad on, then send us the ad image and pay for the ad with credit card or PayPal by clicking on the buttons above.
