I want this oneA website that gets guests to book with you directly.
Every booking that comes through an agency arrives with a commission attached. A site of your own is how you keep some of them.
01 · Your customers
What they’re actually trying to find out
Three questions, usually on a phone, usually in under a minute. A site that answers them wins the job before anyone else is even rung.
01
What do the rooms actually look like?
Big photographs of every room, not one wide shot of the best one. Guests will look at every picture you give them.
02
Is it free on my dates?
The single question every visitor has. If they can’t answer it in a few seconds they go back to the agency listing.
03
What’s nearby, and what’s included?
Breakfast, parking, whether dogs are allowed, what there is to do. These decide it as much as the room does.
02 · What goes on it
What I’d put on a site for guest houses
Not a template with your logo dropped in. This is what actually earns its place on a site for your trade.
- Every room photographed properly, and priced
- A live calendar or a clear availability enquiry — the first question, answered
- Direct booking made obviously better: a lower price, a late checkout, something
- Breakfast, parking, dogs, family rooms — the things people actually filter on
- What’s worth doing nearby, in your own words rather than a tourist board’s
- Loading fast on a phone with one bar of signal, because that’s where people book
03 · Price
What it costs
Business website
A page per service and a proper gallery. Better if you want to be found for each job separately.
