3 Easy Ways to get more Business for your Vacation Rental

I hope business has picked up? I have some suggestions to help you with your advertising.


First, Google Places is a great free map listing, that’s right FREE! They do offer additional ways to get visitors' attention with some expense, but that is optional. I highly recommend Google places, and it is easy to set up an account here: Google Places
No time to set up an account with Goolgle places? no problem, I’m here to help, just e-mail me: taylor@lodging4vacations.com
Second, do you have a Facebook account for your condo? Facebook has always been a good way to connect with friends and family, but it is also a great way to connect with guests to your rental condo or home. Make a separate account for your condo, a fan page, this way it doesn’t have to be your personal account. No time? Have me help you! I can also contribute with fascinating articles.

Third, have you thought about a short 3 minute video of your rental home’s best features? If you have a video camera I can help you download the movie to Youtube and then I can embed the code on your web page. From Youtube you can link to your page helping it rank better in the search engines. Example: Islamorada Vacation Rental
Let me know if you are interested?


Also how about an online guestbook? With so much competition, recommendations are huge! So set out that guestbook for your visitors and then e-mail me any reviews, or suggest your guests go to an online review site such as Tripadvisor or Yelp. OR we can create one for you online.

Hottest New Trends


According to AOL Money and Finance, Google Maps is Hot! We in the vacation rental industry have known this all along. "Maps" being one of the most searched terms is as relevant to "Location! Location! Location!" as in Real Estate. For example: http://lodging4vacations.com/sunsetbeach/#map


This is a free map from Google showing property location, restaurants, ski or beach areas, museums activities....etc. So if you own a vacation rental, market your location!!!


Send or add your property address in an e-mail to your web advertising representative and be sure to add in the subject line. Please add a Google map to my web ad.
