 Why list in the 'Exclusive Travel' Directory?
There are four primary ways to get bookings.
1. On a booking agents site (Booking.com etc).
2. Travel Directories, sites and blogs.
3. Social media.
4. All of the above.
Needless to say, successful businesses in the tourism industry use number 4.
While being on sites such as Booking.com and others, will bring you much business, there is a price.
Most charge anywhere from 15%-35% depending on your location, number of rooms, price of rooms, and competition in your area. If you want to be ranked higher among properties in your location, expect to pay an even premium.
However, any booking that comes direct to you has none of that cost. The problem for many hotel owners is the number 1 choice above is all they have ever used. Some do not even have a website let alone listed anywhere of importance except maybe Yellow Pages. So is that potential new customer looking for a holiday going to have a local Yellow Pages laying around?
No, they are going to search Google and browse through pages searching for something that catches their eye. So if a hotel owner has no website visible in search, little social media and not listed near the top on important directories like Google, Bing and Exclusive Travel, they are never able to avoid losing 15%-35% commission on every single booking.
Now just suppose that person in Europe or anywhere else in the world came across your hotel featured in our site and booked with you direct. Say for £500 and assuming normal commission at only 20%, that's £100 extra profit
Now just imagine having several such direct bookings a year, your extra profit would be considerably more.
However, some of our clients do not want the hassle of handling direct bookings, preferring to stay only on an agents site like Booking.com. Those listings in the Exclusive Travel Directory are linked directly to your hotel listing on the agents site. Ensuring the potential booking goes to YOUR hotel and NOT the default landing page for all hotels in the area on the booking agents site, thereby eliminating confusion for the potential client by showing YOUR main business only.
