The problem

3 reasons bookings go to the OTAs

1

Commission you never see

Fifteen to eighteen percent comes off every booking before it reaches you. Spread over dozens of bookings you never see it as one figure, so it never makes the budget.

2

Your site sends guests to Booking

A Book button that leads to Booking.com, a booking engine hidden away or a Google link pointing at an OTA: the guest came to you and books elsewhere.

3

No reason to book direct

If your site does not say why booking direct is worth it, a better rate, free cancellation, a perk, the guest goes where they already know.

How it works

Three simple steps

Step 1

What You Pay

Nights, average rate and channels: you see in euros what goes to commission every month. What you do not know we estimate for a property your size.

Step 2

We Check Every Morning

Your website and your Google profile, as a guest sees them, for anything that sends bookings to the OTAs.

Step 3

Fix What Matters

The fixes with the biggest payoff for the least work come first, with instructions for each.

Checks

What to Fix First

Seven checks on what decides where the guest books. Every result says what we found, why it costs you bookings and how to fix it, ranked by payoff against effort.

Booking engine and Google

Whether your site has a booking engine that works, and whether the Website button on Google leads to you or to an OTA

Reasons to book direct

A better rate, free cancellation, a perk: whether your site says so where the guest sees it

Speed and markup

Mobile speed from Google PageSpeed and Hotel markup for search engines
