Give your brand a platform—without giving OTAs your revenue.

Hostfully’s Direct Booking Site lets you capture more revenue by cutting out OTA commissions and taking full control of your brand. You can upsell add-on services, offer promo codes, and create repeat guest incentives—all while building guest trust and loyalty. Plus, your site is fully optimized for both desktop and mobile, and included free with every Hostfully account.

To take full advantage of your vacation rental booking site, we recommend a few best practices:

• Optimize the site for search engines: think like your guests and incorporate keywords you think they will search for, so when they do, your website will be recommended by the search engine algorithm (example: book vacation home online).
• Customize it with your branding: once travelers start to recognize your logo and colors, they’ll be more likely to see you as a reliable vendor.
• Optimize it with whitelabeling like custom domains, Google analytics tracking, and custom HTML.
• Create coupons: these are a great way to speed up a guests booking choice and help them choose you over the competition.
• Feature listings: Added a new listing to your portfolio? Have one that isn’t getting as much attention? Consider featuring them so travelers will notice them when they visit your website.
• Promote it: encourage people to check out your site. Post it on social media. Or if you have time, create an informative blog and link it to your website to boost traffic.
