Your vacation rental - How to be successful - Introduction
A guide for Vacation Rental By Owner Advertising
There are two ways to go about advertising your vacation rental cabin, cottage, or house online. You can take the obvious route and sign up online for one or more of the hundreds of vacation rental websites. This may be the easiest way to go, although each site can cost from $60.00 a year to $60.00 a month. Paying out $60.00 a month can leave you with far less money in your pocket, which is important especially if you are on a tight budget.
The other way you can advertise your vacation rental is by setting up your own website. We think this can be a very efficient way to promote a new vacation cabin. Our ‘by owner promotion guide’ will discuss the best and the worst ways to go about setting up a successful owner-run vacation rental website. We will go over everything from how to decide what to call your website, to organizing your content, and how to go about promoting your vacation rental website once it is up and running.
Planning your own website is hard enough for most people without the added stresses of making sure your property is successful as a vacation rental. That is why this guide will be split into three sections:
1. Getting Started - Organizing ideas, your vacation home, and making a plan.
2. Building a Foundation - Creating a well thought out vacation rental by owner website.
3. Promote! Promote! Promote! - Getting your website out there.
