15 Quick Fix Tips For Getting More Bookings on Your Orlando Vacation Home

Original Content From www.ThePinkFlamingo.info

We all like quick fixes right? Well here are 15 quick and easy changes you can make to your Orlando vacation rental and booking routine to increase your exposure and revenue this winter.

1. Update Your photos!
There is nothing worse than outdated, bad angled pictures lurking around on your property website. People will be booking your home solely based on the photos they see online. You only get one chance at this so make it count. The Flamingo thing to do would be to dip into your wallet a little and hire a professional Orlando real estate photographer to come in and snap some shots. It’s an investment that will pay off in the end.

Expose2. Expose Yourself!
Don’t be afraid to put your home out there. There are over 50 websites you can list your Orlando vacation rental home on to get some owner booking revenue coming in. Consider the top three and take an ad out on those sites. Again if your pictures are terrible than don’t waste the money but if the package looks good than by all means get it out there! One of my personal favorite sites for this is VRBO

3. Start a Blog
Yes, I just told you to become a “blogger”. This is by far the fastest and most cost effective way to start generating some exposure online. It’s free to start a WordPress blog and if you do it correctly can generate a ton of new business and stir up interest in your Orlando vacation rental. A great thing to do would be to blog about up and coming events in the Orlando area, any news or information about your vacation home neighborhood, any specials you are running and have a place where guests can leave comments and testimonials. You can also link this to your property website.

4. Testimonials
Nothing speaks louder to a potential prospect than the voice of another satisfied guest. If you are not utilizing testimonials on your website/blog than you are missing out on a large market of people. Encourage your previous guests (the satisfied ones) to go onto your website/blog and leave you a testimonial on the testimonials page (which you should have in place already). In all of your online advertising link back to this page so people can read them.

5. Love Your Competitionhug
Who says you have to compete with the competition? There is more than enough business to go around for everyone and there is also power in high numbers. Get with other owners of properties in your neighborhood and link your websites up. What’s great is that they may have guests that are looking for specific dates that they already have booked but guess what, their “buddy” up the street has availability. Many Orlando vacation home owners have even started neighborhood websites where all owners within the community advertise their home and they market the site together.
