Managed Websites

Yes. We always start by looking in detail at what you already have.

If your current website has good foundations, we'll look at the most sensible way to improve it. If we believe a rebuild would provide better long-term value, we'll explain why and talk you through the options.

Our goal isn't to rebuild websites for the sake of it. It's to put you in the strongest position to grow direct bookings and maintain that position over time.

Yes.

If you already own your domain and have access to it, we'll absolutely use it. Your domain is one of your most valuable digital assets and forms an important part of your direct-booking channel.

We'll handle the technical work required to connect it to the website and ensure transition is smooth.

Yes.

We'll integrate your existing booking system into the website so you can continue using the tools and processes you're already familiar with.

The Managed Direct Booking Website is designed to work for both individual holiday lets and small portfolios.

A single property starts at £250/month. Additional properties on the same website are charged at £85/month each.

We'll discuss the best structure during the discovery call. In some cases, multiple properties work well on a single website. In others, separate websites may be more appropriate depending on location, branding and how the properties are marketed.

An additional property is another holiday let promoted on the same website.

For example, five cottages on the same estate would typically be one website with four additional properties.

However, if properties are marketed separately, have different branding, or serve different locations, separate websites may be a better approach.

We'll discuss the most appropriate structure during the discovery call and explain any pricing before work begins.

We're always happy to hear from clients between reviews. Questions come up, opportunities arise, and sometimes things simply need a second opinion.

The quarterly review isn't when we start paying attention. We're already monitoring the website and looking after the day-to-day details. Instead, it's a chance to deliberately step back and think.

Together, we'll review what's changed, revisit priorities and make sure we're still working towards the same goals. It's an opportunity to assess progress, discuss new ideas and identify opportunities to improve visibility and grow direct bookings.

Just as importantly, the review keeps the direct-booking channel front of mind. While you're focused on guests, maintenance and running the business, the review creates space to consider how your website and online presence are supporting those wider goals.

That's absolutely fine.

You'll have access to update your own content, and many clients choose to make simple changes themselves. If you'd rather not, just get in touch and we'll be happy to help.

The managed service includes time for the small improvements, adjustments and housekeeping that naturally arise as a website evolves. If something larger is required, we'll discuss it with you and agree the best way forward.

Not in the traditional sense.

The Managed Direct Booking Website focuses on your website and direct-booking channel rather than day-to-day social media management.

However, we're exploring ways to make it easier to publish content once and syndicate it across your website and social platforms. Our preference is always to create content on assets you own first, then distribute it elsewhere where it makes sense.

Not usually.

At the outset, we'll identify content opportunities that could strengthen the website's visibility and authority. That might include local guides, attraction pages, seasonal content or answers to common visitor questions.

We'll help develop a content plan, identify priorities and provide guidance on what would be useful to create. We can also review and lightly edit content where needed.

However, we believe the best content comes from the people who know the property and the area. We can help you decide what to write, but we can't be authentically you.

The goal isn't to publish content. It's to publish useful content that reflects the character of the property, the area and the people behind it.

The 12-month minimum gives us time to establish strong foundations and begin making meaningful improvements.

After that, the agreement simply continues on a rolling basis. You're free to continue with the managed service for as long as it remains valuable to you.

If circumstances change, we'll discuss the available options and help you find the arrangement that makes the most sense for your business.

That's not a problem.

We'll work with whatever information is available and can help put the right measurement in place if needed.

Google Analytics and Search Console can provide useful insights into how people find and use your website, but they're not a requirement to get started.

Many businesses come to us with little or no tracking in place. Establishing a sensible baseline is often one of the first steps in understanding what's working and where improvements can be made.
