We understand, you already get advertised on Airbnb.com, VRBO or something similar, so why does your rental property need its own website? Surf on down the page to find the 5 top reasons for managing your own rental property website, and see how easy it can be working with Sidejam to make it happen.
To succeed in this business, you need the word on the street. There’s no good reason to stop at 1 or 2 channels, you need as many as you can effectively manage—and a website gives your property its own digital brand identity, so it doesn’t just provide an extra channel, it provides a unique channel that isn’t cluttered with a ton of other options to distract your potential renter.
We all know the deal: those booking sites are fantastic, until you start looking at the fees they’re raking in on every rental. In this budget-challenged era we’re living in, making your rental property rates more appealing by removing fees makes the bottom line look much better to your potential rental guests...and to you! That’s definitely a win-win.
Yes, sites like Airbnb are great for attracting new guests to your rental. But what about repeat customers? If the word has spread and you’ve been crushing it for some time now, chances are a growing portion of your business is from guests who have rented from you before. Imagine how happy they’ll be with a more direct route to the property they’ve grown to love, that allows them to skip the fees that those other sites tack on! And even if your business isn’t repeat, your more tech-savvy guests will look around to try to find a route that takes them around the booking sites so they can save on fees.
It’s a tough market. Consumer skepticism is at an all-time high, and there are so many options for them to consider. Maintaining your own website will not only make your property stand out, it will make your brand look more established and trustworthy at the same time. And not for nothing, but when you’re listed through a site like VRBO or Airbnb, your potential rental guests aren’t just looking at your property, they’re looking at a myriad of competitors who are vying for their attention and revenue. Cut through the clutter, reduce your competition and stand out with your own website!
Let’s face it—your property rocks. It’s your baby. You’ve invested so much in this place, now it’s time to showcase it. You need to look as appealing as possible to your new and repeat guests, keep your digital brand (and marketing efforts) at the top of their game, beat out your competition, and make renting your property as easy as possible for your guests. And it’s challenging to do all that on your own—so when you find yourself in uncharted territory, it’s helpful to know that someone has your back. In short, you need a partner.
