Guest Houses Directory Information

Did you know that the top five people in a list are likely to receive an enquiry level that is twenty times greater than the next 5?

A prestige listing appears above the select listings, which means that if you have a Prestige listing you are guaranteed to be in the top listings for your county, town or London district.

Prestige Listings appear in random order, changing position with each visitor and refresh, so that means equal positioning opportunities for you no matter what letter of the alphabet your name begins with! This means that your advertisement will often appear as the first listing seen by visitors to your town or county pages.

Plus! - This listing now includes our Stats service, which means you can see how many people visit your web site from the link in your A1TouristGuide entry

Your Prestige listing appears within a gold bordered individual box, and your business name is in larger type than in the free listings, to attract attention to your entry. It also includes a thumbnail picture, a free map link to goglemaps which shows your approximate location (based on your postcode), and an eye-catching multi-coloured link to your web site.

If you have a rating with the ETC, STB or WTB this will appear in your listing.

At the bottom of your Listing you can add an additional message (up to 55 characters, including spaces).

• 1 Year Prestige Listing: You pay only £58.00
  
• 3 Year Prestige Listing: You pay only £90.00
  (equivalent to £30 per year - Save £84.00!!)

If you own a Bed and Breakfast facility in the UK, then you qualify for a free standard listing on this site. This will only show your business name, address and telephone number in the list for your region and in the list for your town. If you have an email address or web site, you should purchase a Select or Prestige listing to allow visitors to contact you (see below).

Standard listings appear in alphabetical order

You can check now to see if your free listing is already active. Just select your County/Region from the list below and press the 'Search Now' button.

Select listings appear above the standard free listings in the Region list and the Town list, which means you have a greater chance of receiving an enquiry from the visitor who views the page for your area.

The select listing appears within a silver bordered individual box, and the business name is in larger type than in the free listings, to attract attention to your entry.

It also includes a free map link to googlemaps which shows your approximate location (based on your postcode), and a link to your web site if you have one.

If you have a rating with the ETC, STB or WTB this will appear in your listing.
(note: only diamond (England) or star (Scotland and Wales) ratings will appear. If you have other ratings agencies awards, Gold, Silver, Dragon awards etc., you can display these on your web page, or you can include this information in the text line available on a Prestige Listing

Within each County/Region it is possible for the visitor to search for accommodation in a particular Town. The town selection list box only contains the names of the Towns that have guest houses listed in the database.

If your town name does not appear in the list for your Region/County this is because there are no guest houses listed yet in your town.

When your guest house is listed in our database your Town name will automatically appear in the town selection box for your County/Region.

Why stop at only giving visitors the bare minimum of information about your business?

Quite frankly, we can't think of one good business reason to rely on the free listing to bring you bookings. Especially when you can tell the visitor so much more by upgrading - So many more benefits for a very small outlay.

Would you like site visitors to ........

• Find your details before your competitor's?
• Know what Tourist Board rating you have?
• Be able to contact you immediately from the web site?
• See what your guest house looks like?
• See your location on the map?
• See a list of the facilities you offer?
• Find out how close you are to tourist attractions, theatres, the beach etc.?
• See how competitive your rates are?
• Have enough information to decide to make a booking with you?

If you answered YES to any of these questions, then the free listing is not going to fulfil your needs.

For the professional guest house owner we recommend one of the packages below. You will see that you can get all of the needs identified above for a very small investment.

Make it easy for visitors to find you - get to the top of the list!

Some people say:

"I will take a free listing and if it performs well I will upgrade next year".

Why is this a mistake?

1. A free listing will not produce the same results that a paid listing will, so it is impossible to judge the value of a paid listing by the performance of a free listing.

2. Our extremely low limited period discounted rates will not be repeated, and to get a paid listing later may cost considerably more.

3. People are looking right now for accommodation in your area, and they could be sleeping in your competitor's house tonight.

Stop! Think before you order a free listing. Are you getting what you really need?
