Lay My Hat

Hey, sorry guys i thought you would be able to see the conversation unfold from the link provided.

For anyone interested in the title of this thread, there is some interesting reading on a site which i have been following. Quite an intense conversation and real concerns on the dominance of Home Away. http://www.linkedin.com/groupAnswers?trk=view_disc&gid=69889&ut=2PR-Inl1vh7BA1&commen...

Is it worth continuing with it if you are always concerned if it will be ther next year, the year after.
Why would you?

Thats how its going to benefit SamV, if more and more people advise them of 'dodgy' guests then more & more have the opportunity to not accept the booking in the first place. However if people think i will wait until their data base is quite substantial (which maybe it is, i don't know) before j...

Yes you really do need to be careful, shop around, don't assume that just because you have mentioned what you want from cover that it will be covered if anything goes wrong. IT WON'T, read your documents when they come through, check its what your really want, if not you still have chance to cancel ...

Hi Yorkshire Lass

One thing that i would make sure was included in your insurance (although i am sure you will have it in place by now) is public liability insurance.
The last thing you need is someone knocking on your own door wanting compensation for anything.

Oh dear a lot of people unhappy with the French it would seem. I cannot say that i have had considerable first hand experience with the French but i do know several English people that adore the French and their way of life, so much so that 2 families i know have taken up permanant residence there s...

Hi Essar, Or anybody else? Its been quite a while since any last post, how have you progressed with Guestscan, have you come accross any undesireables during your requests or are you no longer with them? Just interested thats all.I have heard good things and that their database is growing considerab...

Just browsing my past posts and came accross this one that seemed to totally dry up after my last post.

Out of interest did anyone have a look at the Travel website SEO? if so what were your thoughts, worth taking a few minutes out? i thought so.

Looks like i need to eat a little humble pie here. Ok ok ok, i take it back, everyone has helped them no end and it is clear that the advice that has been given has been invaluable :) My coment had been based on one or two other subjects that i had seen on occasion. I shall think twice before dishin...

Dont dispair, you must feel like your missing out with everyone else seeming to be content with the short term bookings and not the full week. However all seem to be giving sound advise and there is still ample time to get bookings for the 2/3 days theres always people hanging back and booking late ...

wow great advice casasantoestevo I think sazzleevans would have been struggling a considerably without your help. Little tips here & there make a world of difference, one problem on the forum is that people are all too often willing to criticise for the sake of it without been helpful. You have ...

Hi Lisac x2 :lol: I have been following the Andy Parr on Linkedin on the Travel website SEO. I find him very clued up and informative as are the discussions on the varied relevant subjects that are discussed, very helpful i find. For anyone wanting advise or direction on such subjects i would sugges...

Hi Apexblue

It does look a decent site but there are cheaper out there that do offer more for less financial outlay.
They don't have an availability calendar showing for the properties which i feel alays helps and encourages bookings.

I must admit i am not one for Facebooking however maybe i would be if i was convinced it would work for bookings.
I thought Facebook was for people you know, friends, aquantences etc. Don't these people already know you have a property to rent out or am i still in the 20th century?
