Having listed on OwnerHolidays and not received any enquiries does not bother me. Really keen to see more listings added in the UK in order for some momentum to materialise. Even if charging might be a bit much given the lack of exposure to clients, perhaps more exposure to social media and asking e...

thanks for the tip of CoolStays. I have never come across them but the site is attractive. I am not a fan of email marketing but they appear elsewhere too so could be an option.

my site is not live yet, so can't comment much other than it looks good.
I don't need to update calendar as it pulls it form my own online calender (iCal). SO only need to check periodically to update text or photos..

lets hope things take off for them. I did see elsewhere on this site that it is a slow start. bit of chicken and egg situation - guess they need income to allow to market (if they have expertise.) Anyway the price would be ok even if I only get a few bookings. (compared to the big players.) Currentl...

Dear Felicity, no I have none. However if an admin would prefer to edit (and indicate they have) they are free to do so. I am trying to find as many alternatives as I can and the one mentioned is the first I found that may have potential. As the GBP 40 was not a big investment (for 2 years), I thoug...

love to hear of some other options which charge a flat fee.
(cost should reflect their exposure)

If anyone has any ideas, please post below.

Thank you!

theholidaylet.com 40 for 2yrs.

I have been looking (as a lot of people are) for an alternative to the arrogant gougers HA and TA. Although I do not expect much in the way of enquiries, I think gbp 40 with second year free is worth a punt. If enough people support them, this may translate to greater marketing efforts and thus even...
