Help needed to promote B&B in Paris

[cecile]

Hello !

I am new on this forum and this is my first topic.
I am starting a B&B rental business in Paris, city where it is not much developped.
I am starting with 4 very nice ones. I am focusing on very special places, secret places to stay will the exact words. The ones I already fit with these words (B&B in a house in Montmartre with garden and swimming pool, another one the historical district of Paris (5) in a 18 century building overlooking a garden etc...
If anybody could help me to target guests who are willing to stay in such places, I would be much grateful. In exchange, I would be happy to help with french marchet in SEO or anything else.
I hope that I am not too demanding but any advice will be welcome. My website should be on line in June.
Thanks in advance
Cecile

It sounds like a good idea. I'm sure there is a big market for places like this. The only advice I can offer for the moment is to imagine who your potential customers are, and which words would they search the internet for. Then do the searches yourself to see what comes up.

I would imaging things such as "B+B Paris" "Accommodation Paris" "Guest House Paris" would be a good start.

Good luck

Bienvenue Cecile,

I wish you the best of luck with your new business. I am sure you will find a great deal of good advice on this excellent forum from those who run B&Bs.

I am planning to move to France this year as soon as my house is sold.

Cecile,
Do you have a web site or use a rental listing site? This year I seem to have had a few people (mainly American and Canadian) who are flying into Paris and staying there for a few days before coming down to Nice. I also have friends coming over from Australia next year who are touring Europe.

Please PM me with details etc.
