Create website for vacation home rental
There are many different ways to advertise and offer a vacation rental. For example AirBnB, advertising in local directories and much more. With a customized website, you have full control and can also use multiple platforms to promote your vacation home. First, let's take a look at how you can get started!
Owning a vacation home is a valuable asset, and having your own website can earn you more in natural search results from prospects on Google. And it can bring you customers for your vacation home in a variety of ways. A website can also be created for a campground, boat rental, RV rental, or anything else that comes along. The way people go on vacation can be constantly evolving. In recent years, for example, the concept of VanLife has become popular, and many people would like to taste this freedom once. What better way than to place an ad in a central location where you can also attract visitors organically, instead of having to pay for it every time. Take a hosting package from MijnHostingPartner.nl to host your own website and domain name for a low annual fee.
Register a domain name for renting out your vacation rental, house, RV or boat.
It all starts with your own domain name for renting out your vacation home. Depending on your main target audience, you can choose a .nl domain name. Or a domain name extension that works best for you. Are you in doubt about this? Please contact us so we can find your perfect domain name together. A domain name should be kept short and professional. Also, the use of numbers and strange characters is usually not recommended as it can cause confusion. Of course, if you already have a name for the house, this is easier, just check if your name is still available in the domain name configurator.
Some tips you can use to find a domain name for your vacation home are unique points. Nowadays, it is not so important to provide a keyword like vakantiewoningapeldoorn.nl or something similar. With the right SEO work, a website can also be very well known in the search engines. You can also vote for veluwezicht.nl, bosrijk, weilandzicht and so on. Try to adopt the terms that are important to you and check if they are still available. However, it is often advisable to register a domain name if it is still available. It may be gone the very next day.
Start creating the website for your vacation home
A website can be created in many different ways at MijnHostingPartner.nl. Thanks to our Windows hosting, we support a large number of applications that make it easy for you to create a website yourself. This works for many people by using a content management system that allows you to design your website in a visual way. No programming skills are required to set up and maintain your website. One of the most popular options is to use WordPress, mainly because of the thousands of free themes and plug-ins that are available. This allows you to customize and design your website exactly to your needs.
WordPress is very easy to install by simply pressing a button on our client panel. Everything else runs automatically in the background. We have also created a detailed manual in video and photo form that is easy for anyone to follow.
WordPress itself can be extended with a theme that allows you to change the layout of your site with just a click of a button. Of course, you can also just add your texts and images visually. So you can just work the way you do with Microsoft Word, for example. This way, you can easily set up your website without having to have a lot of technical knowledge.
Tools you can use for the booking system
Besides a theme that you can install, you can also use various tools to make your vacation rental website look the way you want it to. These include plugins that you can install to set up a booking system on your vacation rental website, or a payment option that allows vacationers to pay easily and securely through IDEAL. This way you can easily customize your vacation website.
And all this without having to do any programming.
Information and technical aspects that your website should contain.
The only tips and things you should consider for your website are of course the current information, and once you collect personal data with it, a privacy policy, cookie policy and SSL certificate. When processing personal data, there are a number of things you need to be aware of. We have several tools to help you set this up, but you'll also need to do some research on your own.
Also, a website is only as secure as if you keep updating it. So plan to check the site weekly for updates and adjust the write permissions so they are safe to use. We have also developed several articles and tools to make your job as easy as possible.
You can also achieve a fast website by choosing an SSD hosting package and optimizing the website itself. Things like not uploading an image in its original size can make a big difference in loading time. By default, a website built with an up-to-date WordPress theme is already mobile-ready without the need for additional settings. With a website, you do not use a separate mobile version, but the theme adapts to the screen.
