Hi Nemo - I don't doubt you one bit... so that's where it stands. Apparently, absent mutual effort, neither side can succeed. On another thought, though: possibly many of those people who let things go had once been quite dedicated to updating everything... just ultimately reached the point where th...

Of course, not updating calendars (at the very least), is not a good thing for either the “hopeful beneficiary of a free site” or the “hopefully rising site.” I thought we are among adults here, who for one reason or other “rely” on making their “private vacation rental” work, so we need not discuss...

Hi - All I can tell you is, that I only even learned about the existence of multiple free sites from this forum. Only Ferienhausmiete.de and IHA.com have brought me anything. I have since paid for Ferienhausmiete, only 60 Euros, but may not again, as they refuse to accept my website at iowners.net. ...

As my Flipkey listing still comes up on a Google search, I now feel obliged to keep the calendar up to date too. I checked a keyword from Analytics which is how I found it. Thank you, Helen - for letting me and everyone know!! I personally stopped asking my guests to go through the trouble of posti...

I would never list with a site that blocked my access to an enquiry or flagged me with 'doesn't reply' status. Verify me all you want, if that's your business model, but do it in advance. When an enquiry arrives, I want it immediately because, most likely, the enquirer will have contacted other pro...

Hi Pepsipuss, I hope you have been well. I recall that we communicated privately about Niumba. You had had a hard time getting your address verified. Well, so had I. You know, these people seem to be wandering in times that are not current any longer. I am certainly not trying to be a wise guy, ... ...

I frankly do not want to bother any longer. Be it as it may. For example, my free trial with Flipkey/TripAdvisor expires on August 28th. Notwithstanding some really good reviews, and a hit count of over 600 over the past nearly 5 months, I had only received 6 inquiries, none of which could work. One...

I had learned about HomeAway's 1 Euro offer on this forum, just as I had learned that Niumba existed from this very forum. Concerning Niumba: I had gone through the effort of verifying my address, which had not been easy. I had done so more than a year ago. My record with Niumba: probably more than ...
