Classement for gites

Because of the tax implications I have been looking into having our gites rated to benefit from the 71% tax allowance. As far as I can see it costs 160€ for the visit and the rating lasts five years. no annual charges for this just a one off payment?
Any advice who has done this appreciated

I just wanted to add thanks for showing me what a difference you can make with better photos. Mine need a re-vamp but we are re-decorating and laying new flooring so you have given me some good ideas for taking the new photos when the work is done.
I am very impressed.

top of the list at the moment are fario and arc-en-ciel as those are the variety of trout we have in the lake.
not 100% convinced though that these are the ones!! Not very inventive with names as call the two ducks who visit our lake m et mme quacky duck!!!
