Cheers Kev, Extremely helpful tips. I was hoping to use the design package for other websites once I learn how to use it properly, then it'll hopefully make more sense financially. Availability page is rather odd, you're right. I tried to keep the same rectangle element at the top, but probably ther...

Our new responsive website needs your help

This is my first attempt at designing a responsive website for our property. I'd really appreciate your comments and tips before getting it on the official URL. There are a few issues I'm aware of but haven't quite figured how to amend, but I'm sure there are other things I haven't considered. Somet...

Does anyone else have the same problem as I do trying to update rates? Hi Pepsipuss, try sending them a message on Facebook. I had the same issue and it was resolved - it was an IT problem on their side. Unfortunately it's not the only thing that's wrong with the system. To make things worse, now I...

Do you know how to cancel the 'auto renewal' for a business listing? They haven't brought me any business. They make it so difficult to cancel, Tripadvisor act just like any fraudulent listing. They tell you you can cancel but never tell you how.

I'm having problems changing my rates. I asked flipkey's support about it and all I got was a list of links that I had already read. If they value my business, they have to try a little bit harder. It's insulting to be told they don't have time to answer my query! I am seriously considering loosing ...

I tried looking up the email addresses of the enquirers but had no luck - Must admit that one of the enquiries was from someone that had enquired the day before through my website meaning, I presume, that they were real people - unless it's a cunning plan! I will really have to look at whether any o...

Why is it that in the last few days before my Owners Direct renewal is due, there's a real obvious surge of enquiries, none of which even respond once I send them availability? Dodgy or what? It's put me off renewing.

I certainly won't be considering advertising my property with OwnersDirect again. The last enquiry from them was 2 and a half month ago, back in October. Very disappointing.

Thank you guys.

Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Marketing Cloud are two distinct services. The first provides applications like Photoshop and Illustrator online. The second is the one that's perplexing. I'm not quite sure whether they are still building it up and it's not yet available.

Adobe Marketing Cloud

This service by Adobe, the makers of Dreamweaver, Photoshop etc, promises to help companies with analytics, social, advertising, targeting and web experience management solutions. Sounds fascinating and possibly helpful to people like us who rent out properties. Yet I was simply lost on their websit...

It's as you say Helen B - it's still on FlipKey at http://www.flipkey.com/valletta-vacation-rentals/p325434/ but not on any search of the area. Unfortunately I've not got any requests through it as far as I know. Felicity A, I wouldn't be surprised there was something of that sort in the initial con...
