Everything to do with using your own website to advertise your rental property. Design, usability, hosting, getting listed on the search engines, optimising your site, pay-per-click, etc, etc.

Did they send a follow up asking for a discount?

Whenever I get comments like that it's normally because someone wants to book 2 nights midweek, bring an extra 2 very small people or a third well behaved dog :lol:

No. Hovered around a couple of possible fortnights, wondered about pool security but booked last night for the full whack.

Unlike the bloke who rang on Monday night wanting all three gites for a week but 'with full and uninterrupted 24-hour internet access because he and his friends were keen gamers'. Oh, and a discount for high season a year ahead. When I told him that you couldn't put the words 'EDL'' uninterrupted' and rural France' in the same sentence, he decided to go elsewhere. Which, I suspect, was a lucky escape.

I'll bet you were tempted to suggest that 'Gite holiday' and 'all day gaming' should not be in the same sentence :roll:
