SEO for hotels that wins more direct bookings
Room, location and experience pages for hotels, inns and resorts that want more guests booking direct.
Hotel SEO built to bring bookings to your own site
Travelers search before they book, and many end up on a booking platform that takes a commission. SEO for hotels aims to bring them to your own website, where you keep the booking and the guest relationship. It does that by helping your property appear for the searches people make about where to stay.
We build hotel SEO around your rooms, your location and what makes a stay with you different. We work remotely with independent hotels, inns and resorts across the United States.
How travelers search for a place to stay
Travel searches begin with a place and an occasion. A hotel that covers the searches around its destination reaches guests long before they compare rooms.
Destination searches
Hotels in a city or town, where to stay near a landmark, and lodging close to an airport, convention center or beach.
Occasion searches
Romantic getaways, family-friendly hotels, pet-friendly hotels, wedding guest accommodation and business travel.
Property and room searches
Suites, rooms with a view, accessible rooms and hotels with a pool, a spa or a restaurant.
Brand and comparison searches
Guests who know your name and check your site, reviews and prices before deciding.

Seasons and events
Demand moves with seasons, holidays and local events. Content is planned ahead of each peak.
Image-heavy pages
Hotel sites rely on photos, which can slow pages. We make sure images are fast and described properly.

Many guests choose the destination before the hotel, so local and area content matters.
