| Why register your domain (villa) name? |
|
The internet has brought many unique benefits to marketing villa rentals including low costs in distributing information and media to a global audience. The interactive nature of internet marketing, both in terms of instant response and in eliciting response are unique qualities of the medium.
One of the keys to a successful business is to plan ahead, however, it can be easy to overlook some of the smaller points such as securing our on-line real estate. Registering your villa name (domain name) is not something that traditionally has a high priority when you're planning the future of your business. The many villa owners that I have contacted who do not have their own domain name and/or website to showcase their villa is testament to this. Registering your own domain name is the first step towards successful internet presence. Having your own domain name has two primary benefits. 1) It will become the address for your own website i.e. http://www.yourvillaname.co.uk This will enable your site to be found much more easily. Your own domain name projects the right image for a company which is serious about their internet presence.We can register ANY name that you want, assuming it is not already in use.For example let's say you own Tamarind Tree Villa in St Lucia and you currently advertise with various holiday rentals sires. Prospective clients will contact you through the letting site by sending an email to an anonymous email address (i.e. your email address is not readily available to the prospective client to view (in order to prevent unsolicited mail). You respond to the enquiry and the prospective client receives an email from your current internet access provider e.g. This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . An obvious confusion would arise from receiving and email from This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it referring to a Villa in St Lucia. By using your own email address such as This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it would provide validation and assurance to the prospective client that they are dealing with the real McCoy and that you are serious about your internet presence and the service that you provide to customers. Of similar importance is that you do not own This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it and if you change internet service providers you may lose it. This has obvious implications for letterheads, brochures, advertising and stationary and especially for people who may have contacted you previously and wish to rebook. Take the first step and register your villa name NOW.Contact us directly providing your villa's name and we will respond by return advising you whether your domain name is still available to purchase together with advising you of the next steps you need to take to ensure an effective internet presence.Click here to contact us. |
