\n \n \n How can I know if groupstravel.com works for me? <\/span>\n\n \n <\/svg> <\/span>\n \n <\/svg> <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/h2>\n\n

Feel free to reach out to other owners who are already enjoying the benefits of groupstravel.com and ask them for their opinions.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n

\n \n \n Can I set up a link to my own website? <\/span>\n\n \n <\/svg> <\/span>\n \n <\/svg> <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/h2>\n\n
\n
\n

Of course! We are one of the few websites that still allows this. We understand how important it is to support your own website. The only rule: All inquiries that come through the backlink must go directly to you.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n

\n

\n \n \n Does Groups AG charge a commission? <\/span>\n\n \n <\/svg> <\/span>\n \n <\/svg> <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/h2>\n\n
\n
\n

Only if you have selected the commission model. The prices vary depending on whether you chose the standard or premium model.<\/p>\n

However, if you prefer the subscription model, there are no additional commissions.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n

\n

\n \n \n Who receives the booking inquiries? <\/span>\n\n \n <\/svg> <\/span>\n \n <\/svg> <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/h2>\n\n
\n
\n

All inquiries that come through our platform go directly to you!<\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n

\n

\n \n \n How do I get started and list my accommodation? <\/span>\n\n \n <\/svg> <\/span>\n \n <\/svg> <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/h2>\n\n
\n
\n

First, you create a login, then you decide whether you want to go with the free commission model or the fixed price model. Finally, you choose the size of the house or houses and list them.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n

\n

\n \n \n What marketing strategies can I use to promote my guesthouse even better? <\/span>\n\n \n <\/svg> <\/span>\n \n <\/svg> <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/h2>\n\n
\n
\n

Every property has individual needs. At groupstravel.com, you have various advertising options available. We would be happy to provide you with personal consultation over the phone or via email.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n

\n

\n \n \n Can I include sofa beds and beds in my sleeping capacity? <\/span>\n\n \n <\/svg> <\/span>\n \n <\/svg> <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/h2>\n\n
\n
\n

All non-permanent beds \u2013 such as sofa beds, futons, daybeds, folding beds, and pull-out beds \u2013 can be included in your property presentation. However, these beds do not count towards the “number of sleeping places” in your title. Just take a look at a property page on groupstravel.com to see how this works!<\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n

\n

\n \n \n How many photos can I include in my property description? <\/span>\n\n \n <\/svg> <\/span>\n \n <\/svg> <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/h2>\n\n
\n
\n

You can add as many photos as you like! However, we recommend limiting it to a maximum of 20 images. This is enough to provide a good impression of your offering without overwhelming customers. The quality of the photos plays a significant role in demand. Feel free to send us your pictures for evaluation!<\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n

\n

\n \n \n What types of accommodations can I list? <\/span>\n\n \n <\/svg> <\/span>\n \n <\/svg> <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/h2>\n\n
\n
\n

You can list any type of vacation accommodation on groupstravel.com, from campsites to luxury villas to castles.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n

\n

\n \n \n Do you use social media for additional advertising? <\/span>\n\n \n <\/svg> <\/span>\n \n <\/svg> <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/h2>\n\n
\n
\n

We promote our accommodations on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, and of course, Google. We are also connected with many tourism regions through Openbooking.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n

\n

\n \n \n Can I integrate my calendar from another website? <\/span>\n\n \n <\/svg> <\/span>\n \n <\/svg> <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/h2>\n\n
