Taking back control of direct bookings

Brand identity and a multilingual site with booking engine for a guesthouse group.

Sample
+64%
Direct bookings
1,4s
Load time
-31%
OTA commissions

The challenge

The group depended on OTAs for over 80% of bookings and their commissions. The existing site was not mobile-ready and offered no way to book directly.

Our approach

  1. 1

    Created a shared brand identity across the four properties, with extensible guidelines.

  2. 2

    Trilingual French, English and Arabic site with an integrated booking engine and online payment.

  3. 3

    SEO targeting stay-related queries by city and by experience type.

  4. 4

    Direct-booking-only benefits made prominent to justify booking on the site.

The result

Direct bookings grew 64% in six months, cutting the share of revenue paid out in OTA commission by 31%.

Every direct booking is margin we no longer hand over in commission.
