Description

We know it’s beneficial to have a direct booking website for our short-term rental (STR) business. But having a webpage doesn’t do us much good if no one visits. So, how do you drive traffic to your site and make it easy for guests to book?

Erinç Arık is the Cofounder and CEO of Your Porter, the premiere mobile-first property management software for professional STR hosts. The platform’s top features include message automation, team management and an Airbnb ranking booster, and the app even allows hosts to create their own SEO-optimized direct booking website in a matter of minutes.

On this episode of Get Paid for Your Pad, Erinç joins me to discuss why it’s important to have a direct booking website, explaining why it gives you a better chance at capturing longer bookings and how Your Porter can help you build one today. He introduces us to the platform’s online payment processor, describing how it benefits both you and your guests. Listen in to understand what Your Porter is doing to keep your STR business safe and get Erinç’s best strategies for driving traffic to your direct booking site!
