Because these challenging times call for increased marketing efforts, we would like to make you a special offer:

Upgrade your membership, and we'll give you a 100 PERCENT RISK-FREE GUARANTEE on the additional cost. If you are not completely satisfied, let us know within 90 days of your enrollment and we'll refund your upgraded amount.

To check the costs, just log in with your property ID and password. Click here if you don't remember your password. From your home base, click "Account Information," then "Renew/Upgrade" online. You'll see the exact costs for upgrading the remaining months of your membership, as well as the renewal rates.

Why upgrade? Four key reasons:

  1. Higher placement: Will inngoers scroll down (and down) to find you? The additional $100-200 invested in becoming a Gold or Platinum member will increase traffic to both your own home page as well as your listing on BedandBreakfast.com.
  2. Website & email links: Links from our city page and property listing to your home page and email are key sources of new business.
  3. Specials: Post value-added packages and last-minute promotions to attract attention to your property. The Special Deals page is one of the most popular on the BedandBreakfast.com site.
  4. More photos: Combine quality and quantity for maximum results - five photos for silver level members; ten for gold and platinum. Great pictures produce reservations.

Remember that your listing on BedandBreakfast.com is only a portion of the value of your membership. Take full advantage of our Featured Properties program, online booking option, recipes page, gift certificates, and many other features to help promote your property most effectively. Make sure you're displaying the maximum allowable number of first-rate photos, and have included links to your email and URL.
