Hosthub’s New Partnership with Revyoos

Reviews play a crucial role in future booking opportunities for both hosts and guests. If you are someone who manages different tenants using relevant software or an owner who uses a channel manager like Hosthub, you always need to make sure that all of your properties are consistently getting positive reviews, not only on the OTAs, like Airbnb and Booking .com but also on your own direct booking website.

Here’s why:

Higher ranking
The more positive reviews you receive, the higher your property’s SEO ranking score is going to be, which eventually leads to more bookings.
Customer trust
75% of guests check reviews before booking a rental, and 9 out of those 10 seem to consider it as important as a personal recommendation. Reviews reaffirm your good name and status as a reliable rental host. The more (positive) the reviews the more trustworthy you become.

It is, therefore essential that a collection of real guest reviews be maintained on your own website, which would constitute not only the backbone of your web presence but also a means to create a database of loyal returning guests. As more travellers than ever are taking the time to search and read reviews of various accommodations before booking, vacation rental owners can not afford to miss out.

Thus, we are very happy and proud to announce our partnership with Revyoos, the only all-in-one review aggregator for short-term rentals. Vacation rental owners and managers with direct booking websites can now regain control of their reviews!

Here’s what this means for you and how you can take advantage of it:
