PHOTOS!!!!!
You know this already, we beat this drum on this forum regularly.
And yet some are still not getting it. If you want bookings get those photos sharing the experience they will have when they stay with you, rooms, space, breakfasts, views... Here is another article on this topic:
Get those BIG BOLD BEAUTIFUL PHOTOS on your websites!
Hotel Websites Are Shifting to a Visual-First Experience
 
I know that my pics are not the best, after all, I took them. But I have a good amount of them on my website and I post pictures regularly on my facebook page and on the blog. Although, those pics are mostly of the area and things of interest. Anyway, I get loads of compliments and I feel the more you can show, the more people can't say they didn't know that there wasn't this or that in the cottage, etc. I always ask myself, what have you got to hide if you don't show your rooms/the establisment as a whole?
Anyway, there are way too many Inn's, Motels, Hotels that don't have good visuals

Not sure how many of you know this guy but there is an itinerant B&B photog who travels the country doing B&B photos. Neat guy. He dropped in last week. We passed the time and he gave me some more tips on how to photo rooms. Will test those out next week.

I wonder if it's the same one that showed up here last year. Pops up out of the blue, older guy, has some pictures in a binder. Seems like a nice enough fellow, but pretty odd he just rings the doorbell and wants to take pictures.
