    Expedia vs Booking.com

    Howdy guys! I have been using Booking.com for years now, and it's been a good relationship...hardly any kinks. I use a service called "myallocator," to sync my Reservation Key database with Booking.com. This service also synchronizes with a bunch of different channels, one of which includes...

    Live Chat on website!

    Have anyone tried to use livechat on their website? I figure it might help with conversions if I can speak to a few clients online, and track their presense. I have been looking at a service called "BoldChat" They have an iPhone application, so talking to potential clients anywhere will be a...
