We do a rolling update of our availability ie as each day passes it goes on for the next year ie 10th of Jan today so 10th of Jan 2015 will now be available to book
Was at a dinner of B&B owners 2 nights ago - sat with very nice couple who have a stunning B&B she was working but is now giving it up to help at the B&B full time, she told me he was so busy on his own he was only opening online booking a month in advance - this way makes a lot more work for you as the owner as it means you miss all the best long bookings as they have already booked elsewhere that was showing.
Then yesterday morning another neighbour rang to ask me my opinion on mimumum nights for a certain event for which I am already full in July - he is just thinking about putting his jan.feb march availability online - I got all 4 night bookings for this event as at that time there was only 5 B&B's showing with availability (ie 6 months ago) so simply by having it on I was ahead of the pack - don't make this be your B&B missing out!!!!
