Just came across an inn with some photos I wanted to discuss with you. Have you ever sold a house via a realtor? If so, then you were told to strip it of all the "personal" stuff as people don't want to feel like they are in YOUR home, but buying THEIR house.
How does this thought transfer over to B&B photos? (website, blog, Facebook, directories, all avenues of marketing)
We know when we take a room photo, for instance, that even the smallest thing can distract and ruin the image. Ie a kleenex box too close to a lamp, or one side of a swag drapery lower than the other side. Sure we have drapery, kleenex and such and they are certainly uneven or cramped at times, but for the photo it needs to be clutter-free.
Have you considered retaking your room photos or adding more?
Or using a blog for some added oomph to the limited space on your website?
Have you tested taking most of the text out and making it mostly images and seeing what happens? Or putting the majority on text on a different page and allowing the images to do the speaking?
