Templates

Top

▼ What is a template?

A template is a website model that our designers have meticulously constructed to meet the majority of individual homeowners’ requests. According to your taste and needs, choose the template you prefer and we will customize it together.

▼ What to choose, a single-page or multi-page template?

The templates have been built to adapt to all types of properties. In most cases, the Mono Page is suitable because it is simple for the user and for the owner. Everything is on the same page. If you want to show more details, photos, a drone video for example, or a blog section, it is recommended to choose a Multi Page.

▼ I prefer the Multi Pages templates. How many pages will I need?

It is of course related to what you want to show your visitors, but also to the number of properties you have to rent. In general, if you only have one property, here is an example of a classic structure:

  • Home page,
  • Photos / videos,
  • Amenities of the property,
  • The services you offer,
  • Things to do or visit in your region, your city,
  • The location of your property, with a large Google map,
  • Page to book your stay, rates, calendar,

This gives a total of 7 pages. As for example on the « Loft-loft » template.

▼ Can I then intervene myself and modify the template?

All our templates have been carefully designed by our team of designers. For each of the templates, they develop style rules that allow you to have an attractive and professional turnkey site. They also use the latest coding techniques to ensure your site is compatible with most browsers and recent mobile devices. To ensure this consistency and thus prevent any unintentional handling errors that could deteriorate the qualitative image that Yourwebsite.rentals wishes to give, the « Owners » accesses are restricted to certain minor modifications, such as the management of calendars.

▼ Can you create a custom website for me?

Of course, this is possible. We frequently receive this kind of request from owners. For example, we have Owners of Residences who have several rental properties to manage, who have wished to entrust us with the realization of their tailor-made site. In the same way, hotels have called on us to design unique and personalized sites according to their personal specifications. You have a project, we invite you to contact us to discuss it together. A quote will of course be provided to you.

domain name

Top

▼ I already have my domain name, can I keep it?

Of course, this is your brand image. If your customers already know you by this domain name, we will make a modification at your provider so that your domain name links to your new site.

▼ I don't have a domain name yet, what should I do?

The first thing to do is to choose the name and then check its availability, because the rule is first come, first served. This means that if this name is already used by someone else you can’t use it. For example, you can go to the search engine at OVH to do your availability search. Your account manager will advise you on this operation.

▼ What extensions do you offer?

As far as possible and depending on the availability of the domain name, we prefer .com or .fr (for France). Depending on the name you have chosen for your vacation rentals, your business manager will advise you on how to obtain the best domain name.

▼ Who owns the domain name?

Once you have definitively chosen your domain name, we can register it for you in our name first. Then, we will immediately take the necessary steps so that you become the owner by transfer of ownership. It takes approximately 60 days for this transfer to be valid.

hosting

Top

▼ What is your hosting provider?

In the formulas that we offer you, your website is hosted by OVH, a worldwide known provider. This is suitable for most small websites. For larger websites with more than 7 pages and a lot of pictures we invite you to take Flywheel, which offers extremely fast and high performance hosting. You will find it in our add-ons page.

Multilingual translation

Top

▼ What is the primary language that will be on my website?

Your site is provided in only one language (English or French). If you want your site in a language other than the 2 languages listed, you will have to provide us with the texts.

▼ How many languages can I offer on my website?

With Weglot, an add-on that we offer, you have the choice of a hundred languages. However, we invite you to consider the origin of your clientele. Some foreign language choices, such as Chinese for example, are not useful. Indeed, you may not know, but from their country, the Chinese will not be able to access your website. We recommend in any case, English, and the language of your country (if it is not English).

Your email address

Top

▼ Email address?

With your subscription, whether it is for a single page or a multipage, you have 2 email addresses to your domain name. For example contact@yourdomainname. If on the other hand you take Flywheel hosting as an add-on, you will have to take out a subscription with a professional email address provider such as zoho, but it remains cheap.

SEO

Top

▼ How does Yourwebsite.rentals optimize SEO?

SEO (Search Engine Optimization), is the process of improving the ranking of your site in search results. Yourwebsite.rentals, from the conception of your site we set up the necessary tools to optimize its referencing.

  • Optimization of permalinks,
  • Site map (sitemap.xml) that will list all URLs
  • Optimization of the weight of the images,
  • Descriptive image tags « alt »,
  • Site responsive mobile friendly,
  • Free SSL certificate,
  • Clean HTML coding,
  • Rational use of H1, H2 etc. tags so that search engines understand the structure and content of your website.

▼ Can I be on the first page of Google with my website?

Your rental property is surely located in a touristic place that attracts many holidaymakers every year. But, you will see for yourself, the first pages of Google are generally all monopolized by OTAs (Airbnb, Booking.com, HomeAway, Expédia…) who are fighting a bitter war for a booming industry. Colossal sums are committed for these first places. To be all clear and transparent, it goes without saying that it will be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to position yourself on THE first page of Google on (highly searched) keywords such as: « villa for rent – your region ». Moreover, as you already know, few Internet users exceed the first page when searching.

On the other hand, if you adopt the use of a blog on your site, (available only on multi-pages of more than 7 pages) you can position yourself over time on articles rich and relevant content that, (perhaps) will be authoritative with Google and can position itself on the first page. This may be articles on specialties from your region, or on experiences off the beaten track. The goal is to bring to your site the Internet user(s) making searches that will then certainly browse the other pages.
