Answers

How do I get my inn to place at the top of a search?

Listings are ordered first by a) Listing plan subscribed and then b) random daily rotation.

For example, all 'premium' listings are above 'elite', which are above 'deluxe', which is above 'basic'. If there are multiple listings within a certain plan, then we randomly rotate these listings on a daily basis to be fair to all listings within that plan.

Please note, our listing order policy is subject to change.

See our plan comparison for more information.

Do I need to know HTML or be a "web guru" to have a nice web listing?

How do I link to/from my Web page?

Linking to your listing is easy! If you already have a property on our site, we've generated all the HTML you need to link to it! We provide a comprehensive list of linking examples on our links page. We provide short URLs (e.g., findbnb.com/ID) for business cards, classified ads, etc. to keep your costs down.

Depending on your listing plan, we allow between 0 and 2 outbound links to approved sites. Suitable external links include a link to your official inn website, and to either an availability calendar or a booking page (cannot be on a competing website). Please note that we do review the content of every property page on our site and may edit your content if you do not adhere to the policy.

Please visit our plan comparison page for more information on external linking.

Can I display more than 4 images?

Our 'Basic' plan allows up to 4 images with your listing. Upgrading to our 'Deluxe', 'Elite', or 'Premium' plans will enable your listing to show more photos.

See our plan comparison page for more information.

How do I get photos of my property on the web site?

You can upload your JPG photos online. You may also email photos to us or send us your original photos by mail.

If you choose to email photos to us, it will take a few business days for us to upload them. If you choose to mail the photos to us, it will take a few business days to scan them in using professional imaging software and upload them, plus any transit time. We do not charge a fee if you email or mail your photos.

You may email your photos to photos@findbnb.com or send them by mail to our postal address. When you send your photos to us in this way, please include your username and property name! If you would like us to return original photos to you, please include a $5 check to cover postage, shipping materials, and handling. If you send us photos by mail, remember that original photos are required for quality and copyright purposes. We cannot accept photocopies, unlicensed brochures, unlicensed postcards, slides or negatives.
