Services for accommodation-providers and travellers

The availability system:

The bed.gb.com Availability System does automatically what accommodation providers have a natural inclination to do: if we can't accommodate someone we pass the enquiry on to someone else. Trouble is we don't usually know if that someone else has availability either. The Availability System has no such trouble in knowing.

The Availability System works on 3 levels:

Level 1:

We put a search bar on a page of your website. Already this gives your site an even more professional look. The customer thinks so and is motivated to check your availability for their required date(s). (Experiment with the search bar below yourself.) In this case there is availability and the surfer is invited to book.

Nights:	Room:	Date:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14	All Single Double Twin Triple Family

Level 2:

The customer uses the search bar and finds you do not have a room. Use the following search bar to see how he is referred to others in the group. The information you now see is live in the Marlow group. This is the database where all the participants of this group transfer enquiries which they cannot handle to colleagues.

Enquirers whom you cannot accommodate are delighted when you tell them that they may find availability at bed.gb.com.

Of course, this works in reverse and you benefit from referrals from others in the local network. Everyone is a winner!

The system works because we keep it up-to-date. Why? We don't like being told by customers that our website is wrong!

Current statistics show that most of us get an extra 7%-50% business from the system.

The system's database is also linked to a highly ranked advertising portal website. Read get business for more information.

If you're on a broadband connection please go to our short audio-visual presentation to get a full understanding of how it works.

Members tell us of one great side-effect - though business is better they are taking fewer calls because web surfers check availability before phoning.

The system is bundled in with our hosting package and built in as standard into all accommodation websites we design.

If you already have a website hosted elsewhere it can however be bought as a stand-alone product for only £4.32 per month.

New! We have invented our own technology for putting an availability bar on your website without it coming through a frame except for access to the database. This enables the bar to be customised, take up less space, put it anywhere on a page and load faster.
