ArrangeYourVacation.com and 1001-Ferienwohnungen.de Announce Facebook ‘Like’ Button Integration

July 8, 2010 - PRLog -- ArrangeyourVacation.com and 1001-Ferienwohnungen.de, two leading accommodation portals, specializing in vacation rentals rented direct by owners worldwide, have announced an implementation of the Facebook® “Like” button across all their vacation rental listing pages. To aid vacation rentals businesses in putting its marketing message in front of more travelers, ArrangeyourVacation.com and 1001-Ferienwohnungen.de will be helping them to tap into the power of Facebook®, and access to over 400 million users.

"We have some exciting news – we have already implemented some great social marketing tools for vacation rental owners in the past, but now we have a brand new and very cool stuff!", said Milan Matchev, CEO and co-founder of http://ArrangeyourVacation.com and http://1001-Ferienwohnungen.de.

When the users “Like” an accommodation, it is instantly broadcasted to their Facebook® walls and to all their friends with links back to the particular vacation rental listing page. Facebook® has more than 400 million active users, according to the company, and those users share more than a billion pieces of content (photos, videos, web links) each week, so it's important to make the best of it.

For an example of when a visitor might use the “Like” button, lets say you had a great experience at a vacation rental that’s listed on ArrangeYourVacation.com and you want to tell your friends how much you love that accommodation. Simply go to the listing page on ArrangeYourVacation.com and click the “Like” button. Within seconds, your friends will be able to see how you feel about the accommodation!  The “Like” button can be found on the left side of every vacation rentals listing under the images section.

Social media vacation rentals marketing, if done the right way, can be a powerful way to increase bookings and gain exposure for vacation rentals. With the “Like” button, travelers can see the travel preferences of their friends on Facebook® as well as how many people “Like” a vacation rental or accommodation that they are researching.

"This is a great plugin for vacation rental companies to use on their websites and we are prod to be one of the first vacation rental portals,  who have implemented this for their users", added Milan Matchev
