Vacation Rental Owners can now create their own Blogs on VR Referrals

March 11, 2011 - PRLog -- Having a Vacation Rental Blog can help you market your vacation rental property online and get more bookings.
VR Referrals - Vacation Rental Directory Site - announced an option for Vacation Rental Owners to create their own Blogs  ( http://www.vacationrentalreferrals.com/blogs/vr-referrals )  at no additional charge.
Some of the main advantages of having your Blog are:
1. Use your Blog to drive additional traffic to your website or Vacation Rental listing(s) - increase your bookings
2. Inform visitors and guests about recent changes to your rental property
3. Attract visitors interested in the local events near your Vacation Rental.

Writing a blog can be a challenge, especially when you first start one.  Here are some tips and ideas you might want to consider.

  1. Updated photos or videos of your property, close ups or new additions will add more interests in your rental.  If you added new features to your property or changed something, write about it and add a photo/video.
  2. Add lots of information about the local area, links and travel resources.
  3. Write about upcoming events to add more interest in your location.  Add related articles or news information about such events from the web.  This will help people who are interested in finding out about local events in your area find you and possibly book your property.
  4. Don't forget to write about recent events that you attended.  Add related videos, photos and your comments.  Write about what it is that you enjoyed at such events.
  5. Write about what makes your property unique.
  6. Don't forget to write your own opinion about the advantages of renting a vacation home over a hotel or motel room(s).
  7. Share your thoughts about recent additions that might have happened because of a recent feedback that you've received.
  8. Add a page with frequently asked questions together with answers.  Encourage visitors to ask additional questions, if they feel that something is still not covered by the already given answers.
  9. Ask your readers questions.  This is a great way to get your readers involved with your Blog and create connections.  Not to mention that you can get valuable feedback to your questions!
 10. Offer discounts to your readers for booking early or during seasons that you know might be slow.

Ideas will come to you as you get more involved and write regularly.
