Oil Spill Special Close to Capped
It’s been more than three months since the BP Oil Spill in the Gulf. Thanks to efforts this week, it appears that BP may finally have halted the leak, or at least slowed it considerably. Will the cap hold? Only time will tell. But one thing that won’t hold for long is our $10 listing special.
Through Saturday, all new and renewed by owner vacation rental listings on Scenic Rentals are just $10 for a 12 month listing. Every listing of course includes our standard features – twelve color photos, 24/7 access to the owner control panel, a dedicated URL link to your property and a free online property availability calendar. Plus, we’re creating a Facebook page for every property, we feature properties on our Twitter page and often promo vacation rental homes on this blog, so you’ll get three times the exposure for the same small fee.
Why list with Scenic instead of the “big guys?”
We know there are many property listing sites out there to choose from, so why us? We may not be the biggest, but we believe we’re one of the best. Google believes it too, since we’ve got a page rank of 5 and are steadily climbing to the first page of natural search results. Our SEO campaigns are in full force and we’re optimizing our site to better serve the needs of our property owners. Over the last year, we’ve implemented a number of new features like the blog, our Facebook pages and the property calendar. Our goals are in reach and we’re working hard every day to be the best by owner vacation rental site on the web.
Notice we said ”the best,” not ”the biggest.” By limiting each city to 60 properties, we’ve positioned Scenic Rentals to be a streamlined site that caters to our property owners and those seeking a by owner vacation rental for their next vacation. With a 60 property limit, vacationers won’t have to sift through hundreds or even thousands of listings and owners won’t be competing with every property on the block. Limiting the number of properties ensures that the unique features of each vacation rental are highlighted and eliminates the burying of properties that tends to happen on larger sites.
Why are we doing this?
Out of the goodness of our heart. Well, that and because we’re a family owned and operated site dedicated to providing a quality service for a reasonable price. As property owners ourselves, we fully understand the challenges of successfully marketing a by owner vacation rental without breaking the bank. By implementing cost-effective strategies and viral marketing techniques, we’re using the Internet as it was originally intended – a low-cost tool to communicate with millions.
