The summer holidays are over for most of us. However, September and October can still be productive periods for Gites owners. With the kids back to school, many choose to take a break and enjoy the peace. Half-term is always a busy period so how about booking a holiday now?

For our Gites owners it must have been another busy month answering the phone / replying to emails! The web site traffic this month has huge again this month! With over 5000 page views PER DAY, and over 6400 unique visitors.

Our web host has increased the bandwidth again to cope with the demand - so you should be seeing an improved performance over the next month.

Of course, the good news for the owners advertising on our site is the demand for rentals. Our featured sites really do work. We had one delighted owner tell us they fully booked through to September. Our web logs show for August that Featured sites outnumbered Classified Adverts by 2:1 even though there are more classified adverts. The public does like to see a photograph!! So here is a special offer to existing owners ONLY using our classified adverts - upgrade to Feature status for £35 (for a whole year). On the credit card payment screen click the Upgrade option.
