Frequently Asked Questions - free advice for internet advertising with iknow-uk

I already have a website. Why should I advertise with iknow-uk?

Literally hundreds of thousands of websites exist for accommodation in the UK. The quality of these sites varies greatly but at the end of the day it is all about results.

Are you happy with the number of booking enquiries your website generates?
Do the enquiries from your website fully book your accommodation?

If the answer to either question is 'No' then it makes sense to try an online marketing free trial with us. Most of our customers already have a website but find that their presence on iknow-uk generates far more bookings than their own site. Read what our customers say about us.

Why should I switch to iknow-uk?

If you are currently listed on directories that provide a steady stream of commission-free bookings that fill up your property then stick with it. If not then what have you got to loose by giving an iknow-uk website a try? With our Free Trial and money back guarantee you can maintain the online marketing you already have and compare the performance at no financial risk.

Can I sign up if I don't have a web site?

Yes. As long as you are able to send and receive emails and can supply us with text and good quality photographs of your property you can advertise with us.

If I advertise on your site will I get bombarded with spam?

No. Your email address is not published anywhere on the website so cannot be picked up by anyone wishing to obtain addresses without permission. We also have a Privacy Policy that prevents us from passing on your contact details to any third party, other than those acting specifically on behalf of iknow-uk on activities that relate only to the promotion of iknow-uk websites.

Will the enquiries contain viruses?

No. All booking enquiries are free from viruses as they come directly from our own email server. However, as soon as you enter into email correspondence with people making enquiries you will run the same risks as with all email correspondence. We strongly recommend that you run good quality anti virus software on your computers and keep it up to date with all updates provided by the software supplier.

Can I have a link to my website?

Yes. We operate a free website advertising policy for our customers based on a reciprocal link, so if you link to us (using our approved link code) then a link back to your site will be activated. We have this policy because links are a significant contributor to search engine visibility. Your website will benefit greatly from the link from us, just as our sites will also benefit from the link from you. This will further enhance our search engine status, so generating more visitors, so creating more enquiries and bookings for our customers.

Can you Guarantee results?

Yes. We guarantee that your iknow-uk online marketing will receive enough enquiries to pay for itself in less than 6 months, although most listings achieve this in a matter of weeks! There are conditions with the guarantee because, for example, we cannot make bad photographs good or influence your ability to take bookings from enquiries. See our guarantee terms and conditions.

If more properties in my area sign up will my enquiries go down?

No. The site is designed to increase its search engine prominence as more properties sign up. The more customers we have the more visitors we get and more enquiries are made.

Do you offer discounts?

We offer a variety of discounts, such as in the first year of a new site, recommending a friend or for multiple properties. View all our discounts.
