Q - Do you return photographs?
A - Yes, they are sent back together with the receipt and printout.
Q - Can you produce my text description from my brochure?
A - Yes, Send your brochure with your other items, but please mark on it clearly which parts of the text you would like included.
Q - Can I advertise more than one property on my page?
A - We have no objection to those wishing to advertise groups of different types of accommodation on just one page. But remember that the total of 200 words may be sufficient for giving an outline description of everything. If you are advertising a range of different types of accommodation - for example Bed & Breakfast and a Self Catering property when searching for specific properties eg B&B your page would come up well in searches for B&B but not when searching for Self Catering. You may prefer to take multiple pages to ensure each accommodation is promoted.
Q - Why didn't you update my page as requested?
A - If you are still seeing an old version of the page which is stored in your computer memory then to ensure you are getting the fresh version of the page from the internet,
1. Log onto the internet.
2. Go to your page.
3. Click the 'reload' or 'refresh' button at the top of your browser. This will ensure that your computer fetches the new version of your page from the server (instead of giving you the old one that has been retained in your computer's memory).
