There would be many things to say about the numbers, but let’s focus on the very core problem: were the Google Ads campaign underperforming for this hotel?

Last week Amazon added code to its digital properties to block FLoC from tracking visitors using Google’s Chrome browser

By activating smart bidding strategies with a fine tuned target CPA, this clearly improved demand results whilst maintaining an adequate acquisition cost

For the direct channel, Google’s Hotel Free Booking Link represents a new opportunity to compete with OTAs and drive more direct traffic

Ensuring your direct sales maintain their quota is in your hands. If you wait for everything to return to normal, OTA’s will be the ones to exploit change.

If you wait until the month ends to review your analytics data, you will be missing out on exactly what consumers are looking for right now

If you’re not participating in metasearch yet, free booking links are a fantastic opportunity to get connected and start driving some extra traffic
