Directories to advertise your B & B

Directories - seems to be quite a lot of them - choose carefully. 

Every day inbox's fill up with emails from directories claiming they will generate dozens of leads for your business and all you need to do is send them money!

Some seem to work quite well, others are just a waste of time. If you like the look of a directory then always ask some questions before committing to pay for advertising.

1. How long has the directory been established?
2. How many visitors does the site get each week / month?
3. What experience do the site owners have in the Tourism industry?
4. What exactly do you get for your money?
5. Is there a money back guarantee or free trial period?

Those questions should be easy to answer if the site is legitimate and has a serious interest in wanting to promote your business.

Listed below are some directories we are happy to recommend based on personal experience.
