Property coverage/exposure
With tourism being as it is today, property rentals have exploded. Our site offers online coverage for your property and puts you directly in contact with accommodation seekers.
Why not rely on our infrastructure and traffic to help you book your property. www.botswana-direct.com enjoys top positions in many of the major search engines, receiving an average of 4,000 unique visitors per day! All you need is an email address and you can let us take care of the rest.
Commission free - deal direct and SAVE!
We put you directly in contact with people seeking accommodation. The client saves money and you can charge a higher rate because no commission is being taken off by your agent.
We notify you by SMS
When you receive a booking enquiry an SMS will be sent to your cell phone notifying you. The best thing is, this service is free of charge!
Cheaper than the competition
Not only do we charge no commission but our yearly rental is cheaper than anybody else offering a similar service. How is this possible you ask?
Allowing updating through the control panel not only gives you, the user, more control - it saves us time as well. Aside from allowing us to charge the most reasonable rentals on our website, this lets us concentrate more on constantly bettering the service we are offering to our customers.
Update your properties at will
We pride ourselves in being the first company to offer this service to its clients.
Once registered, you will be given access to a secure control panel. Here you will be able administer your personal details as well as all aspects of your property (e.g. Add new pictures).

Update whenever and as often as you like!
But I have my own website
The problem you will face in this situation is high placement in search engines. One property will struggle to draw the required traffic online.
With our extensive database of properties and search engine expertise we can guarantee a far greater number of hits for your property.
The next problem is that not everyone is web savvy enough to maintain their own website. www.botswana-direct.com offers you the ability to make changes to your property online with our user-friendly control panel.
Increase bookings with property statistics
When you sign up with us you will be able to see detailed statistics for your property. The key quantity in marketing your property online is booking enquiries per hit. This figure is given by the number of booking enquiries you have received divided by the number of hits, or views, your property has received. You will be able to monitor this figure over time and see how making changes to your property can affect it. It goes without saying that this figure must be as large as possible.
Most importantly, you will also have access to what the average BE per hit figure is for all properties in your region - this will give you a very good indication as to how your property is performing.
The control panel comes with a page giving guidelines on how to present your property as well as possible.
Nothing to lose!
We offer a 100%, no questions asked, money back guarantee.
