How listings work

Overview of the Accommodation Section
(NB Shop and Restaurant listings work in a very similar way)

Our carefully designed accommodation system provides the means -

• For site visitors to navigate easily to find the accommodation they want, in the place they want, for the price they want
• For the site owner to operate and administrate the system easily, via the specially designed administration system.

The accommodation section is shown from different viewpoints:

• A user looking for accommodation
• An accommodation provider adding and maintaining their display
• The site administrator control

A user looking for accommodation
This system has been designed to enable users to find what they want quickly.

After clicking on the Accommodation link, the user is sent to an Accommodation Home Page similar to the one shown on the left, where suitable accommodation can be found quickly in the area chosen.

Facilities include:

• A regional search facility
• An alphabetical town search facility
• Four separate search criteria boxes

Also shown on the accommodation home page are:

• 'Deluxe' display listings
• A list of accommodation for that area, displayed at random on a rotating basis

After clicking on the name of the town, the database lists all accommodation within it, with the option to filter the listings again to match specific criteria:

When the user has located accommodation that looks interesting, clicking on the link for that accommodation will display the advertisement that the accommodation provider has paid to place on the system, including pictures, write ups, tariff, contact details etc.

Banner Space
aguide2california has an easy to use and fully integrated banner advertisement system that allows the site owner to control where an advertisement is placed and for how long. There are several fixed positions on each page for advertisements to be displayed and you can decide the price and exposure an advertiser receives.
