Stop paying OTA commission. Get direct bookings from Google instead.
RankFlow automatically publishes expert hotel and travel content to your WordPress site — targeting the searches that drive direct bookings with zero commission.
Booking.com, Expedia and Airbnb charge 15-25% commission on every booking they send you. That’s not a marketing service — that’s a permanent tax on your own property that grows every year as rates rise. Direct bookings via Google cost nothing.

What Hotel Owners Are Saying
★★★★★
“We were appearing on page 3 for most local searches. Six weeks after using RankFlow we were on page 1 for 14 different search terms. Direct enquiries increased noticeably and we’re paying zero commission on those bookings.”
B&B Owner
16-room B&B · Yorkshire Dales
★★★★★
“The seasonal content feature paid for itself in the first week. We published Christmas break articles in September, ranked before every local competitor, and had our best December on record entirely from direct bookings.”
Hotel Manager
Boutique Hotel · Lake District
★★★★★
“I was paying Booking.com £2,800 per month in commission. I haven’t cancelled it yet but I’ve reduced my reliance on it significantly. The local area guides RankFlow published are driving guests who book directly on our website.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Hotel owner questions, honest answers.
How can SEO help my hotel get more direct bookings?
SEO helps your hotel appear when travellers search for accommodation in your area. When someone searches “romantic hotel in the Cotswolds” or “dog friendly B&B near York”, a hotel with strong SEO appears at the top — getting direct bookings with zero OTA commission. RankFlow publishes hundreds of targeted articles to build this presence automatically.
How much does Booking.com charge in commission?
Booking.com typically charges 15-25% commission on every booking. Expedia charges 15-30%. A 10-room property at 70% occupancy averaging £120 per night pays over £60,000 per year in Booking.com commission alone. Direct bookings through Google SEO cost zero commission. RankFlow costs £97 once.
Does RankFlow work for small B&Bs and guest houses?
Yes — RankFlow is particularly powerful for independent properties because they cannot compete with large chain marketing budgets but absolutely can dominate local search results. A B&B that comprehensively covers its local area with SEO content will outrank chain hotels that publish generic national content.
What kind of content gets published for hotels?
Articles targeting searches travellers make when planning trips — local area guides, things to do nearby, seasonal breaks, occasion searches for romantic weekends and anniversaries, specific room type searches, wedding venue accommodation and long-tail booking keywords for your exact location. Every article scored out of 100 before publishing — nothing under 70 goes live.
How long until my hotel ranks on Google?
Most hotels see Google impressions within 2-4 weeks of publishing content. Meaningful direct booking enquiries typically build within 6-8 weeks. Local accommodation searches with lower competition can rank within days. Our own site went from 899 clicks to 112,000 monthly impressions in 90 days using this approach.
What is the founding member price?
RankFlow is currently £97 per site as a one-time lifetime payment — only during our launch period. After this, RankFlow moves to $29/month. Founding members lock in unlimited access forever at the £97 price. Start with the completely free trial — 3 articles published, no card needed.
