Social Media Marketing built specifically for hotels & b&bs. Turn Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn into a steady source of local enquiries. Grow direct bookings and cut the commission you pay the OTAs. We already know how buyers in this trade search, which quotes get compared, and which pages turn a search into a phone call — so the plan starts from that rather than from a generic checklist.
Social Media Marketing for hotels & b&bs: what we're solving
- Trade-specific challenge: OTAs occupy generic accommodation searches and bid on your brand name.
- Second challenge: Extreme seasonality means content must be published months before demand.
- Where social media marketing fits: Posting only when there's a gap in the diary, so the algorithm never learns who to show you to.
- Typical deliverable for hotels & b&bs: Brand-term defence and a direct-booking incentive strategy

Our approach
How we build the campaign
1. Discovery
We learn your best jobs, your margins and the towns you actually want to work in — then build the plan around those, not vanity keywords.
2. Audit & baseline
Technical crawl, Google Business Profile review, competitor gap analysis and an AI visibility baseline across four assistants.
3. Foundations
Fix what's broken: site speed, indexing, schema, citations and profile completeness. This is where the early wins come from.
4. Content & authority
Service, town and industry pages written properly, plus local links and reviews that make them rank.
5. Report & refine
One monthly report in plain English: rankings, calls, form fills and what we're doing next. No 40-page PDFs.

The same trade behaves differently in each market. Here's how we adjust.

Fire safety, food hygiene and licensing
The Fire Safety (England) Regulations and a current fire risk assessment apply to all guest accommodation, food hygiene ratings must be displayed for breakfast service, and alcohol service needs a premises licence. Publishing your hygiene rating, accessibility information and fire-safety compliance reassures guests and feeds structured data that helps you appear in AI travel recommendations.
Seasonal content calendar
- JanThe single biggest research window of the year for summer stays — content must be live by mid-December.
- Apr–SepPeak occupancy; the SEO job shifts to reducing OTA commission on direct bookings.
- Oct–FebShoulder and winter breaks — dog-friendly, cosy, spa and short-break terms carry real volume now.

Social Media Marketing for hotels & b&bs: common questions
Is social media marketing worth it for hotels & b&bs?
Only if it produces enquiries, which is why we scope it against your job values. Turn Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn into a steady source of local enquiries. For hotels & b&bs, that usually means fewer, better pages targeted at the jobs you actually want, rather than broad traffic that never converts.
How do you tailor social media marketing to hotels & b&bs?
By using your own service, pricing and compliance detail as the raw material. Feature-specific pages: dog friendly, hot tub, parking, family rooms, accessible That specificity is what separates a page that ranks from one that reads like every competitor's.
Which locations do you cover for hotels & b&bs?
Cumbria in depth plus twenty UK cities including London, Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds and Bristol. Each location gets its own page, so you appear in the map packs that matter instead of one generic service area.
Which platforms should a Cumbrian business actually be on?
Fewer than you think. Trades usually win on Facebook and Instagram, B2B and professional firms on LinkedIn, tourism and hospitality on Instagram and TikTok. We'd rather run two channels brilliantly than five badly.
Do you create the content or do we have to?
We create it. Reels, short video edits, graphic design, photography direction and copy are all handled in-house — you approve the calendar, we do the rest.
Can you grow a brand-new account?
Yes. Account growth work combines consistent posting, local hashtag and location strategy, engagement in Cumbrian community groups, and influencer partnerships where they make sense.
