Google is developing a new map function that will allow you to view, in addition to user data and reviews, also the prices of hotel rooms for the selected dates. In response to searches consisting of "hotel + location name", Google will in fact give its users the possibility of inserting two further search fields, arrival date and length of stay , through which the engine will draw up a series of results which will also include of the price of the rooms per night for the established period. By clicking on the price, a list of a series of OTAs that provide this information will appear, giving users the opportunity to book their stay directly from the portal site in question. With the help of this function, Google aims to make its users' searches faster and more efficient , offering the possibility of immediately viewing two fundamental aspects for planning a stay such as price and availability.
However, it must be added that a further aspect - which I believe is Venezuela Phone Number the real reason that will push Google to introduce this innovation - is that very probably, every time a user clicks on a price, they will be directed to the booking portal, and "Big G” will earn in PPC or revenue sharing . Below is an example showing the peculiarities of this new service: It should be noted that this function, still in the development phase , is currently made available only in America and is visible only to a limited number of users, and even the "advertiser" portals that provide room prices appear to be present in a very large number. limited (the Google example shows prices from Priceline and Expedia ). Furthermore, it is important to underline that this additional service will not change the positioning criteria of hotels on Google Maps , which will remain - assures Google - independent of the type of price indicated.

They don't give the interfaces time to do their job and they bombard me with emails that the rates are inconsistent. Plus I don't know if it happens to you too, HRS (with whom we only work via GDS) puts a low rate on the front page and when you go to make the booking it increases (well done guys!!) Expedia then reads the rate on the front page and I send the email. They say it's automatic!! Good work and good rate parity to everyone!
