B&B 1680<\/a> co-owner Joost van Wijk did the math and he calculated a 60% increase in direct bookings for his charming bed and breakfast directly attributable to the website he built with Yola. That means more business and less commissions to third party booking agents!<\/p>\n

A rapport of trust is established instantly as visitors to the site can check out reviews from past guests pulled into the homepage via a widget provided by BedandBreakfast.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n
