Your website's health is 50 out of 100
We read 6 pages of baysidegroup.co.za on 18 October 2026, the way Google and AI assistants do, and found 15 things to fix. These cost you the most guests:
- 1Your home page doesn't say whose it is
Google and AI assistants read a page's title and top line to know what it is about.
What to do: Put your hotel's name and town in your home page's title and as its first heading.
- 2Your website is heavy on a phone
Most guests look on their phone, often on mobile data, and leave a page that's slow to open.
What to do: Ask whoever looks after your website to compress your photos and files.
- No button to book on your home page, so a guest who wants to book direct has to hunt for one
- No WhatsApp link, where most guests in India ask first
- A phone number a guest can tap to call
- AI assistants can read your website
Two things to do this week
Each one comes from what we found above, and each wins back guests who book you direct.
- 1Show your own price on Google
Google lists the booking sites' prices for your room but not your website's, so a guest who finds you there can only book through them.
How: Ask your booking engine to connect you to Google's free booking links. Most do it at no cost, and your price then shows beside theirs.
- 2Your home page doesn't say whose it is
Google and AI assistants read a page's title and top line to know what it is about.
How: Put your hotel's name and town in your home page's title and as its first heading.
With OneHorizyn you see every week whether each one worked, in guests and in rupees.
We've already done 3 of the 6 readings your first look is built from
Everything above came from what anyone can see: Google, Google Hotels, Google Maps, an AI assistant and your own website. Your hotel's own reading fills in the rest and turns each finding into a figure you can act on.
- Your price on booking sites16 sites for one night
- Google and Google Mapsrated 4 from 1,926 reviews
- Your website6 pages read, health 50 out of 100
- What AI assistants saynot read yet
- Your reviews, week by weekonly on your own hotel's reading
- Your price every night aheadonly on your own hotel's reading
Your own reading takes about half an hour, and nothing has to be connected to your systems.
There is no commission on any of these, and this page says nothing about them. We haven't looked at any of them for you.

- Conferences and company travel
- Travel agents and tour operators

- Weddings and events
The planners and families booking weddings in Durban, who fill your rooms for three nights at a time and never touch a booking site.
- Conferences and company travel
The companies running meetings and incentive trips near you, and the firms whose staff already stay in Durban every week.
- Travel agents and tour operators
The agents and operators selling Durban to guests abroad, who send the same rooms again and again once you're on their list.

Festivals, matches and conferences in and around Durban that name hotels to stay at. Being on that list costs nothing, and most hotels never ask.
- The nights your town fills up

- What your competitors charge, nightly
Their price for every night ahead, not the one night on this page, so you know which nights you are leaving money on.
