Your website

Your website's health is 55 out of 100

We read 6 pages of thehoughtonhotel.com on 18 October 2026, the way Google and AI assistants do, and found 20 things to fix. These cost you the most guests:

  1. 1
    Your 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.

  2. 2
    Many of your pages have the same title

    Google can't tell them apart, so it shows fewer of them.

    What to do: Give each page its own title: rooms, dining, offers, location.

  • A button to book on your home page
  • A WhatsApp link for guests
  • A phone number a guest can tap to call
  • AI assistants can read your website
What to do this week

One thing to do this week

Each one comes from what we found above, and each wins back guests who book you direct.

  1. 1
    Your 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.

    How: Ask whoever looks after your website to compress your photos and files.

With OneHorizyn you see every week whether each one worked, in guests and in rupees.

What this page doesn't cover at all
The guests who never come through a booking site

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.

  • Weddings and events
  • Conferences and company travel
  • Travel agents and tour operators
  • Events that publish a list of hotels
  • The nights your town fills up
  • What your competitors charge, nightly
  • Weddings and events

    The planners and families booking weddings in Johannesburg, 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 Johannesburg every week.

  • Travel agents and tour operators

    The agents and operators selling Johannesburg to guests abroad, who send the same rooms again and again once you're on their list.

  • Events that publish a list of hotels

    Festivals, matches and conferences in and around Johannesburg that name hotels to stay at. Being on that list costs nothing, and most hotels never ask.

  • The nights your town fills up

    Which dates Johannesburg runs out of rooms months ahead, so you price them before your competitors do, rather than after.

  • 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.

Win your guests back to your own website

OneHorizyn finds where your hotel loses money and tells you what to fix first, every week:

  • Booking sites
    When they sell your room for less than your own website, so more guests book you direct
  • Your competitors
    Their prices in Johannesburg for the nights ahead, so you price every night right
  • Google and AI
    What they tell guests about you, and how to get recommended first
