Google Hotel Ads optimization is the work I do to make a property rank, convert and price correctly on Google. I set up your Google Business Profile, free booking links and Hotel Ads, and make sure your direct booking path is competitive.
What I plan around in Indianapolis: Indianapolis 500 and Brickyard events; Gen Con; Colts and Pacers seasons; Conventions and NCAA tournaments. Guests I price for: Event travellers on 2 to 4 night stays, convention attendees midweek. Where I start: Indy 500 and Gen Con premiums set a year ahead, and convention-calendar pricing.
Indianapolis sells mostly through Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com. Indianapolis hotels balance conventions, sports, racing and business travel. With my five-star hotel revenue background, I help with convention group pricing, event-week controls for the 500 and Gen Con, and weekday corporate rates that keep rooms filled in the quieter weeks between the big events.
The service in general is described on my google hotel ads optimization page; this page covers how I apply it in Indianapolis.
Your profile is often the first thing a traveler sees. I complete it, correct the details and keep rates and availability accurate.
Free booking links cost nothing to appear in. I set them up, then judge whether paid Hotel Ads are worth it for your hotel.
A click only helps if the booking path converts. I review your site and engine against the OTAs and fix what loses the guest.
Reviews on these sites travel with the property. I set up a routine to collect and answer them consistently.
“Indianapolis has two dates every owner should know by heart: the Indy 500 in late May and Gen Con in August. Both fill the city and can be priced a year ahead. Conventions and NCAA events add more, and Colts games fill autumn weekends. Between events, weekdays depend on business travel.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
Outside conventions, demand is quiet; I lower weekend floors, keep weekday business rates steady and price big convention dates individually.
College basketball tournaments and spring conventions fill downtown; I price tournament weekends as premiums and keep two-night minimums near Lucas Oil Stadium and Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
The whole month of May builds toward race day; I price qualifying weekends above ordinary May and race weekend highest, with long minimum stays near the Speedway.
Summer concerts and the Brickyard weekend lift some dates; I price those as premiums and keep other summer weekdays on business and leisure rates.
Gen Con fills downtown for several days; I price homes within a walk of the Convention Center highest and set minimum stays that cover all four convention days.
Colts games, the National FFA Convention, marching band championships and holiday events keep demand steady; I price each event weekend individually.
Google shows your hotel, your rates and your OTAs side by side, and the direct link only wins if it is accurate and competitive. A modest amount of careful setup here is the cheapest way I know to move bookings off commission-heavy channels.
Price Indy 500 weekend as the top band, opened a year ahead with long stays.
Price Gen Con week as a second top band for homes near downtown.
Add NCAA tournaments and big conventions as premiums.
Add Colts home games for nearby homes.
Set weekday corporate rates between events.
A new Google listing
You have just connected Google and want it to rank and convert from the first weeks, not after months of guessing.
Views but few bookings
Visibility looks fine and conversion does not, which usually means content, photos or rate plans on Google.
Commission without much return
You pay Google commission and its share of bookings is small next to your other channels.
A portfolio with uneven quality
Some listings are polished on Google and others were never finished, and nobody owns the standard.
Send me the Google listing or property links and your channel manager. I check how the property ranks and reads today before we speak.
A scorecard for Google: content, photos, rates and promotions, policies and reviews, with every fix ranked by impact.
I make the changes live on Zoom in your Google account or through your channel manager, and explain each one so you can maintain it.
Step 4
About 30 days later I look at impressions, conversion and booking share on Google and adjust what the numbers say to adjust.
I quote Google Hotel Ads optimization per property after a short chat. You get a fixed scope and price before any work starts.
| Option | What you get | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Single property | Google Hotel Ads optimization for one property | Quoted |
| Several properties | One scope and one price for a group on Google Hotel Ads | Quoted |
