Examples

This is how your entry looks

Your advertising appears exactly where travellers plan their Italian holiday, on the matching town and region page, clearly marked as an advert, right among the editorial content. Three formats: the banner at the top of the page, the card in the accommodation list and the sticky side banner that travels along on every device.

Common questions

Good to know

What does an advertising slot include?
A photo, a short text and a direct link to your website or booking page, placed on the town and region page that fits you. Enquiries and clicks go straight to you, with no booking commission at all.
How long does a booking run?
Annually, for businesses and owners alike. After twelve months you decide whether it continues.
Can I change the text and photo later?
Yes, at any time. Send us a short note and we update your entry: photo, text or link.
Do you take a commission on bookings?
No. There is one fixed annual rate and nothing else. Your guests book directly with you and you keep the full margin.
Do I get a link to my website?
Yes, the photo, headline and button of your slot link straight to your website or booking page. The link is marked as advertising, as Google's guidelines for paid placements require. Its value lies in real visitors and in being named exactly where travellers and AI assistants look for their information about Italy.
Can I see how often my slot is viewed?
Yes, automatically. At the start of each month you receive your report by email: impressions, clicks and click rate for your slot, counted without bots. That way you have the benefit in black and white.
Is there a badge for my website?
Yes. Every partner receives the badge “Partner von italien.de” with the year, in German or Italian, light or dark, as SVG and PNG. It links to your page with us and shows your guests where the recommendation comes from.
What does it cost?
For hotels and holiday homes: standard town booking from €199 per year, premium town booking with your own page from €499, premium region booking from €1,999. For businesses without rooms, meaning mountain huts, restaurants, cable cars or wineries: Business Town from €299, Business Plus from €599, Business Region from €1,199. The details are with the packages.

Questions from owners

Before you enquire

What do I need for the advertising slot?
A good photo, the name of the house, the town, two sentences and a link: your website, your booking form or simply your email address. For your own page with Premium, a few more photos and the amenities. We set up the rest.
I do not have a website of my own. Does it still work?
Yes. With Standard the button leads to your email or to your page on a portal. With Premium you get a page of your own with us, with gallery, map, amenities and an enquiry form that lands directly in your inbox.
I have several houses.
Each house gets its own advertising slot, one package always covers one property. Write to us with the number of houses and we will make you an offer.
What if I am fully booked?
Let us know and we pause the slot, then switch it back on as soon as you have space. The term keeps running and there is no fee for it.
Where exactly does my house appear?
In three places: in the accommodation list of the town page your house belongs to, on the region page and as the first card in the holiday home overview for your region, where travellers search specifically for a holiday home. For example: a house near Greve in Chianti appears on the Greve page, on the Tuscany page and on italien.de/ferienhaeuser/toskana.
Can I tell whether it pays off?
At the start of each month you receive an email showing how often your house was seen and clicked, with Premium also how often your page was opened and how many enquiries came in. Bookings reach you directly, so you see those anyway.
