I've advertised on this site for 12 years.
They have now changed the way the interact with advertisers and we now have a choice of four levels. We've always paid their fees on a yearly basis and now they want about POUNDS 800.00 for the advert.
Their communications are absolutely awful. They take too long to reply to emails and even then don't answer all the questions.
I will not renew with this site ever again as they are just after the cash. As an individual owner, you can not compete with all the agencies they now have premium advertising on their sites - my holiday apartment will never now get anywhere on the search results. A really poor decision.
In my opinion, go elsewhere for your advertising and avoid all the HomeAway brands as they are too expensive.
