If you are a Hotelier or Tour Operator in Riviera Maya, the "Expedia Tax" is your biggest expense line after payroll. It doesn't have to be.
1. The "Brand Highjacking" Trap
Here is a brutal truth most agencies won't tell you:
OTAs are bidding on your own name.
Go to Google right now. Search for your hotel's name. Who is the first result? 9 times out of 10, it's Booking.com or Expedia, using your trademark to steal your traffic.
Key Takeaway
You are paying a 20% commission for a customer who was already looking for you. That is not marketing; that is a toll booth.
The Solution: Brand Protection. We launch Google Ads campaigns specifically to dominate your brand name keywords, ensuring the #1 result always leads to your booking engine, not theirs.
2. The "Trust Gap" (Why they leave your site)
Why do users book on Expedia instead of your site?
- Speed: If your site takes >3 seconds to load, they bounce.
- Fear: "Is this hotel legitimate? The photos look old."
- Incentive: OTAs offer points. You need to offer better.
