HOW To Add A 360 Image To Booking.com! 🚀

So, on today's podcast, I wanted to talk to you about the power of 360 pictures and how the big OTAs are starting to incorporate it into their listings. So I'm going to very quickly cut away to on site. As I was walking up to the property and I just documented what I was doing. And then what I'm going to do is I'm going to come back and I'm going to show you how I uploaded the 360 picture to our booking.com listing. Now, if this is the first time that you're tuning in, you'll notice that this little series that I'm doing as part of the podcast is helping a local host here in Javier try and get bookings for an apartment. So on the street recording for the Boostie podcast.

Go away, son. So I'm on the way to the apartment, the one that we've been working on, and I'm going to be taking some 360 pictures. Now, those of you that are on booking.com you'll notice in the property section you can add 360 photos. So I've got my camera. I'm heading down to the apartment now. I'm going to get my coffee and I'll show you how I do it and then I'll show you how I upload it to booking.com later on when I'm back in the office.

So now we're back in the office after being at the apartment and I managed to capture a couple of 360 pictures, all on the GoPro Max. So you can go and find this on Amazon or directly on the website itself. And these costs anywhere between sort of four hundred and six hundred dollars or euros, wherever your sort of budget is. You can find them cheaper on ebay. And what this bay able to do is able to take, as it sees here, got two lenses, a 360 image. Now, what we've done is we've gone into the property and we've taken one and I really wanted to get something of the living area, the living room, because the pictures weren't doing it justice just how big it is for an apartment of that size. So by doing this, it means that now on the actual listing itself, the user will be able to go in the future. Potential guests will be able to check it out and have a proper 360 image of it. And they'll be able to really show off how big the apartment living room is. Now, all we've done, taking it on here, it then syncs directly into My iPhone. I've air dropped this onto the computer. So as you can see on my screen, it's sat here and all I've done now is I've clicked on Add Picture and I've just chosen the best out of the two on. It's gonna very quickly upload and then I'll be able to show you how it looks once we have completed that process. So as you can see, the image is now on the extranet on booking.com and if we go through and look at the listing, you'll see that it's got a 360 panorama tab to it. And it just means that now when a guest comes onto here, future potential guests, they can get a good visible walkthrough of the property. Even though we've just focused on the living area, which is the main thing that I wanted to feature, it's. It's better than having nothing. Now. Ideally, yes, I'd have it where the light was balancing better, but done is better than perfect. By having this on now, it will help the property stand out more than what it was previously. The pictures are in the right order. They all look a lot better than what they did before. And they're all tagged, which again is another important feature that Booking.com want for you to do. So that's what we've done on booking.com today. We'll be back tomorrow and we will highlight some else that we have done. There's going to be another little booking.com hack that we want to show you. So make sure that you tune in when we do that.
