My name is Tim Brady. Today, I am an Innkeeper at a small in (6 rooms) in New England. But for the last 15 years, I have been an I.T. guy, working on everything from network engineering, to web development and SEO. I have managed website design, photography, content production and/or code for countless sites over the years and have learned a lot from the experiences. While Innkeeping is new to me, technology certainly was not…
After becoming an Innkeeper, I realized that there are probably more directory sites in this industry than any other I have ever worked in. I was overwhelmed with daily “Add your listing” emails.
Looking around, I found a decent guide at InnStar.com, however it looks like the site hasn’t been updated in over a year. The author there was also rating the sites from a different perspective than I would have. Being a young innkeeper (After all, I am only 33) I represent a different demographic of inn-goer. My friends and I are definitely part of the new generation of traveler who uses the internet as their exclusive source to select their destinations and book their travel.
As luck would have it I needed to demo some new code for a client so I decided that I would put together a website of my own. It started as a guide of these directories, but has evolved into a comprehensive guide of all things inn related.
I encourage you to leave feedback, comment on posts and to submit any sites you would like reviewed. Feel free to email me at Innkeeper@innkeeping.org or post your comments directly to the site (site comments are moderated for spam and inappropriate content only). Thanks for reading!
