Guarantee.
At the end of the first year we will not charge a renewal fee if we have not delivered at least 100 full views of your site.

When browsing our site visitors see summary listings either by searching or looking at regional lists. They will probably only look at your full site details if genuinely interested.

This means that most viewings of your pages are of high quality.

How we count views.

  • We only count views of your property details page. Views of your property summary in search results, regional listings, your calendar, image pages, or offsite links do not count.
  • As long as you have logged in we don't count views of your site by yourself.

Whether the site visitors then make contact with you will depend on how well your property is described and whether the suitability of the property, the pricing or house swapping terms are appropriate


NB. You are allowed 8 standard images on your advert as part of the annual fee.
