General information about listing on The Great Karoo
If you have a tourism related business in the Great Karoo you can apply to be listed on this website.
This will give you :
1. A listing on a page under an appropriate category with a small photo, a short paragraph of text and contact particulars, and
2. A "More Info" page with a pageful of text and up to 8 enlargeable photographs. There will also be information about your facilities offered, languages spoken and your accreditations (such as Star grading, AA grading etc).
Accommodation establishments who belong to Nightsbridge can list for FREE and pay a 10% commission on confirmed bookings.
Attractions and most activities (unless commercial) as well as places to eat can list for FREE as these enhance the interest of the site to the ultimate benefit of its members.
If an establishment offers both accommodation and an attraction/activity it may apply for a free listing for the activity but this free listing may not make mention of the accommodation.
To qualify as an attraction/activity it must be formally organised. For example, one can sit in a garden and watch birds; this would not constitute "birdwatching" in terms of a free listing. On the other hand, if a place offers guided tours to birders (NOT restricted to accommodation guests), this would qualify. ZAWebs reserves the right to make the final decision as to what qualifies as an attraction or activity.
