xport.de

Based in Germany, xport.de works exclusively with hotels and hospitality businesses, ranging from apartment buildings and small boutique properties to larger luxury accommodations. The agency has operated in this niche since 2001, positioning itself around a single focus: helping hoteliers reduce dependency on OTAs by building direct booking channels and online visibility. Its client list spans city hotels, cabin and boutique hotels, and specialty properties such as a chocolate-themed hotel, indicating experience across varied hospitality formats and property sizes. The service range centers on hotel website creation designed for direct, commission-free bookings, alongside search engine optimization and search engine advertising to improve placement on Google and Bing. Additional services include newsletter marketing aimed at prompting guest bookings, social media marketing through regular content and targeted ads, and influencer marketing to extend reach to new audiences. The agency also offers metasearch management for listings on platforms such as TripAdvisor, system consulting for selecting and integrating hotel software, and Generative Engine Optimization aimed at improving how hotel brands appear in AI tools like ChatGPT and Gemini. It also references subsidized consulting services, noting its status as a listed BAFA consulting company that can help hotels access funding toward website and marketing development. Work is described as personalized and tailored to each property rather than templated.
