Integration with Social Channels

Why it is important

Tracking the source of your restaurant reservations, especially from social channels like Google, Facebook, or Instagram, is crucial for several reasons:

Understanding Customer Behavior: Knowing which channels are driving traffic to your website helps you understand where your customers are most active and engaged. This insight is valuable in tailoring your marketing strategies to the platforms that yield the highest engagement and conversion rates.

Effective Marketing Spend: By identifying the most effective channels, you can allocate your marketing budget more efficiently. If you notice a higher number of reservations coming from Instagram compared to other platforms, for example, it might be wise to invest more in Instagram advertising and content creation.

Personalized Customer Experience: Understanding the source of your traffic allows you to customize the user experience based on the platform they came from. For instance, customers coming from Facebook might respond better to different promotional offers or messaging than those from Google.

Conversion Tracking and ROI Analysis: When your system automatically tags each reservation with the source channel, it simplifies tracking conversions from different marketing campaigns. This data is vital for calculating the return on investment (ROI) of your marketing efforts, helping you to determine which campaigns are most effective and deserve further investment.

Refining SEO and Content Strategies: Knowing that a significant number of reservations come from Google can indicate the effectiveness of your SEO strategies. It helps you understand the importance of maintaining a strong online presence and encourages ongoing SEO and content optimization.

Tracking Conversion Sources

To accurately identify the origins of your reservations, we've developed a series of special links. You can use these when promoting your website on various social media platforms.

These links are easily accessible in the settings menu.

If you wish to monitor reservations coming from a specific landing page or any other promotional page, you have the option to create custom links tailored for these purposes.

To keep track of where your reservations are originating from, you can activate a 'Source' column in the bookings list. This feature helps in understanding the effectiveness of your marketing channels and campaigns.
