Ready for 2026? Check these 10 essentials for a strong start with your (web)app
Good preparation brings peace of mind. Your app is the central point for guests, so a few smart checks make a big difference. Below are ten quick actions you can run through right away. Simple. Practical. And designed to help you start the new year smoothly.
1. Update your content
Check all core pages. Opening hours, house rules, local tips. Small updates build trust.
2. Test your QR codes
Scan them on-site and make sure each one links to the right page. It prevents arrival-day questions. Need a combined QR code for both Android and iOs devices. Use onelink.to.
3. Plan your push notifications
Create a schedule for the first quarter or at least January. Think about arrival tips, fun activities or winter inspiration. Pre-plan messages like: “There’s a great market in the village today, worth a visit!”
4. Refresh your photos
New images of your accommodation and surroundings improve the experience. Real photos with people always work well.
5. Check your external links
Restaurants, activities, walking routes. Make sure everything still works. This avoids guest frustration.
6. Update your contact details
Is the service number correct. Is WhatsApp active. Clear and updated contact options reduce workload in busy weeks. Look at what works but also what could work smarter for both you and your guests.
7. Review your packages
A seasonal advantage or tip can make your offer more appealing and easier to find.
8. Clean up your FAQ
Short, clear answers save time. Place the most common questions at the top. You can make these items sticky.
9. Check your automated messages
Make sure your standard emails or messages are correct. Think of confirmations, instructions or arrival information. Small tweaks prevent confusion at the start of the season.
10. Prepare a welcome message
Start the year warmly. A short message feels personal and inviting. A video or personal photo works even better.
