ResNexus vs Acorn Internet Services (Acorn Marketing)

ResNexus can provide your business with a mobile-friendly, SEO-optimized, ADA-friendly website for only $80 per month and setup fees starting at $499. This includes hosting, security, initial design and a page that lists your top 3 attractions! Most website companies charge anywhere between $2,500 to $5,000+ to initially build your website. This service saves time and reduces the number of vendors that your business has to call and coordinate with.

Unlike ResNexus' upfront flat pricing found on our website, Acorn does not display base cost pricing for their website design services on their design landing page. Instead you must fill out a request form or call them.

With ResNexus Websites, we make sure your SEO is great from day one. Before your website goes live, a ResNexus SEO expert double checks the SEO for your website. In addition, ResNexus offers advanced digital relationship marketing services such as PPC, content creation, and more at a reasonable and affordable price.

Acorn states that there are lots of daily, weekly, and monthly SEO factors that you must do or your ranking will suffer dramatically. Acorn does this so that your business will pay monthly marketing fees for simple SEO activities. The reality is that unless your business is in a dense and highly competitive geographic area, most bed and breakfast companies can easily maintain and improve their own high ranking SEO with minimal effort.

What’s the difference? Google Hotel Ads or Google Travel acts as an OTA for your business, with commission-free direct bookings when travelers search for accommodations. Google Ads allow you to advertise your property directly to consumers. ResNexus integrates with both, and gives you the power to manage them from within your ResNexus login.

Acorn can help your business setup Google Ads within your Google business account. Acorn is not able to have your business show up on Google Travel independent of using a Google Integration Partner such a ResNexus.

ResNexus offers more than just websites. ResNexus is an all-in-one seamless software solution. That means your business gets a professionally-designed, ADA-compliant website, beautiful booking engine, robust property management, automatic email marketing, dynamic pricing, credit card processing, direct connections to marketing channels (Booking.com, Expedia, Airbnb), point of sale, and much more! ResNexus provides great value paired with great customer support!

To take online reservations and manage your property, you need additional software that Acorn does not provide. Depending on your service plan Acorn may charge to do email marketing, yield management, and more. All these additional fees, services, and support calls can really add up when you have to purchase them separately.

ResNexus has its own easy-to-use and intuitive website builder. Once the initial design is finished, you have control over your website; you're free to make picture and text changes whenever you want. Just one more way you SAVE TIME and MONEY with ResNexus.

Acorn is not a software company and does not produce the web builder they use for their websites nor develop the booking software they promote. Like ResNexus, Acorn does give you access to change text and update pictures on your own in Wordpress.
