      Good Morning Mozzers,

      I currently have a client who is trying to place ads on Google Hotel Finder. I've recently conducted a great deal of research on this topic, but I'm still struggling to find anything definitive in terms of creating ads for the property I represent.

      Likewise, I've noticed that my client's property is ranking very poorly for a number of keyword terms when you click "more places" on the search results page.

      In short, I need to achieve two items (AND FAST...):

      1. being able to create ads for the property on Google Hotel Finder, and
      2. figuring out how to get the property to rank more highly in the "more places" section of the search results page.

      Quite frankly, we are willing to do any and all things necessary at this point to expedite the process. Any and all insight/recommendations would be great!

      Thank you all so much for reading, I look forward to hearing your comments!

        Hey J.P.I hope you'll get lots of community feedback on this one. I don't have any hands-on experience with the business side of Hotel Finder, but here are some suggestions:

        1. Read this: http://adwords.blogspot.com/2015/09/google-hotel-ads-makes-it-easier-for.html

        2. And this: http://insideout.com/blog/2015/08/30/google-hotel-finder-changes-bed-breakfast-inns/

        3. And if you are willing to 'do anything,' consider talking to these folks: http://acorn-is.com/. They are known in the Local industry for specializing in the hospitality arena, and though I don't have any personal experience with them, I have heard good things about their work and expertise from numerous sources. The name I associate with that business is Lisa Kolb, and she's the one I'd be talking to in your situation.

        Hope this helps!
