The evaluation pages and the ‘live’ pages are the same. 

You don't need to make any changes to the evaluation pages - you simply keep using the system. 

When you're ready, you can link to the calendar from other websites - such as Facebook or a community website.

We'll get in touch with you towards the end of the sixty-day evaluation period.

You can subscribe by Direct Debit, BACS, card or cheque.

You don't have to go live when you subscribe. You can continue using the system behind the scenes and go live when  you're ready.

How will people find the booking pages?

If you have a website for your venue, you can just embed our calendar.

However, you don't need to have a website! Google (and other search engines) will be able to find the booking pages and you'll appear in their search results.

For Google to find the pages, you need have links to the page from other sites. 

• A community site (e.g. Parish Council) is a good start. You need to tell the administrator of the site the URL (address) of your online calendar. It probably looks like this: https://hallbookingonline.com/myvenue
• If your venue has a Facebook page, you could add a post telling people about the new booking pages.
• Have you checked the results when you type in your venue's name into Google? If you're on a PC/Mac, you should see a column on the right with information about your venue. If it says ‘Add missing website’ or similar, it means Google doesn't know the website address. Look for a link to add missing information. If there's a map pointing to the wrong location, you can fix that too.
• A poster with a QR code at your venue. You can make QR codes for free. Just head to your main public page using the Chrome browser. Right-click and choose ‘Create QR code for this page’.
• Finally, we can submit the page to Google. Get in touch if you'd like us to do that.

Remember that changes aren't instant. It can take a few weeks for your pages to appear in the search engine results page. 

Be very wary of anyone contacting you who suggests that they can move you instantly to the top of the search pages!

If you have any questions about going live, please don't hesitate to get in touch with us.
