Once your PMS is connected and your properties are prepared, Wander creates the first version of your direct booking website.

If you already have a website, Wander uses your existing site as the starting point for your WanderOS site, including your branding and website content. If you do not have an existing website, your Launch Specialist will work with you to collect the information needed to create your site.

Before launch, review your new site, submit any necessary revisions, and make sure the guest experience is ready to go live.

If you have an existing website, Wander automatically imports your site to create the first version of your WanderOS website.

This gives Wander a starting point for your:

Your imported site is a starting point. Review the new version carefully to make sure the content, design, navigation, and guest experience work as expected in WanderOS.

If you do not have an existing website, your Launch Specialist will contact you to learn more about your business and website goals and collect the content needed for your build.

When your first version is ready, your Launch Specialist will send it to you for review.

Review the site from the perspective of a guest discovering your business and deciding whether to book.

Check the following areas:

Confirm that your logo, brand colors, photography, and overall site presentation represent your business correctly.

Review your homepage and other important pages for accurate:

Check for outdated content carried over from your previous website and identify anything that should not appear on the new site.

Use your site's navigation as a guest would.

Confirm that:

If you need additional pages, blogs, or local guides, these can also be managed through WanderOS.

Review a sample of your property pages from the guest-facing website.

Check that the page layout, photos, descriptions, amenities, and other visible property information appear as expected.

If the underlying property information is incorrect, make the change in the system responsible for that information. Operational property information such as availability, rates, fees, and taxes should generally be corrected in your PMS rather than through the website editor.

Confirm that the contact information shown to guests is correct.

Review any phone numbers, email addresses, social links, and other ways guests can contact or learn more about your business.

Review the filters available to guests and make sure they are useful for your portfolio.

Prioritize amenities and attributes that help guests meaningfully narrow their search rather than displaying unnecessary filters.

Review important page titles, descriptions, URLs, and other available page information, particularly if WanderOS is replacing an existing website.

Where possible, preserve useful existing URLs and identify important pages that should continue to be accessible after launch.

Review your site on both desktop and mobile.

Check important pages, navigation, images, property pages, and the path guests will use to search for a stay.
