Vacation Rentals Sites : Are they profitable ?

I am currently writing an article for Compare Owner Holiday Rentals about the vacation rentals business. What I am exploring is whether or not running a site it profitable and how the industry might evolve. There are so many vacation rentals sites out there, with new ones being formed almost on a weekly basis, it's hard to believe they can all make money.

I would be interested in anyone's views on the topic : feel free to post your comments here.

Regards,

Kevin

I think the smaller sites will only survive if they can find some unique way of differentiating themselves

As you pointed out in your article, owners want bookings and to keep them at a site it must perform unless it's a free site.

The dithering array of vacation home sites is making vacationers nutty with choices. It's getting confusing.
