By analyzing the key digital touchpoints that influence today’s traveler journey, HDS Index provides a clear, data-driven view of your property’s digital sales performance — and identifies where opportunities are being lost.
Today, travelers discover, evaluate and book properties across an increasingly complex digital ecosystem. Search engines, AI models, online travel agencies, social platforms, reviews and direct channels all play a role in influencing booking decisions.
The HDS Index measures your performance across five strategic areas:
How effectively do your website and digital marketing strategy convert demand into direct bookings? We analyze your digital presence to understand if your owned platforms and directly managed actions are correctly set to capture and convert qualified travel demand.
Are AI models and search engines recommending your property? The way travelers discover hotels is changing. HDS Index evaluates your ability to appear and be considered across traditional search engines and emerging AI-driven discovery platforms.
Are your digital distribution channels working in your favor? Your presence across 3rd-party platforms directly impacts visibility, profitability and demand generation. HDS Index assesses how efficiently your property manages its digital distribution on platforms and methods which are not directly owned.
Are your social channels contributing to demand generation? Social platforms influence inspiration, trust and purchase decisions. HDS Index measures whether your social presence and digital engagement support your commercial objectives.
Does your digital reputation support conversion? Reviews and online reputation strongly influence booking decisions. HDS Index evaluates how effectively your property manages one of the most important conversion drivers.
The HDS Index transforms more than 80 digital performance indicators into a single 0–100 score that provides an immediate benchmark of your property’s digital sales effectiveness.
