The image on the home page of pureholidayhomes.com caught my attention today. I was looking for the sort of evocative shot that would stop a potential renter in their tracks and cause them to hang about for a bit. The photo did just that for me.
When you are designing your own vacation rental web site it’s worth spending a lot of time getting this right. These are the sort of images that will cause your site visitors to pause and imagine themselves right there in the photographs, or pull them in to look further. I think I like this so much because it includes people, and it feels real – not a staged photo. The one I’ve used on this post is similar.
What photos do you use to draw your visitors in? How evocative are they? Send me the links so I can share them.

Thank you for your kind comments about our home page image. Having spent a lot of time in Muskoka and the Laurentians (where this was taken) there is nothing more evocative or contrasting with the day to day urban life than a glass of wine and the great outdoors.
Great photo, yes it is very hard to find that right photo that will capture someones attention, but is also attractive to all sorts of people looking for different things
