What is metasearch?

Metasearch websites consolidate rates from multiple booking channels, such as hotel websites, wholesalers, and OTAs. The most well-known metasearch websites include Trivago, Kayak, Skyscanner, Tripadvisor, and of course, Google Hotel Ads.

How is metasearch different from other advertising types, like Search Engine Marketing (SEM), display, and social?

Metasearch is different because results are prompted by the user entering dates for their trip. It’s also the only channel that uses live rates with a path to purchase that leads directly to the hotel website.
