What is a Meta Search Website or Engine?
The Metasearch Website or Engine is a search engine that combines the results of various search engines into one and gives one result. It can also be stated as an online information retrieval tool.
The Metasearch Website or Engine was developed because individual search engines were prone to spam due to people trying to raise their website ranks online. The Search engine visits several websites and creates a database of these sites. This is also known as indexing. Any search engine answers several queries every second.
The metasearch websites or engines run the queries on most other search engines and in turn reflect the result in the form of the summarization of such sites.

How do Metasearch Websites work?
Metasearch websites allow consumers to search for accommodation across several sites by consolidating the results in a comparative format.
For example, users can sort search results by price, simplifying their buying decision. If one hotel has the lowest price on Expedia for the dates and price range but another hotel has a lower price on Booking.com for the same search criteria, the user can easily see and pick their favorite.
Where do Metasearch sites get their data? Metasearch sites have agreements with OTAs granting them access to their APIs and are able to download and aggregate hotel data.
You can (and should!) claim your hotel profile on a Metasearch site, which allows you to customize your images, descriptions, features, etc. If you’re working with a booking engine provider who offers direct connections to Metasearch channels, work with them to create a direct link to your own website. If you don’t have this direct connection, Metasearch channels can still give you bookings – but they’ll come through OTAs, and you’ll be paying OTA commission rates on them.
Metasearch gives independent hotels the opportunity to position themselves on a level playing field with the OTAs, even without the marketing might of a large chain. They have a chance to shift a share of their business from the OTA’s to book directly on their own site.
If set up correctly and optimized on an ongoing basis, Metasearch channels with direct connections to your hotel’s own website can lead to bookings at a lower cost per acquisition than through OTAs. This allows the hotel to distribute to a wider audience while controlling the customer’s booking from an earlier stage.
