VEHICALL.COM: THE INCOMPARABLE COMPARATOR OF RENTAL ADS

VEHICALL makes your life easier thanks to its intensive use of the new "rental ad geolocation" concept. Spending a few minutes reading this page will save you hours of Internet search with its revolutionary possibilities, a first at the present time !

This site is a teletoposite (from the Greek words tele=distance and topos=place). It allows the computation of the distance of any advertized goods, products or services from any point clicked on the map. The coordinate precision reachs +/- 8 meters on the whole Earth !

VEHICALL is also a very fast search engine directory: up to 270,000 rental ads are analysed per second. Thanks to our data base format and our proprietary algorithms, a single 1 GB USB key can store more than 17 millions rental ads.

Each ad is recorded as numerical data, and because numbers are universal, there is no need for any translation - every ad can be read and understood everywhere, whatever the language. Only our search page and the related explanations must be available in the language of the Net surfers. Spanish, Italian and German are planned for the near future...

For the geolocation, in order to guarantee a complete geographical and linguistic universality, no name of area, locality or street, no number of department or postal code is and does not have to be used on VEHICALL. Click only on the large central map or the [NEXT] button, never elsewhere ! So no more typing or spelling problems with (foreign) names !

This site was created for a 800x600 resolution or more. With a low resolution, maximize your Web navigator window to see more data by clicking the F11 key (full screen function).

VEHICALL is deliberately designed without graphic gadgets to ensure it remains simple, fast and accessible from anywhere in the world, whatever the hardware, the software or the connection speed employed. The retro-look fashion, the retro-look furnitures, the retro-look radios already exist: why would not there be also retro-look Web sites offering today technological performances and features ?

Please support us: install the VEHICALL's banner on your Web site/blog/page, tell your friends about us, become a sponsor !


FIND YOUR NEXT RENTAL IN LESS THAN 3 MINUTES

Click the [Find your next rental in less than 3 minutes] button in the main menu. Choose the country, island or territory. Click [NEXT] to go to the geolocation page. Click the chosen location on the map, more and more precisely, up to the desired level of details. Click [NEXT] to go to the search page. Modify any search criterion and click [>] to get the updated results.

Click on a beach, a tourist attraction, the middle of a lake or a mountain top to find and compare all closest rentals.

Borders are not longer a barrier: for example, after having chosen "France" as a place, you can click Brussels on the map to find and compare all rentals located in France which are the closest ones from Brussels.

In the search page, hold the cursor on a criterion or any underlined text to get its description.

To refine the results, modify one or more search criteria and click again [>].

The resulting rental ads are displayed in a list, each one on a single line, with the most recent ads at the top. So it is very practical to spot all the new rentals.

[Distance] 0,05 mile to 9999 miles: maximum distance from the clicked point on the map to all the searched rentals. With the "9999" value, it is possible to carry out a search for a whole country, island or territory with a single click, whatever its size, e.g. even Russia !

[Unit] in "mi" (miles) or "km" (kilometers): unit for the distances. The interior and exterior areas will be displayed respectively in "square yards" or in "square meters" according to the unit selected here.

[First date], [Last date] +/- 2 years compared to the current date: rental period for all the searched rentals.

[Maximum price] from 0 to 999999999999: price limit not to be exceeded. Sometimes the price for a rental with more beds is lower...

[Currency] 147 choices: currency to be used among the 147 available for the displayed prices. The exchange rate is updated automatically using the previous day closing rate at NYSE (New York Stock exchange).

[Places] from 1 to 999: minimum number of adult beds for all the searched rentals.

[Rental type + Minimal imposed rental duration]: criterion combining the rental type and the minimum duration imposed by the owner for the rental. Each displayed combination means that there is at least one corresponding rental in the selected country, island or territory.

[Shared rental], [Urban zone], [On mountain], [Near a lake], [Near a sea], [Furnished], [With pool], [With parking]: selection criteria for the searched rentals. Example with the [On mountain] criterion: search all the rentals on mountain with "Yes", search only in plain with "No", search on mountain and in plain with "Indifferent". After a modification of any criterion, all the matching rentals are immediately listed by a single click on [>].

For each rental found, the GPS coordinates in decimal degrees of latitude and longitude are displayed. Clicking on them displays a zoomable map to show precisely, by a red circle, where the rental is located.

Clicking on the calculated distance of any listed rental will sort all the sponsors by increasing distance from it.

Clicking on the other data of any found rental (e.g. first and last rental dates, total price, number of beds, interior and exterior areas, number of rooms) displays the Web site, blog or page of the owner or, if none exists, an email address for the contact.

60 days of free publication will be offered if the VEHICALL's banner is present on your Web site or blog or page...

Example: advertizing tariffs in USD for the USA (January 24th, 2007 currency rate)

   If the VEHICALL's banner is present:                                   If the VEHICALL's banner is absent:
  90 days =  16.80 (0.19 USD/day)               90 days =  50.39 (0.56 USD/day)
 180 days =  60.54 (0.34 USD/day)              180 days =  90.81 (0.50 USD/day)
 365 days = 119.16 (0.33 USD/day)              365 days = 142.60 (0.39 USD/day)
 500 days = 135.36 (0.27 USD/day)              500 days = 153.82 (0.31 USD/day)

Your advertizing period (and related cost) can be chosen freely, with one-day accuracy, from 90 to 500 days !

Who are the sponsors ? They are innumerable. In fact all suppliers of services or goods: shops, retailers, hotels, restaurants, real estate agencies, event or regional festival organizers, tourist offices, entertainment parks, leisure attractions and facilities, night clubs, pubs, museums, etc. And also rental owners wishing to highlight their offers ! Very often, just ONE SINGLE CUSTOMER, catched by your geolocalized publicity, will cover the monthly cost of it...
