There are two ways to add booking to your existing website. Both run on your domain, which means your Meta pixel, Google Tag Manager, and analytics keep working.
Option 1: Simple embed snippet (recommended)
A single line of HTML that opens the booking flow as an overlay on your existing page. Drop it anywhere. Header, hero, footer, or in-page.
- Settings → Embed.
- Copy the snippet:
<a href="https://book.yourvenue.com" data-artistry-host>Book now</a> - Paste anywhere in your website's HTML.
- Optional: style it with CSS like any other button on your site.
When a guest clicks "Book now," the booking flow opens in an overlay on top of your existing page. The pixel and Google tag fire on your domain (because the overlay's iframe URL is also yours). Conversion tracking stays intact.
Option 2: Direct link
If you don't want an overlay, just link directly to your booking page:
https://book.yourvenue.com
The full page loads on your subdomain. Same pixel firing, same tracking. The difference is the visual transition (full page vs overlay).
Custom domain (Founders 100+)
By default, your booking page is book.yourvenue.com (we provision the subdomain when you sign up). If you'd rather use a custom domain, like reserve.yourwinery.com instead. Settings → Domains → Add custom domain.
You add a CNAME at your DNS provider pointing to us. We provision the SSL cert. Done in 5 minutes once DNS propagates.
Adding it to your Google Business Profile
GBP has a built-in "Book" button on your business listing. To wire it to ArtistryHost:
- Open your GBP listing → Edit → Add a booking link.
- Paste your
book.yourvenue.comURL. - Save.
Guests who find you on Google Maps or in a "near me" search can now book without leaving Google. We've seen this convert at meaningfully higher rates than guests who land on the website first (covered in the GBP post).
Why "on your domain" matters
A few booking platforms run the booking flow on their own subdomain (secure.bookeo.com/yourstudio). When a guest gets there, your Meta pixel doesn't fire. They're not on your site anymore. Conversion attribution breaks.
We run on your subdomain specifically because broken attribution costs operators $400–$700/month in misallocated ad spend (covered in the pixel post). The architectural choice is the same reason "your pixel, your data" is one of our listed features.
If your website is on Squarespace, Wix, or Shopify
All three support custom HTML embeds in their builders. The exact spot varies by template, but it's typically:
- Squarespace: Edit page → Add block → Embed/Code block → paste the snippet
- Wix: Add → Embed Code → HTML/iframe → paste
- Shopify: Online Store → Theme → Edit code → add the snippet to the section you want
