plan on visting in march,, is it possible to get B+B or hotel on the day if i decide to stay overnight
You should be able to, given that March is not high season.....but no-one can tell you for definite.
You'd obviously need to sort it out well before the last ferry left.
How do you intend to get around the island? Will you have a car? If so, that will give you far more flexibility.
The Gozo tourist information office in Victoria may be a good place to start:
Victoria
Tigrija Palazz, Level 1
Republic Street,
Tel: ( 356) 21561419
or you could simply make notes of the hotels etc which interest you and phone them when you are on the island. Listings here:

Gozo does start to liven up during March. If you intend visiting around 19th March then perhaps you might have to try harder at finding accommodation. The 19th (Friday) is the feast of St Joseph and a lot of Maltese people will take the opportunity of the long weekend to hop over to Gozo to stay a couple of nights. Enjoy your visit!
While in Malta or Gozo, why not try to pick up some of their words? Well, good luck. The Maltese language is pretty awkward. It is a Semitic language (somehow related to Arab and Hebrew), they have some strange letters (H's and G's with lines and dots added) and a peculiar pronounciation. But reading signs and watching local TV is fun. Try to say 'qaghaq'......
Visit the museum of history of the island 'Heritage of Malta'. Moving from one hall to another you'll be involved in a sort of performance. The manner of presentation of historic events is really unusual.
Gozo is a perfect place to spend only one day or an entire holiday. A third of the size of Malta, Gozo is 14 km / 9 miles long and 6 km / 4 miles wide. There´s so much to discover and everything is still near to reach by foot, bike or car.
Just like in Malta, I was mostly impressed by those Megalithic temples.
Weird pre-historic buildings (3600-3000 b.C.), survive to prove their remote function, hinting to the religious preoccupation that the early Maltese inhabitants were concerned with.
Gozo Island is simply beautiful. Its magical cliffs are a sight to behold. When you fly in the helicopter from Luqa airport on Malta you travel down the sides of these fabulous islands. It is an experience not to be missed. It takes only about 15 minutes The cliffs of Xlendi (Gozo)

Q: Restaurant Discount Cards "Hi ... Virtual tourists Does anyone issue DISCOUNT CARDS for Gozo restaurants ?"
A: "If you google 'malta discount cards' you'll find a couple. But I am always very dubious about such things. Eating well in Malta is not expensive (except at those..."
