A new pop-up blog for host website frontpage

I would like Airbnb to create a pop-up blog space for hosts to post activities, things of interest happening at properties or nearby: fishing, hiking, skiing, covid rules, festivals, restaurants, farmers markets, breweries, distilleries and wineries.  Cycling, canoeing, kayaking, snowmobiling, cross country skiing.  Edible food in season - my home has wild ramps right now (wild garlic).  I think guests would be blocked from posting to avoid few troublemakers.  Just give more life and ideas for people considering a stay.

I use the visitor guide function on my listing for that @David1054 

 

any reason that doesn't work for you ?

I have an Airbnb guide and I find most guests don't open it.  My concept is to bring hosts into guest experience in choosing property where guests are looking - front page.  Makes front page bit fresh too.  Also looking at a guide may take more time for guests to find any current things of interest.  Think of it as a Twitter pop up within the front page for communicating prominently what is happening and without the risk of potential guests posting rude things..

Sorry I'm still struggling to understand the concept @David1054 

 

I send my guests a link to my guide on booking and quite a few mention content from it and some arrive with printed copies .

@David1054  I'm also bamboozled at what you are suggesting. What main page? The Airbnb main page? Your individual listing in search?
