Hi Shelly75,
Great question — making sure your listing shows up in search is a mix of settings and presentation. Here are a few things that help your listing populate more consistently:
1. Double-check your availability calendar
If all dates are blocked (even accidentally), your place won’t appear in search.
2. Keep your pricing competitive
New or quiet listings get more visibility when the price matches similar homes in the area.
3. Turn on Instant Book (if comfortable)
Airbnb promotes listings that guests can book quickly.
4. Make sure all sections of your listing are complete
Full description, amenities, house rules, and high-quality photos help you rank higher.
5. Refresh one or two photos every now and then
Small updates signal to Airbnb that your listing is active.
Design tips for a large home:
• Create clear zones (living, working, relaxing) so the space feels organized
• Use warm lighting to make big rooms feel cozy
• Add a statement piece in each main area — it photographs beautifully
• Keep colors neutral, then add personality with pillows, rugs, or art
• Make sure your photos show the flow of the home from room to room
Large homes perform really well when guests can instantly imagine how they’ll use the space.
You’re already asking the right questions — with a few tweaks, your listing will get seen more often. 🌟
