Listing issues

I have been a host for over 3 years - super host status, guest favorite with 5* average review.  It appears my views have increased substantially but have never gone this long without a booking (over 2 months).  When I signed in as a traveler I discovered my listing appears on page 10 of all listings with over 50 properties in other towns appearing before mine.  Consequently by the time my listing appears.   I'm ready to give up with airbnb as I don't understand why my listing appears so far in the listings and realize I will never achieve super host again with my lack of reservations.  Thanks and I would appreciate any advise you may have.

@Sandy1018 from what I have seen success breeds success. So you need strong bookings to get to the top of the search listings. Of course you can't get bookings if not near the top so its a catch 22.

My advice is to edit the description, swap the photos around and comply with as many of the desired settings as you can swallow. So switch on instant book and move to a flexible cancellation policy. I think this will help you rise up the search placement.
