Listing on ABNB pages

[Judeline1]

Hi all

My property is at the bottom of the search results - after those that have no or fewer stars than my property.  Any idea why this is or what I can do about getting it higher up the page?

thank you

@Judeline1 , the page looks fine, so you might try jiggling the account - like swapping photos or adjusting the commentary.  I suspect the system reacts to hosts who are actively on the move.. just a thought. 

Good luck with it.  Cheers Charles.

Thank you for the tip - will give it a go

@Judeline1 the biggest thing to move up the search rankings seems to be bookings. Bit of a catch 22 I am afraid!

Also Instant Book switched on seems to help a lot.

Basically if you follow all of Airbnb's request (Pets allowed, flexible cancellation policy etc) then you will be higher up the rankings - The 'cost' of these is too much for us however.

Ah - that's interesting as there are other properties that don't even have a star so how do they get ahead?  I thought top properties were 'star-based'

I'm with you on the cost of the other options

Thank you for your advice

@Judeline1 new listings also get a boost in the search ratings so that may explain why no-star properties are above you.
