Okay a lot of Hosts do that successfully but you do have to coordinate to your and a Guests benefit.
For photos of your listing, have this thought in mind. Potential Guests don't know your property. Everyone looks for photos to give them a visual walk through of what they are renting. You want to show a sleeping area that looks like comfortable use. I also suggest highlight clothing storage, cooking area, an eating area bathroom laundry area and people want to easily see that the max guest count is accommodated Limited dates do effect your Airbnb Search Display because lower traffic numbers.
Update your listing regularly. Any type of change where you click "Save" changes "Date Modified" The Airbnb Search Computer uses that field to judge if the Host is active or nonactive. You want to always be an active Host.
Try and see if any of the dates it will be available, tie into an event or something that might bring a family to your area. Create a Guidebook to tie your listing to something maybe more popular. Your listing has multiple pages on the platform speak to highlights.
The Description should be a written description of your property tell the Guest what they are buying. Then highlights you know but we don't. Tell potential Guests everything good.
Once you have 3 reviews Airbnb will let you offer an Airbnb Custom Discount. A 20% discount on your specific days Airbnb will market for traffic for those days.
Airbnb Instabook is another tool that when turned on the Airbnb Search gives you a boost in display his too can be turned on and off Notification days is decided by the Host depending on their normal market.
