Need Help with Lower Views, Bookings, and Listing Visibility

Hi everyone,  

 

I’m reaching out to ask for some advice regarding my Airbnb listing. I’ve noticed that sometimes my listing doesn’t appear in searches, even though I’ve consistently received 5-star reviews and had happy guests. My response time is quick, and I update my listing prices and titles daily. Despite this, I can’t seem to find my listing when I search the area for dates I know are available. I’ve also noticed that the views on my listing have been decreasing.  

 

Here is my listing:

 

https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/1258229117215913639?viralityEntryPoint=1&s=76

 

Does anyone have any insight or tips on why this might be happening? I’d greatly appreciate any advice!  

 

Thank you in advance!  

 

Best,  

Kenny

Hello @Kenny312 

 

If I may suggest something, I would remove that first cover photo that is a summary of your top 5 pictures and just pick one.  Even going onto your listing from my computer that cover photo is really small so with someone using a phone it will be even less readable.  

 

Every time we change something to our listing, the algorithm picks up on the activity and this works in our favour.

 

Another little thing is that there seems to be a lot of information for guests to read with the danger that the longer we make our description, the less guests read them! We all have a different way of describing our listings and I like to make a list form so that guests see at a glance what they're being offered but this is very much a personal preference but something I picked up on the countless youtube videos I watched when I first started out.  As time has gone by, I've made it shorter rather than longer.  The only thing that has got longer are my house rules😂 you learn with experience!

 

All the best
Joëlle

Hi @Marie8425 , Thank you for the tip! I’ll definitely take a closer look at the Airbnb Insights Tool to track the impact of changes more effectively. You’re absolutely right, views and conversions tell two very different stories. Understanding whether the issue lies with low visibility or a lack of conversion after views will help me focus on the right solutions. I appreciate your advice and will keep monitoring!
