Site web Airbnb

[Lee277]

I have two questions
1. will Air bnb be upgrading the website to be more user friendly ?
2. Why did they introduce url ?

is it because Air bnb has too many listings
Since I became a super host I am not getting the bookings as i did
I have added two listings to choose one is a two bedroom and the other is a three bedroom
it's a choice but no bookings
url
I'll be getting a Airbnb professional photographer to take more pictures
oh I lowered my three bedroom per night but still no bookings
and getting my three bedroom filmed to be added in
on u tube then will join link in
but it is a lot of work to try and get bookings yet it was not this way when i was just a host
why is that
My price is low my home is in a great location
it just dose not make sense
and why are we not able to update our 20/20 business license
renewal on our listing?
I'm doing a lot but I'm not seeing results
do we have to wait till the plus listings to be booked first?
There are a lot of listings on Airbnb that don't qualify to do it in Vancouver It's really hard to be notice as a super host and  it on us to advertise is it because you only promote Plus and host listings for it's up to us to get our own bookings and I think the super host get overlooked for we are last pickings to be seen and it may be that guest go to other sites because of this  UNFORTUNATELY AIR BNB NEEDS TO UPGRADE THEIR WEBSITE BACK TO WHAT IT ONCE WAS TWO YEARS AGO. IT IS NO LONGER AN EASY WEBSITE TO NAVIGATE THROUGH. THEY SOULD HAVE FOUR CATAGORIES TO CHOOSE FROM SO GUEST CAN book the TYPE OF HOME they would like to stay in rather than feel they will have to GO TO ANOTHER SITE TO FIND THE TYPE OF HOME THEY ARE LOOKING FOR ,AND THIS IS THE REASON WHY I DON'T GET THE BOOKINGS  for super host are now limited in the searches . MY STRONG SUGESSTION TO AIRBNB IS THERE WOULD BE FOUR RECTANGLES ON A PAGE TO CLICK ON ​
1. PLUS (where they can view all the listings that offer a generic look) ​
2. SUPER HOST (where guest can view all of the homes that offer a character feel)​
3. HOST (which offer both generic and character homes to view) ​
4.SUPER LUX homes to view. ​
If the web site was set up in this way then guest would not feel that all Air bnb listings have only the generic homes to stay in for the PLUS HOMES ARE PROMOTED MAINLY and repetitiously through all of the searches which a potential guest may feel they've seen enough and move onto another site to find what they desire to stay in else where for they don't see  Air bnb has this inventory to offer for the super host listings are not so visible anymore in the searches .This is why if you had the four rectangle boxes which has the type of listings ​
1. PLUS (stale look) 2. SUPER HOST(character) 3. HOST (both)  4. SUPER LUX (expensive) for each of these categories will display to a potential guest ​what they are looking for effortlessly rather than give up on Airbnb searches and move onto another site in order to find a Super Host style of home elsewhere
Thanks Super Host Lee 🙂

Hello Super Host Lee,

You’ve raised some excellent points about Airbnb's current search and booking system. It’s understandable how these changes could be impacting your visibility and bookings as a Super Host. Here are some insights to help address your concerns:

1. Website Upgrades & User Experience: Airbnb does occasionally update its platform to enhance the user experience, but these updates can sometimes prioritize newer features like the Plus program or "experiences," which may cause standard listings to appear less frequently in search results. This prioritization could be impacting Super Hosts like yourself who are seeking more visibility. While we don’t have confirmation on future updates to Airbnb's search functionality, sharing your feedback directly with Airbnb support might help in suggesting improvements like category filters.

2. Impact of the Plus Program on Super Hosts: The promotion of Plus listings does sometimes lead to other high-quality listings getting less exposure. It could help if Airbnb separated listings by categories, as you suggested, which would make it easier for potential guests to locate listings that offer different styles and experiences. Many hosts have voiced similar concerns about the need for a clearer differentiation between Plus, Super Host, and regular listings.

3. Strategies for Improving Visibility: Since you’re already taking many effective steps—such as hiring a professional photographer and using external platforms like YouTube—consider additional promotions on social media or partnering with local tourism sites to further boost visibility. Also, refreshing your listing periodically (updating descriptions, photos, and tags) can sometimes improve search placement within Airbnb’s algorithm.

4. Updating Business License: As for updating your business license, Airbnb’s account settings generally allow for document uploads or updates in the “Account” or “Listing” sections. If you’re unable to locate this option, contacting Airbnb support might be the quickest way to resolve it.

Your idea to categorize listings into four distinct types (Plus, Super Host, Host, and Super Lux) is a great suggestion and could make the platform easier for guests to navigate while ensuring more exposure for different types of listings. Sharing this directly through Airbnb’s feedback channels or community forums might amplify this idea, especially if other hosts share similar sentiments.

Thank you for sharing your insights, and best of luck with your listing!
