My listings are not getting any attention. What am I doing wrong?

I think you could benefit from better photos! Also, the main photo should be of the inside and the best part of the house to get attention
A couple of the pictures shows the bathtub, sink and toilet with paint all over it. Doesn't look inviting to me. Some nice colorful decor would help as well. It looks pretty empty besides the very basic necessities.
Hello Nyarai1,
You have a beautiful calm and cowsy getaway just from what I've seen . Looks Peace ful
You asked for some support to find out why ?
I would answer it by saying:
Is the area you live in attracting your kind of intended guests?
Are there other hosts in the area getting more business?
Otherwise if all factors tick then it can only be the bathroom that has some kind of art that looks ashy just try making the entire bathroom super white like the others .
I personally think that there chances such a tiny thing could be a factor from what I've seen in the pictures .
Hope this helped but I would love to be lucky enough to visit this gem.
All the best .
Marvin .
Yo cambiaría la foto principal por la 9 la de la cocina. La foto principal parece un caseta de jardín
Please check the Airbnb in the area see what price they have, your price might be high and they choose to reserve the cheapest. Also, I don’t know more about Zimbabwe but it’s hard to travel with 8 people, some are couples when need one room to stay; but during weekends you should have people who attend weddings in your area.
If your Airbnb listings are not being viewed as much as you'd like, there are several best practices you can follow to boost visibility and attract more potential guests:
1. Optimize Your Listing Title and Description
2. Use High-Quality Photos
3. Set Competitive Pricing
4. Utilize Keywords in Your Listing
5. Offer Competitive Amenities and Extras
6. Encourage Positive Reviews
7. Promote Your Listing on Social Media
8. Update Your Calendar Regularly
9. Optimize Your Profile and Improve Response Rate
10. Use Airbnb’s Tools and Promotions
Hi Nyarai,
I agree with the other hosts—the pictures tell the story. Some of your photos appear dark; lightening them up will improve the overall aesthetics. Also, I noticed that some bedrooms are more visually appealing than others. Consider placing the best ones at the beginning. The first photo should be your strongest, showing the beauty of your Airbnb.A couple of the bedroom photos look plain. With the pretty greenery outside, you might want to incorporate some of that indoors—perhaps adding a few plants or even a decorative throw across the bed. What makes your listing perfect for families? Post pics highlighting such--a nearby trail, games, or a nice family dining area. I think these details will make your place stand out.
