Guidebook - recommended business website incorrect

Guidebook - recommended business website incorrect

How to change a website for a Airbnb recommended local business. We own this business and want to be able to add our correct address. At the moment the Airbnb page is showing the google business site, which we have recently unpublished, we added our correct website address to google business about a month ago.

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

Sorry I don't understand the question? @Vanya-And-Edward0 

@Vanya-And-Edward0  I notice a lot of the guidebook entries are outdated. Looks like the details for each entry are locked in place at the time a host inputs the business name. Details are harvested directly from Google but they're not dynamic and won't update.

 

It might be worth reporting to Airbnb, if you were finding that the guidebooks were genuinely driving customers to your business. If the number you see in "___ locals recommend" is, say, over 1000, this might not be a total waste of time. But Airbnb has all but abandoned the Host Guidebook feature, burying it so obscurely in a listing that very few guests even notice it's there. 

 

Is it not possible to set the old URL to redirect to the new one?

@Anonymous Thanks Andrew, really appreciate your reply. I'm not sure if we are getting much traffic via the guidebook, but was trying to cover all bases. What a shame Airbnb isn't interested in the guidebook feature, it is so useful for guests.

 

Airbnb are directing people to the Google Business site, I'm having a whole world of pain with trying to take that down also, but that's another story......!! 🙂
