I'm going to BOOST your airBnB listing !

[Lilian20]

Hello everyone, 

Feel free to let me know your listing's URL in the comments below.

I'm going to boost it and give it a better ranking in airbnb search results. 

If you're already satisfied with your listing's performance in terms of visibility and bookings, this " Boost " will allow you to up your prices. 

* What am I going to do : 

1) I'm going to take a quick look at your pictures to make sure they look cool then I'm going to add your property to my airbnb favorites / wishlist https://www.airbnb.fr/wishlists/56557342 

2) I'm going to share it here : http://facebook.com/OneBigWeb  (2000 followers)

3) And here  : https://twitter.com/One_Big_Web (3000 followers)

 

* Why do I do all this ? 

I need your HELP - please share my listing https://www.airbnb.fr/rooms/12043937 on the web and add it to your favorites. 

* Why take part ? 

It's clearly a WIN-WIN since we all get better visibility in airbnb search results in our respective areas.

* Let's do it !

I'm going to boost your listing and you're going to boost mine.

@Helen3 , ten thumbs up! Isn't is disheartening how people don't read other posts, just jump in and believe some impossible promises, as if getting buried on someone else's wishlist would get them customers to travel half way across the globe just to stay at their listing??

Folks wake up - there are simply no views or "likes" for the supposedly "promoted" Airbnb listings on his Facebook page. And even if there were views there or on twitter, how is that going to get you customers??Just think about it for one minute before wasting your time on this. 

unfortunately, that link isn't just limited to this post here, it also shows up on many many other posts here in the forum. I don't see that as effective marketing, just as a  very annoying scheme to promote his webdesign business.

Peeps, just have a great listing and practice the best hospitality you have to offer - that is what  gets you customers.....

@Annette33  thanks for your comments.  i read everything. 

with respect to staying at an airbnb place, what i've noticed just with this small exercise is first, i never realised there were places at airnb i would actually like to stay.  i generally stay in hotels.  usually 5 star.  second, since i know i intend travelling and generally have an idea of what direction i'm headed, just tonight and just because i saw a listing from this thread, i'm considering a slight alteration to those travel plans which at the moment are pretty loose but tight enough to know approx where i'm likely to be in that country.  third, some places i like to return to if my trip allows.  i know a bit and sometimes more than just a bit about a place and tonight i discovered there is a BNB apartment i like.  i can see from the pics and the write-up i would stay there.  so on all counts thats been helpfu,l which from my perspective is a positive gain.  i like positive.

with respect to gains for me?  my price is high.  i use the price as a filter.  i also don't wish to have just anyone come to stay not just in terms of my home but also in terms of those others who choose to stay.  i consider filtering on their behalf part of my job.  with respect to getting more bookings, i live in a place where there is not enough beds for the number of tourists we have.  independent travellers are often unaware of this.

i add that the number of wishlist hearts creates a perception of popularity.  even in my mind, when rationally i know this does not necessarily equate to actual reservations.

but i liked reading your perspective annette.

@Helen

Can you help me understand how some Airbnb hosts are increasingly getting their listings embeded on websites like Mapquest, etc.? Since this is your area of expertise in your day job, I am hoping that you can help me out here.

@Helen3  thank you helen for your comments.  i can't talk for others but i think i realise wishlist hearts do not necessarily equate to actual reservations.  however as i've stated elsewhere i do think that perception can play something of a role in thinking that a place is more popular than another on the basis of how many people liked it.  and this also is not necessarily the same thing as actual bookings.

what i have noticed with just this exercise is the number of places i've looked at around the world that i wouldn't have known existed.  i think about 6/+-30  +-20% i liked enough i would stay at.  2x in places i am headed to and 2x i would go out of my way to stay at. 

i use a number of sites during the time i open my house and holiday homes.  i can't see a downside to the use of my time at no cost in wishlisting others and them hearting me in return.

I definitely need some increased traffic to my listing. i just started hosting in early March and have already generated over $4,000 in revenue from bookings ranging from 3 nights to 8 days. however, I have had to reduce my nightly minimum price from $150 to $108. I have hosted 6 parties so far, but the last group will be checking out in the morning and I don't want to just continue cutting the price in hopes of driving more traffic to the site. Out of the 5 groups that have rated us so far, we have an average rating of 4.8 stars. The URL for my listing is https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/17318394. I will reciprocate with your listing. I am not on Twitter, but I do have a Facebook account. Any other suggestions that you have about how to aceive "Search Engine Optimization" would be appreciated. I increasingly see pictures of Airbnb listings popup on various sites ranging from Mapquest to Facebook. Do you know how this is achieved?
