Wrong Category

Hi! I’m new to air bnb and I have no idea how to fix my problem. I’ve recently checked my listing and found out it’s been put into the category for rooms but I’m listing my entire house. I’ve went to Air bnb support but they said they can’t really do anything and just put home in my title but that don’t really help because people organize it by category, not title. 
If anyone has suggestions or ideas, I would really appreciate it.

Hi @Cing10 

Has this perhaps been corrected now? It looks like it's showing as a house. I applied the filter for "entire home" and it does show up with the filter applied.

Ah yes! It’s been corrected, I have no idea how it happened but it eventually corrected.

That's great to hear, thank you for coming back to let us know @Cing10!

 

Good luck with your new listing, have you already received your first booking or is that an exciting milestone to look forward to? 🙂

 

Thanks,

Hi Emilie! I have yet to receive a booking as of lately but hopefully with this fix, it’ll change!

Hi Cing,

Welcome to the Airbnb hosting community! I completely understand how frustrating it must be to see your entire house listed under the "rooms" category—it can really impact how potential guests find your property.

If you’d like, I’d be happy to take a closer look at your listing and share some specific tips to make it stand out despite this categorization issue. Sometimes, small tweaks in the description, photos, or settings can make a big difference.

Additionally, I have experience helping other hosts optimize their listings and attract more bookings. If you'd like, we can brainstorm some strategies together to ensure your house gets the visibility it deserves! 😊

Let me know if that sounds good to you—I’m here to help.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Best regards,
Victor
