suddenly no booking

suddenly no booking

I am a new host last month.  at the beginning of 5 days,  my apartment was booked by two people for 5 days,  and got 5 star' review, but  then suddenly no booking at all, no inbox,  nothing,  suddenly quite.  what's wrong with my listing?

Hello I’ve been hosting for a month also. I got booking in the beginning. But now I have nothing. I looked on Airbnb and I see my listing but wondering why nothing now?

@Weiyong0  and @Kelli405  So, when you did your market research on opening a STR,  it led you to believe that you would be solidly booked from the day you started your AirBnB? I don't think so. 

 

AirBnB, and the hospitality industry as a whole, is subject to supply and demand. You're now part of the supply, and there may not be enough demand. What demand there is is likely going to more established hosts with lots of good reviews. 

 

There are no guarantees in this business. Plan accordingly.

Thank you very much for your response. I’m hoping to have more bookings soon
