Can't see my listing?

And it can not be found when we search for it - on the desktop or mobile app.

This is my fist time hosting and I am trying to figure what i am doing wrong.

We are trying to rent it for a month instead of scattered weeks and days.

Any advices are welcome. Thank you!

Your listing is visible to others, @Cristina621. But the question how high in the search results it places depends, for example, on factors like whether it uses Instant Book or how flexible the listing's availability is (minimum and maximum duration of stay).

// "The only person you can trust is yourself"

@Cristina621, actually, even though your listing can be clicked on and viewed if you have the link, I am not sure your listing will ever show in the search results.

Why?

Your listing, as it is currently set up, cannot be booked. At all.

 

Looking at your calendar, the first available date is Feb 1.

Terrific! I choose Feb 1 as the start date. Since your minimum stay is apparently at least 30 days, I need to choose a check-out date of Mar 3 or later.

Whoops! Mar 3 has been blocked out from your calendar. So it is impossible to book all of February.

Well, let's try to book some dates in March. The earliest date available in March is Mar 8. So I need to choose a check-out date of at least Apr 7. Whoops! The calendar isn't open past Apr 4. (I imagine you only opened the next 90 days?)

So it is impossible to book any time starting in February, impossible to book any time starting in March, and April isn't open enough yet to book anything.

 

So maybe this is why your listing doesn't appear?

 

Eventually, enough dates will open up so that it is mathematically possible to book your listing. On Jan 6 or so, enough days should open that a person who wants to book exactly from Mar 8 to Apr 7 will be able to see your listing.

But your listing will only be shown to people who put in no dates, or those exact dates.

 

You might not get a lot of views with this calendar setup.
