Listing not showing up!

[Nancy114]

Greetings,

I have four listings on AirBnB.  They are all active, and the calendars are clear.  When I do a search for a six week period, none of my listings appear.  When I narrow the search to one week, they all appear.  Any ideas why?

Hello @Nancy114,

That looks like it's the 28+ days issue where some hosts report that their listings are not visible in searches for stays of 28 days or more.

Some time ago a guy posted about that problem and said that Airbnb told him that a listing must have a monthly discount set in order for it to show in search results for 28+ days.

The maximum stay must also be set to something more than 28.

I tried it as a test on my listing by setting a 1% monthly discount and max of 40 nights. Before doing that it did not appear in search results for a 30 day stay. After setting the discount it did show.

This is the old post.

There's also a "Long term stays allowed" check box in the "Logistics" section under "Amenities". This may help in some cases but I didn't have it checked when I did the experiment mentioned above and 28+ day searches still worked when I set a monthly discount.

Some hosts have reported that setting a discount didn't help them so you may have to contact Airbnb support if it doesn't help in your case.

Thanks, Steve!  I added a discount for a long term stay, and that solved the problem.

Appreciate your help!

Best,
