I've now seen this advice posted several times but it doesn't work because the AI doesn't work.
Numerous hosts have already posted about their bookings completely drying up and their views plummeting, and not showing in the categories they should be in. Many of these hosts have very clearly done everything you suggest above. They have up to date amenities, the features 100% fit the category and they have stunning professional photography.
Meanwhile, there are listings showing up in the category searches that are completely irrelevant, often with rubbish photography.
As for me, there's only one category that I can see that I fit into, which is shared homes. My listings don't show up and, as I have mentioned before, I have photos taken by Airbnb professional photographers. If those photos are not good enough for the AI, why are Airbnb employing those photographers?!
And, how many times should I have to mention the word 'shared home' in my listing? It's in the basic listing info that you have to fill in, so why can't the AI pick that up? It should be pretty obvious that a private room with shared bathrooms is a shared home. Plus, you can be sure that 'shared home' is not a term my guests will ever use in their reviews.
I don't even care that much if I show up in that category, although I feel very sorry for the hosts who should be in a specific category like beach front, for example, and aren't, while properties that are not beachfront show up. What I care about is that, even if guests can still search the traditional way, my views and bookings have been decimated by the Summer Release and no one can offer any meaningful advice on what I can do about it.
