I can't answer your question but I was thinking this as well. I am new to Air B&B (and based in Scotland) with only 2 months under my belt as a host and that facility gave me some measure of activity. There is the 'stats' section which shows views per day, but I am not sure if everytime I look at my own listing I register as a "view". (or if people I know are looking just as they like to be nosy. 🙂 ) At least I knew with the 'fav' thing it was new people interested in the flat. This has been removed this just when I need it most as I am going through my first 'lean' time so anything would help ease the nerves that are gripping me - that no one is ever going to book again! Jo
