I have been a host for several years. Airbnb bookings this year has been very on and off. I have noticed some trends.
The moment I take a long booking for one of my listings, I will stop getting booking inquiries for the longest time.
I will go through a spurt of getting inquiries back to back and I accept, accept, accept and then I stop getting inquiries for over 20 days. Airbnb says the more you accept the more you get bookings. I haven't found this to be true.
Right now several of my listings have not received a single booking request for over 30 days. I have contacted airbnb several times to look into this as I seriously think to be a technical glitch that puts people like me under so much financial stress. This year airbnb has acted up so many times that my revenue is completely affected. Do you have any suggestions? Please take a look at my listing and please tell me what is going on here. If you like my listing, please favorite it and lets see what happens as I am really concerned.
