Price tips irrelevant for specialist and unique properties

Price tips irrelevant for specialist and unique properties

We have a rare and very unique property with incredible view of the ocean and the sounds of the ocean;  and accordingly the pricing is set higher than the price tips.

 

 I have been advised and if you don’t comply with prize tips the algorithms do not work in your favour for listing placement and reservations.

 

Can I get some confirmation/advice and clarification on this matter from an Airbnb programming specialist please

@Sante-Livia0 hello, not sure you realize the Community Center here is hosts mostly from all over the world that share hints, tips, suggestions and such - there is a community manager Admin  Lizzy that oversees all and sometimes shares our wants, needs and requests on to those working for Airbnb when we need to be heard. So you might find someone that is  progam specialist but not alot of Airbnb employees, I'm fairly sure. However, if you search the topic about price suggestions you will see many of us get those suggestions and ignore them....some change prices....there are other factors that also contribute to listing placement and your SEO search engine optimazation - like updating your calendar, your response time,  etc. Anyway, I write all that to say we are hosts just like you - we share our experience and what we know. also, there are many with loads of brains, ideas and they generously help many others. Happy hosting, Clara

@Sante-Livia0 Hey just looked at your amazing place - with prices that knocked me out - we call that dirt cheap - wow................anyway, I just wanted to say your listing states 0 beds.............along with the Title you might want to fix that - you actually have 3 beds! that would effect folks when looking because we say on here that most guests Don't read all the listing info..............just my 2 cents, Clara

Thank you Clara so much for your help and feedback it’s greatly appreciated.  We previously had listed a number of beds as 1plus sofa bed however we were getting bookings for four people ... And as the apartment is only 30 m² we were concerned for the level of guest comfort (and negative reviews on the tightness of space for 4 people, despite warning then at booking stage) 

 

 We are also open to alternative title suggestions ...

@Sante-Livia0 we use the @ with the persons name and then they get a notice to read what was sent to them!!

my off the top suggestion for a new title:  Bright, Lux Studio Apt in great location................

read your guests reviews, they will help with ideas of words, adjectives to use. good luck, Clara

Wonderful! Thank you for your awesome feedback!
