Hi

How do I get bookings initially 

2 Replies 2

Hi @Sanjukta3 Starting as a new Airbnb host can be exciting but maybe a bit challenging when you're trying to attract your first bookings. You may consider the following to help you gain your first booking. 

 

- Ensure your listing has high-quality, well-lit photos that showcase the best aspects of your property. 

- Write a clear, detailed, and honest description of your space. Highlight unique features, amenities, and any local attractions or conveniences.

- Look at how similar properties in your area are priced. Setting a slightly lower price initially can make your listing more appealing to potential guests. Adjust your rates based on demand during different seasons or local events that may increase visitor numbers.

- After each stay, kindly ask your guests to leave a review if they enjoyed their stay. Positive reviews can significantly boost your credibility and attract more guests. Hope this helps!
