How to get More booking

I’m a super host. I have 5 starts and I also have great reviews. However I’m not receiving enough bookings. Can you guys help me understand why. I have great pictures, I offer mostly everything. I don’t understand why I’m not receiving enough bookings. What am I doing wrong ?

@Demis-Collection-LLC0 Many markets are now over saturated with accommodation. In Derbyshire for instance there is 38% more capacity than last year. Sadly many hosts will realise STR is not a simple way to make money and will give up. Once supply reduces bookings/host will revert to 'normal' levels.


Allow me to provide you with some insights that might help you identify potential areas for improvement.

Market Research: Take some time to research your local market and analyze your competitors. Are there any unique features or offerings they have that you might be missing? Understanding the current trends and demands in your area can help you align your listing more effectively.

Pricing Strategy: Review your pricing strategy. Are your rates competitive compared to similar listings in your area? Keep in mind that pricing can significantly impact a guest's decision-making process. Consider adjusting your rates based on factors such as seasonality, local events, or any additional services you provide.

Listing Optimization: While you mentioned having great pictures, it's worth revisiting your listing to ensure it is fully optimized. Make sure your listing title and description are compelling, highlighting the unique aspects and benefits of your property. Consider using targeted keywords that potential guests might search for when looking for accommodations in your area.

Guest Feedback: Pay attention to any feedback or comments from your previous guests. Look for recurring themes or suggestions that could provide valuable insights into areas where you can improve. Addressing any concerns raised by guests can help enhance the overall guest experience and boost your bookings.
If you have a valuable skill set that can be leveraged to promote your Airbnb listing. Utilize various social media platforms to showcase the unique features of your property, engage with potential guests, and create appealing content that generates interest and bookings. You can also consider running targeted ad campaigns to reach a wider audience.
