@Julianna34 I have been successfully listing on multiple platforms for more than 20 years. I started with VRBO (when it was not named that) and VRBO was 85% of my bookings along with direct marketing through my own website. I have only used AirBnB for the past few years. I do not use Booking.com at all.
In 2021 going into 2022 AirBnB was 60% of my bookings. In late 2022 into 2023 VRBO is 70% of my bookings. With the summer revamp of AirBnB my AirBnB bookings dried up and have yet to recover, mostly because VRBO bookings have taken over availability.
My guest demographic is 30-60 years old, no children (or grown children), multiple pets, interested in hiking, unique restaurants, brewery tours and antiques. The VRBO guests are on the older side whereas the AirBnB guests are far younger and less communicative.
As an aside, I would never offer my property on Craigs list, nor would I rent a property that was on Craigs list for my vacation.
