well organized information, clear explanations, By Far the best Air B&B guide out of the 5 or 6 I have watched, probably the best of them all.
Thanks for the kind words!!
correct on all of your findings. keep up the great work.
You sound like a McKinsey Consultant - Super cool stuff.
Finally! An easy to follow and logical presentation on SEO and the Airbnb algorithm! Thank you!
Thanks so much for watching ☺️
Definitely have to rewatch this one! Thanks Lydia!
Great info. Thx for sharing!!
Thank you for this!
What a nice educational video. Amazing!
Very helpful, I hope this info helps boost my listing/bookings once implemented. TY
Systematic and clear presentation. The info is very useful. Thank you 🙏
Great tips, thanks
Thanks Ben!
So analytical. Love it. I think super host makes you appear further out, zoom in for reg hosts. Big advantage
This is an amazing video! I am so happy I found your channel.
Thanks for watching, David!
Love this
Thanks for the amazing video. I'm about to start this journey and thus has been helpful
So great to hear ❤️ best of luck!
Lydia; Just found you a couple of days ago and have watched a few videos. You are AWESOME! My daughter and her husband are about to get into Airbnb and do what you do. You are a pro and do a great job with your videos. Thank you for what you do. LIKE and comment will be mission to support your channel. Thank you Lydia. God bless you and your Family
Thank you for your kind words! All the best to your daughter and their project. :-)
Thanks for thiss!
You’re welcome!
Just to say thank you. Im from another country but still very usefull content. Cheers
Thanks for making my day!
Loved this video, so helpful Lydia, thank you! Could you give a little insight about how you decide to either approve or decline a booking inquiry/request? Are there screening questions that you use that you find to be helpful? What might be an example of a reason you would decline? Thanks for your help!
Thanks Jessica! I have instant book turned on, so as long as someone has positive reviews and their ID verified, it automatically is approved. If someone that fit these criteria sends me a question or inquiry, I would preapprove them also.
I only have hesitation if there are multiple bad reviews, or they seem to have plans for a party (eg recently declined someone who wanted to “host a small wedding weekend”.. they couldn’t tell me exactly how many people..). Basically anyone who intends to break major house rules, or reviews.
One final note to be consistent and decide what you’ll decline ahead of time - just like any rental, you’ll want to avoid discriminating practices. :-) hope this helps!
8:28 really helpful video, Lydia. Thanks! One question: when you say your tropical yard thumbnail does the best, how are you measuring that? Does Airbnb give you any analytics?
Totally subjective based on when I’m getting bookings 😅 it’s hard to get cause and effect. I saw someone do an A/B thumbnail test by running Facebook ads with each picture and then comparing clickthrough- that would be a more definitive measurement!
About the superstition thing. I updated my description yesterday just after watching this video. And guess what ? I got a booking today after not having anything for more than a month now. Talk about a coincidence !
I think I'm going to update my description and my items every week now. 😂
PROOF!! Haha I love that you got a booking!!!
@@lydiapatelll Thank you for your useful videos.
Sweet thanks beautiful 😊
Very helpful video Lydia. Just a small question. In your experience, what would be the minimum number for booking conversion and CTR? (In average of course, I know every listing/city is different.
You’re right, every listing and city will do a bit differently. But I’ve had solid outcomes with usually 0.6-0.7% conversion. When I go past 1% sometimes it’s underpriced. It’ll take some time to figure out what number is the sweet spot for you. And I’m sure it’ll change over time for me as well!
Hi Lydia, can you make a video on hiw you use pricelabs?
Thanks for the idea!
@@lydiapatelll I will really appreciate it.
Thank you for another great video....but could you please turn the music WAY down. It's drouning you out.
Appreciate the feedback!
From my experience, the referral link doesn't work. Was on calls with Airbnb for weeks with my friend and they found ways to "close the case" and stop talking to us every time. Looks like its not just me either. 2nd referral also didn't work. Got Airbnb 2 host referrals with zero payout after reading fine print and verifying I followed everything.
Oh no! That is terrible, and their customer service is really hit or miss.. I have personally had better luck than that (thanks to everyone!), but it does seem the new host would have to complete a booking over a certain $ amount for the referral $ to pay out.
I've been hosting for 2 years and noticed a big SEO decline of my listing and substantial YoY revenue decrease. I know that's not uncommon in 2023 vs 2022 due to COVID. Curious if you see value in me deleting my listing and making a new listing? I have 80+ reviews at 4.98 average. Wondering if a new listing SEO boost would help regain momentum of my property on Airbnb, thanks!
You know I’ve thought that same thought when I had a slow month. Ultimately decided the reviews are more worthwhile! Try some of the other tricks first, that would be my preference ☺️ best of luck
