I really appreciate that you said that there's plenty for everyone. I hate scorched earth business models and marketing. Thank you for being a stand up guy!

[@OptimizeMyAirbnb]

Hey Sean, great video, I love how SEO keeps changing over time, but I find that your tips will continue to be priceless over time.

[@katongochisenga2785]

Thank you for the tip on using photos of the neighbourhood. I had a headache because my photos are not professional.

[@diduladega]

Hi Sean, I have been a host for almost for 2 years now just renting my spare room.I came a cross your channel by accident and ever since I have been watching,great work thumbs up for that .can you please do a video about marketing your property through your clients sharing your referral code.Also I am working on to be a multiple property host like you after watching your videos.A big thank you for showing the path to success. We are airbnb family. cheers.

[@ghomsdesign]

Thank you so much for this wonderful insights. Quick question, which is better, a 3 bedroom entire house listing or a 2 bedroom entire house listing with a study room?

[@AmiAmi-ji6ll]

Sean all are videos are so informative, this one was very useful , u r best, i did binge watching all your videos one after another

[@leslobo6968]

How do you approach Apartment Communities to Lease to Host , as a Corporate Lease. Do we need an LLC or S CORP to be the Master tenant ? What if they agree , but want to be updated as to who the temp resident is every time we get a new guest ?

[@mohdfarea]

Thank you so much. It is really so much interesting and helpful

[@thesuccessfulgeek1291]

This is great! We just hit the 3 month mark and lost the boost to our listing. We were appearing at the top for our area but now have started appearing much lower on the search results. We will implement some of these strategies to see if we can get back on top! How long have you been hosting properties? Have you noticed a significant decline past the 3 month boost to your properties?

[@jerassimoscoidan6507]

Great video, great advice, thanks! What about discount coupons? Do they help with SEO ranking on Airbnb? Thanks!

[@insertusername2804]

I’m so thankful for your channel. It has help me a lot!

[@mantimeSH]

Solid advice, will use these strats on my next listing. Your videos have been super helpful - new host

[@AirbnbAutomated]

Sean Kennick glad to hear it!

[@seandenneyhomes]

Great Video! Great Advice!

[@stayhungry4054]

Can i use FB ads to advertise my listings ?

[@LiveLetThrive]

Thank you for your knowledge, it helps a lot! In the same manner, how do we organize filters to be more visible in getting more bookings?

[@viriandchris]

Thanks for your videos they are really helpful. I am going to be new with Airbnb and would like a few pointer for starting. Thanks

[@stefanplatzer3318]

Hi there, I love your videos !!! Are you renting your Apartments in Hotels? You are doing a great job! Keep it up!

[@GiftHorse123]

Very good video! I'll be starting soon in the Airbnb world. Just built a new home in Belfast, Maine and have an entire 600 sf suite for rental that is fully ADA compliant. Should I highlight this attribute or just keep it in the filters?

[@codymoore1765]

this is great! thanks for sharing

[@isabellapiovanelli7636]

Tnx! love your video and advice! really helpful!

[@alinasmithdaveishome4821]

Great video! As a private room host; I do NOT want long term stays, I only want 1-7 nights max; Im fine with 1 night stays since I’m close to airport. Currently I set my max nights to 7 nights. Should I set my max to a two week range or a month just for the sake of SEO? I don’t want guests to use my W/D and I do not want them using my stove. I just want tourists or workers in town for job training who are out the whole day.

[@AirbnbAutomated]

Interesting question.

[@AirbnbAutomated]

Yes to opening up your calendar a little. You disclose “amenity limitations” and say that you cannot use certain appliances?

[@michaelbrown7415]

Really enjoy your videos and very much appreciative for the information you provide. My question is about how to enter and/or edit the city for your listing. A number of my immediate neighbors who have listings on Airbnb have managed to use our adjacent (more desirable) city as the city for their listing. I've attempted to use the desired city when starting a new listing but each time I get to the part where Airbnb asks for my official address, the system automatically changes the city name to match the zip code I provide. Do you have any idea how my neighbors are getting the more desirable city to show?

[@brightheartmedia4751]

How do we make the one day more expensive what are the steps? Any newer update on SEO?

[@danielphipps3655]

Can you produce a video on how you organise filters etc? Take us through screenshots of what you do on the computerto back up what you suggest please

[@AlecAArtze]

I have my eye on a few furnished apartments. Not sure if that's wise... also what platforms are used to automate the business?

[@inlandhomes5544]

Can you make a video talking about how you talk to landlords and how you acquire properties in general?

[@AirbnbAutomated]

Editing that video as we speak

[@maxgraham9875]

Great advice and very holistic. It should be very interesting to see how SEO is affected when Airbnb's split testing feature comes through. The point about filters is bang on as well. That's why I like to track my rankings in a completely unfiltered manner so I am not BS'ing myself about the strength of the optimization work. Is anyone using Rankbreeze? I'd highly recommend it. Has saved me a TON of time.

[@СвітланаКвасниця]

Just interested in Rankbreeze. How does it help you operate the Airbnb listings?

[@AirbnbAutomated]

I pay for rankbreeze. Great guy (owner) but I don’t use it... so I can’t say

[@maximusmeridius8932]

Great video, as always. Could you share that FB page where I could find other hosts who could add my listing to their wish list?

[@tatianaandreli2913]

i would also like to know the name of this facebook group. did you ever find it?

[@tatianaandreli2913]

i found it Airbnb Wishlist - Host's Listing Help & Wishlisting

[@dreamchasser3043]

5:30 some people tryna not to look weird but end looking like serial killer 😂😂

[@thechronicillnesstherapist143]

Where do you find the stats on the percentage of bookings that are more than X nights long? For ex, you mentioned in Houston, 50% of bookings are at least 7 days long. I'd like to figure out what those #s look like in Atlanta.

[@tatianaandreli2913]

i would like to get this info for my area as well. did you ever find out how to get it?

[@Krista1921]

I have a question about "niche" marketing. My property borders a regional park with incredible MTB trails. This is the market I would like to appeal to. But worried I will be too niche. So I need to write a property title that appeals to MTB & hikers, AND other people who would like a rural/quiet experience. Your thoughts?

[@OptimizeMyAirbnb]

Great episode! Too bad Airbnb doesn't release more specific info about the search rank. I think we could do a bit of collaboration. I can't find how to contact you, but if you're interested, I'm pretty easy to find with a google search.

[@freeupservices3983]

Owning the internet!

[@tatianaandreli2913]

Here is the facebook group that was mentioned where you get people to add you to their wishlist_ Airbnb Wishlist - Host's Listing Help & Wishlisting

[@keongkam86]

Great idea on charging premium on single nights by increasing single night base price and giving discounts for multiple night stays to match the pricing you want. Currently in airbnb, there is weekly discount or monthly discount option. However, if I want to discourage single night booking but would prefer 3nights or more, how can I setup discount pricing for >3nights stay? Any tricks here? or are we stuck with weekly and monthly discount option only?

[@AirbnbAutomated]

[@christinaz3323]

Another way to limit 1 night bookings far out is to use a customized min night stay. I general have a 3-4 minimum if it's more than a month away. It does take a lot of time to adjust the dates, but it does work. I adjust weekly.

[@AirbnbAutomated]

This will affect your visibility though. Which affects your seo performance. So be careful

[@cmpipe1]

My co-host is already in the system. She has also always been designated as the Primary Host. I also designated her percentage in the routing rules. NOW- when I changed myself (listed in system as Admin) to Primary Host a few days ago it did nothing to fix my problem which is: not being able to view the full itinerary of any guest who has booked after Dec. 19; I cannot see any new reservations as everything is associated with my ID as Admin; the new guests on the calendar show as a black and white profile picture; I cannot communicate with new guests, and next to their thread in the inbox it shows "Not Possible". And lastly: when I click on the guest profile picture from the calendar view, every guest's name is "prune_me". The error that I receive in trying to send an email says that I am restricted from viewing the profile. IF this is what the general problem is then why isn't it fixed when I designate myself as Primary Host?

[@cmpipe1]

OOPS. WRONG THREAD. SORRY!

[@jackiepeterson9450]

How do you offers 2 night discount as you state in your video? I only see a weekly or monthly discount option.

[@AirbnbAutomated]

Airbnb has advised that hosts who do not see these features need to call in. It is a software issue.

[@akivagreenblatt]

Thanks

[@lisaguard9131]

I have just started on Airbnb this may sound silly but I can’t find my listing. I have had a few bookings big question is how do I refer people to my listing? Where the heck is it?

[@AirbnbAutomated]

Go to preview listing on the web version and there’s an option to share it. Or on the app there should be an “up arrow.” Icon that opens the share option

[@mrbobm00]

Has anyone witnessed or heard of Airbnb SEO and views suffering after listing on Booking? I have been steadily in the 2nd 3rd page of my city, when suddenly I fell to 7th after listing on Booking and syncing calendars. Could be a coincidence I know, but feels strange.

[@AirbnbAutomated]

mrbobm007 the syncing could be a coincidence. I would imagine the more business you get off airbnb the less views you get and thus, less ranking

[@mrbobm00]

@@AirbnbAutomated thank you for your reply. I would imagine the same, but since I have zero bookings from Booking as yet, that could not be the same. My availability and prices on Airbnb have not changed at all. Thank you for your reply!

[@anarodas2531]

Great video! I have some more questions, can I pm you somehow?

[@ubaidullahal-mamun6540]

Hey Ana, did you start on your Airbnb business yet?

[@jasonsmall839]

Can you turn the intro volume down? It is much louder than your voice volume.
