If your Airbnb listing isn’t getting consistent bookings, you’re not alone. A lot of hosts rely only on Airbnb, but here’s the secret: you should be on multiple platforms.

✅ Airbnb
✅ Booking.com
✅ VRBO
✅ Expedia & more!

This means more guests see your listing, leading to higher occupancy and better earnings.

Two factors control how much money you can make out of your Short Stay Rental (STR): occupancy level and nightly rates. If you rely on just one or two Online Travel Agencies (OTAs) like Airbnb or Booking.com to get your bookings you’re missing out on revenue and very vulnerable to changes with any one of the OTAs. And did you know that Airbnb only ranks as the 8th largest booking platform in Australia? So if your only on Airbnb you are not even on a top 5 platform.

The Airbnb redesign really impacted our business, but after 4 weeks of work, I’ve now more than tripled my views and generated over $14k in new bookings. I wanted to share what I have done with you. I hope it helps. If you have a hack, please share it in the comments so everyone can learn.

Just over a year ago I arrived at my property to find over 100 people having a party, smoking, using drugs and in the process of trashing my penthouse in St Kilda. So I got very serious about vetting my guests and my property’s security. Since I implemented my new processes, I have not had a single party issue. I have documented everything we have done here and I hope you find it useful. Let me know what works for you with your Airbnb?

If you're operating a short term rental should you list on more than one booking site or is Airbnb enough?
