Introduction

Airbnb is like our human population - it just keeps growing.

With 100 million users and 640,000 hosts worldwide, Airbnb has opened a whole new market for homeowners and travelers.

Every day, homeowners are making extra cash from their spare rooms while travelers get a bed for a night at an affordable price.

But with over 2.3 million listings in 191 countries worldwide, there's a lot of competition...

Therefore, it’s important you optimize your Airbnb listing to maximize your discoverability.

After all, you can’t persuade potential guests to book with you if they can’t find you.

So how do you go about optimizing your Airbnb listing?

Well, besides having great photos, getting positive reviews, and being a super host, one of the best ways to optimize your listing is having a great description.

An effective description hooks your readers, draws them in, and compels them to book with you. However, a poor description creates a bad image and kills inquiries and bookings.

If you can infuse your Airbnb description with persuasive copy, you’ll be maximizing the chances of interested guests finding and staying with you.

But most hosts fail to realize the importance of having a great description for their listing.

Your title, summary, and description are some of the few areas in your listing that you can optimize to improve your conversions and bookings. After all, if you can’t convince potential guests to book with you, your Airbnb business is going to fail no matter how hard you try.

Your Airbnb listing has to entice visitors and convince them that your place is what they need for their vacation.

Think of your Airbnb listing as your personal salesperson for your place. Once you have it up there, it’s selling your place 24 hours a day 7 days a week.

So you want to make sure it's doing the best job by equipping it with an attention-grabbing title, persuasive summary, and an irresistible description.

Before we dive in, I want to explain how this book is organized so you can get the most out of it.

First, it's focused mainly on using words (i.e. copy) to boost your conversions. For this reason, I won't be going in-depth on how to take photos since that's beyond the scope of this book.

Second, the book is designed to be practical. I’ll cover different aspects of the Airbnb listing and offer tips for you to keep in mind. I’ve also included an Action Plan for you to complete which allows you to practice the knowledge and skills you have learned from each chapter. 

Lastly, if there is something you don't understand, you can always contact me.

I’m a professional copywriter, avid traveler, and I’ve helped many Airbnb hosts to get more bookings. I’ve also published a number of bestselling books, including The Airbnb Superhost Checklist and The Airbnb SEO Bible.

I'm fully committed to give you everything that you need to take your Airbnb business to the next level.

So, are you ready to take your Airbnb listings up a notch? Let’s get started!

Chapter 1: Appeal To Your Target Guests

Who are your target guests?

Are they baby boomers or Millennials?

Are they university students or families?

If you don’t know who your target guests are, you have some homework to do.

Many hosts make the mistake of trying to appeal to everyone.

This is a big no-no since it makes your description weak and unfocused.

The Hugh Hefner Sky Villa Palms Resort in Las Vegas is specifically targeted for the rich 1 percent of people who are lucky enough to afford it. In comparison, most hostels target travelers looking for an affordable place to stay.

Appeal to your target guests and you’ll be maximizing the chances of them booking with you.

So how do you figure this out?

The easiest way to learn about your target market is by asking them. If you already have your own website or social media page, you can run a short survey or questionnaire to get their feedback. For example, to encourage participation, you can run a lucky draw where the winner receives a 20% discount at your place for a night.

If you already had guests, you should have a decent idea of what they want. If guests are staying with you, try to get to know them better by learning about their specific needs.

Some simple questions you could ask include:

Why are you visiting the city?

What places do you want to see?

What made you decide to book with me?

Obviously, make it casual since it’s not an interview. It should be like getting to know a friend better so
