Airbnb and Serviced Accommodation Hosts. Let me start this video by saying Booking. com doesn’t care about you or your business 😬. None of the booking sites do. Their list of priorities is themselves first ☝, guests second ✌ and us hosts last 🤏. Never mind cash cows, they see us as commission cows. They call us partners but we’re really just numbers that exist to house “their” guests 🙄.

But as much as I hate to admit it we need them, definitely not as much as they need us but we need them nonetheless. But let’s be clear. They work for us, not the other way around 💪.

In this video I’m going to show you some hacks and optimisations to use on Booking. com to make your life easier and your business better.

Some are going to make you more money 🤑, some are going to get you more direct bookings 🚀, some are going to get you ranking higher in search results 📈 and some are going to protect you from all those bad guests that hang out on booking.com 🛡.

Now if you’re Mr or Mrs perfect and want to let Booking. com keep optimising your listing for their guests at your expense then this video isn’t for you. But if you’re willing to bend a few rules and think this giant is fair game then keep watching.
