Alaa Elhadi, an independent revenue management consultant, provides Expedia, Agoda and other OTA optimization for rentals for Airbnb hosts, vacation rental owners and property managers in Gotland, Sweden, one to one, remotely and in Central European Time (UTC+1). In Gotland, I price Almedalen week and Medieval Week in August as the peak and January to April as the quiet time, and I build the work around that calendar. Other OTA optimization is quoted per property after a short chat, because the scope depends on the number of properties and room types.

Expedia, Agoda and other OTA optimization for rentals is the work I do to make a property rank, convert and price correctly on other OTAs. I optimize your rental on Expedia and Hotels.com, Agoda, HomeToGo, Plum Guide and other platforms, one channel at a time, with parity checked.
What I plan around in Gotland: Almedalen Week political festival; Medieval Week in Visby; Beaches and cycling; Swedish summer holidays. Guests I price for: Swedish families on weekly stays and festival guests on 3 to 7 nights. Where I start: Event-week premiums, short-season pricing and ferry-dependent minimum stays.
Gotland sells mostly through Booking.com, Airbnb and local agencies. I configure the pricing tool so Almedalen and Medieval Week have their own rates and minimum stays, July runs on weekly blocks, and shoulder weekends adjust automatically. I also connect the calendar to the local agency, where you use one, so the same house never gets sold twice in the busiest week.
The service in general is described on my other ota optimization page; this page covers how I apply it in Gotland.
Expedia Group ranks on content score, rate competitiveness and conversion. I complete the content, structure rate plans and promotions and audit the photos.
Agoda is strong in Asia-Pacific and growing elsewhere. I rebuild your profile, rooms and promotions for its traveler.
TripAdvisor and metasearch put your listing in front of travelers early. I keep rates, availability and your direct link right.
Aggregators and curated platforms send high-value guests when a listing meets their standards. I prepare each one and connect it through your channel manager.
For Gotland rentals, local agencies and Swedish holiday home sites often matter more than international channels, especially for families booking weekly. I compare their terms and decide which weeks each should hold, keeping calendars in sync. Extra channels help most in shoulder months, when Airbnb and Booking.com do not fill everything.
I begin by reviewing any agency agreement, especially which weeks it controls, before adding a Swedish portal for spring and autumn.
Swedish industrial holiday weeks and families from Stockholm keep demand high, so I hold weekly stays on cottages and check ferry availability before pushing any rate higher.
Visby fills with costumed visitors, markets and tournaments, and I price the walled town hardest while lifting nearby villages for guests who could not find a bed inside the wall.
Cobbled lanes, ruins and the busiest weeks of the year make this the price leader; noise, steep streets and no parking need to be stated plainly in each listing.
My full Gotland calendar, areas, pricing moves and the mistakes I fix are on the revenue management consultant page for Gotland.
Not every platform pays for every property. Before adding a channel I look at your market, property type and booking mix and tell you which are likely to earn their place. Then I optimize only those, and leave the rest alone.
A new other OTAs listing
You have just connected other OTAs and want it to rank and convert from the first weeks, not after months of guessing.
Views but few bookings
Visibility looks fine and conversion does not, which usually means content, photos or rate plans on other OTAs.
Commission without much return
You pay other OTAs commission and its share of bookings is small next to your other channels.
A portfolio with uneven quality
Some listings are polished on other OTAs and others were never finished, and nobody owns the standard.
Send me the other OTAs listing or property links and your channel manager. I check how the property ranks and reads today before we speak.
A scorecard for other OTAs: content, photos, rates and promotions, policies and reviews, with every fix ranked by impact.
I make the changes live on Zoom in your other OTAs account or through your channel manager, and explain each one so you can maintain it.
Step 4
About 30 days later I look at impressions, conversion and booking share on other OTAs and adjust what the numbers say to adjust.
I quote Other OTA optimization per property after a short chat. You get a fixed scope and price before any work starts.
| Option | What you get | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Single property | Other OTA optimization for one property | Quoted |
| Several properties | One scope and one price for a group on Other OTA | Quoted |
Real feedback from PriceLabs pricing strategy sessions with Alaa.
Alaa is a consummate professional! Patient, thorough, efficient and effective in communicating. He not only made savvy adjustments to my dynamic pricing strategy, but also helped me to understand the reasoning behind his methods, granting me a better understanding of the PriceLabs platform. Strong work!
Airbnb host
Alaa was fantastic, going through each of the properties I had and gave great advice and actioned a great game plan. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to enhance their pricing strategy on PriceLabs. Alaa's experience goes beyond this which makes it very beneficial to have this holistic approach.
Property manager
Alaa helped me optimize my PriceLabs settings for my Airbnb listing and was very helpful and patient with answering any questions I had. He was also able to clearly explain why he made the changes he made, and it was obvious that he had a lot of experience in this field. I will definitely be back!

For Expedia, Agoda and other OTA optimization for rentals in Gotland, i optimize other OTAs alongside your other channels and check parity, so added reach never creates a conflict. Gotland sells mostly through Booking.com, Airbnb and local agencies. Medieval Week in August: Visby fills with costumed visitors, markets and tournaments, and I price the walled town hardest while lifting nearby villages for guests who could not find a bed inside the wall.
Busiest in Gotland: July and August, with Almedalen Week and Medieval Week the highest. July: Swedish industrial holiday weeks and families from Stockholm keep demand high, so I hold weekly stays on cottages and check ferry availability before pushing any rate higher. Medieval Week in August: Visby fills with costumed visitors, markets and tournaments, and I price the walled town hardest while lifting nearby villages for guests who could not find a bed inside the wall. For Expedia, Agoda and other OTA optimization for rentals, on other OTAs, I line up promotions, rate plans and content with these windows so visibility peaks when demand does.
For Expedia, Agoda and other OTA optimization for rentals, i write content and photo order on other OTAs for the guests who actually search for Gotland. Swedish families on weekly stays and festival guests on 3 to 7 nights. Demand is driven by Medieval Week in Visby and Beaches and cycling.
Visby inside the wall: Cobbled lanes, ruins and the busiest weeks of the year make this the price leader; noise, steep streets and no parking need to be stated plainly in each listing. Fårö and Tofta and the west coast get their own treatment. For Expedia, Agoda and other OTA optimization for rentals, i write location content, photos and amenity highlights on other OTAs around the specific part of Gotland the property is in.
For Expedia, Agoda and other OTA optimization for rentals, the first changes on other OTAs are content completeness and the cover photo, because those decide whether a Gotland traveler clicks. Set lower floors from late August, when Swedish schools restart. Next: open Almedalen dates early for organisations that book whole houses.
Exact walking distance to the town wall and the harbour, which matters more on Gotland than bedroom count during the two big weeks, when guests want to walk everywhere. For Expedia, Agoda and other OTA optimization for rentals, i check this on other OTAs first, because it decides whether the listing is allowed to rank at all.
For Expedia, Agoda and other OTA optimization for rentals in Gotland, this is how I would approach it. I also connect the calendar to the local agency, where you use one, so the same house never gets sold twice in the busiest week. I configure the pricing tool so Almedalen and Medieval Week have their own rates and minimum stays, July runs on weekly blocks, and shoulder weekends adjust automatically. We start in the chat, and I confirm the scope and the price before any work begins.
For Expedia, Agoda and other OTA optimization for rentals, i price properties for a living, so content, rates and promotions are tuned together and not in isolation. I have optimized 100+ properties in and around Gotland and work remotely in Central European Time (UTC+1). Locally, that shows up in decisions like this: price Almedalen and Medieval Week as the top bands, with their own minimum stays.
Other OTA optimization is quoted per property after a short chat, because the scope depends on the number of properties and room types. The scope of Expedia, Agoda and other OTA optimization for rentals is the same in every market, but the plan is not: in Gotland I would start from almedalen week: Organisations book whole houses for the political week near the harbour and Almedalen park; I set a dedicated rate and stay rule, and prefer one clean booking over several fragmented ones. To start, open the chat or email me with your property type and size in Gotland.
Yes.

Results depend on the property, the starting point and the season, so I do not promise a number. In Gotland the first gains from Expedia, Agoda and other OTA optimization for rentals usually come from the change with the clearest local signal: open Almedalen dates early for organisations that book whole houses. I review progress against your own occupancy, ADR and RevPAR, not a market average.
