Airbnb listing optimization is the work I do to make a property rank, convert and price correctly on Airbnb. I rewrite the title and description around how guests search, choose and order photos, and tune amenities and booking settings so Airbnb ranks the listing higher.
What I plan around in Indiana Dunes: Indiana Dunes National Park beaches; Chicago weekend escapes via the South Shore Line; Michigan City lighthouse and outlets; Blue Chip Casino and lakeshore dining. Guests I price for: Chicago families and couples on 2 to 3 night summer weekends. Where I start: Summer weekend premiums with 2-night minimums, holiday-week pricing, and winter floors.
Indiana Dunes sells mostly through Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com. I run Indiana Dunes and Michigan City pricing on Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com in PriceLabs or Wheelhouse, with weekend minimums tuned for Chicago guests, holiday overrides for the Fourth and Labor Day, autumn football lifts in Michigan City, and winter floors that cover your cleaning and heating costs.
The service in general is described on my airbnb listing optimization page; this page covers how I apply it in Indiana Dunes.
Airbnb reads your title, summary and details to decide which searches you appear in. I research how guests in your market search and write to match.
Guests decide in seconds. I pick the cover that wins the click, order the gallery as a story and caption the features guests care about.
Missing amenities cost filters and strict rules cost conversion. I audit every toggle and set the combination that converts without adding risk.
I review your listings before the call, then make every change with you on screen, so you leave with a finished listing rather than a to-do list.
Chicago guests booking the Dunes want to know three things fast: how far the beach is, how they get there, and where the sand goes when they come back. I write titles around the walk to the lake or the nearest South Shore stop, lead with beach and dune photos, and describe outdoor showers, beach gear and parking in the first lines.
My first fix is the title and first photo, rewritten around the walk to the beach in minutes rather than vague phrases like near the lake.
Warm September weekends still sell to Chicago couples and home football games lift Michigan City, so I shorten stays and price each weekend on its own merits.
Lake-effect snow and empty beaches mean I chase short couple escapes, casino weekends and hikers on the dune trails, with low floors and single nights allowed outside holiday dates.
Inland but close to the state park and the European Market, these suit families watching their budget; I price below beach homes and push weekly summer stays.
My full Indiana Dunes calendar, areas, pricing moves and the mistakes I fix are on the revenue management consultant page for Indiana Dunes.
A listing that ranks but is priced badly wastes the visibility, and a well-priced listing nobody sees earns nothing. I optimize the listing for search and conversion first, then tune the pricing around the traffic it earns.
A new Airbnb listing
You have just connected Airbnb 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 Airbnb.
Commission without much return
You pay Airbnb commission and its share of bookings is small next to your other channels.
A portfolio with uneven quality
Some listings are polished on Airbnb and others were never finished, and nobody owns the standard.
Send me the Airbnb listing or property links and your channel manager. I check how the property ranks and reads today before we speak.
A scorecard for Airbnb: content, photos, rates and promotions, policies and reviews, with every fix ranked by impact.
I make the changes live on Zoom in your Airbnb 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 Airbnb and adjust what the numbers say to adjust.

Strong work!

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!
