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 Madrid: Real Madrid and Atlético fixtures; IFEMA trade fairs such as FITUR; Mad Cool festival in July; Cultural and business travel year-round. Guests I price for: European and Latin American travellers on 2 to 4 night stays in Centro, Malasaña and Salamanca. Where I start: Trade-fair and match-day premiums, an August strategy that reflects the local exodus, and licensed tourist-flat compliance.
Madrid sells mostly through Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo. I set your Madrid pricing so IFEMA fairs, football fixtures, Mad Cool and Pride sit as premium dates, August is priced for foreign visitors rather than as peak summer, and the registration number is visible on Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo with matching rates.
The service in general is described on my other ota optimization page; this page covers how I apply it in Madrid.
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.
“Madrid is a business, football and culture city that empties in August. IFEMA trade fairs like FITUR, Real Madrid and Atlético matches and concerts drive demand, while the city's plan to limit tourist flats in the centre makes licensed ones more valuable. Spain's national registration number is also required on listings now.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
FITUR in late January and ARCO in February fill hotels near IFEMA. I price those fair weeks as premiums and keep the rest of winter on steady weekday rates.
Spring city breaks, San Isidro in May and late-season football lift demand. I price big match nights and festival dates higher and keep weekends firm in Centro.
Mad Cool and the MADO Pride week bring big crowds. I price both as premiums with minimum stays in Chueca, Malasana and the centre.
Many Madrilenos leave the city. I lower floors, favour international visitors and offer weekly discounts rather than holding peak-summer rates.
Business travel returns, fairs restart and Christmas brings shoppers. I price fair weeks, the new Formula 1 race weekend and December bridge holidays firmly.
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.
Price IFEMA trade fairs and FITUR week as premiums.
Add big football fixtures and concerts as date premiums.
Price August for international visitors, not as peak.
Price Centro, Malasaña and Salamanca on separate comps.
Display the national registration number on every listing.
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.

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!

Centro and Sol: The core tourist district around Puerta del Sol and the Plaza Mayor. I price it highest for short city breaks and protect festival and holiday weekends.
