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 Montevideo: Argentine and Brazilian summer travel; Punta del Este New Year season; Carnival; José Ignacio luxury demand. Guests I price for: Argentine and Brazilian families on weekly and fortnightly summer stays. Where I start: Fortnightly summer pricing in Punta, New Year premiums, and long off-season floors.
Montevideo sells mostly through Airbnb and Booking.com. I set up your pricing tool with fortnightly summer pricing, a New Year premium, fixed changeover days and long off-season monthly rates, keeping Airbnb and Booking.com aligned on currency, taxes and cancellation terms, so Argentine and Brazilian families see the same total on both.
The service in general is described on my other ota optimization page; this page covers how I apply it in Montevideo.
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.
“Punta del Este is one of the most seasonal markets in the Americas. Argentine and Brazilian families rent for a week or two from late December to February, New Year is the top week and the rest of the year is very quiet. Montevideo is steadier, with Carnival.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
New Year week and the first half of January carry the highest rates in Punta, with weekly or fortnightly minimums and fixed changeover days.
Argentine and Brazilian families keep homes full, so I price by fortnight and avoid splitting weeks, while Montevideo's long Carnival keeps city weekends busy.
Uruguay's Easter week brings domestic travellers and some Argentines back to the coast, so I price that week as its own short season and keep the rest of autumn modest.
Punta goes quiet, so I set long-stay and monthly rates for remote workers and residents, while Montevideo keeps steady business demand in Pocitos and Ciudad Vieja.
Long weekends and early spring visitors return, so I open summer rates early and protect New Year and January weeks before short bookings fill them.
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 late December to February by week and fortnight.
Price New Year as the top band.
Price José Ignacio against luxury comps.
Price Montevideo for Carnival and business.
Offer low off-season floors.
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!
