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 Montpellier: Mediterranean beaches at Palavas and La Grande-Motte; Festival de Radio France; Place de la Comedie and the Ecusson; Languedoc and Pic Saint-Loup wine. Guests I price for: students' families, festival-goers and beachgoers on 3 to 6 night stays in the Ecusson old town and the Antigone district. Where I start: a warm-climate summer beach and festival peak, student-city demand through term time, and French meuble de tourisme registration.
Montpellier sells mostly through Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo and Abritel. I set up PriceLabs or Wheelhouse with you so festival weeks are loaded as events, term-time stays for families and academics have their own rules, and beach homes run weekly in summer. Booking.com, Vrbo and Abritel then read from that same plan.
The service in general is described on my other ota optimization page; this page covers how I apply it in Montpellier.
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.
“Montpellier is a student city with beaches next door. Term time brings parents and academics, summer brings beachgoers to Palavas and La Grande-Motte, and the Festival de Radio France fills July. I price summer and festival weeks and use term-time demand to support the rest.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
Visiting academics, hospital-related stays and students' families keep some demand alive, so I allow longer stays and keep the floor steady rather than cutting deeply.
Spring weekends, the action sports festival and graduation season lift demand, and I firm up weekends while keeping weekday stays flexible for visiting families.
Beaches, dance and music festivals all overlap, so I price July highest in the city and let beach-side homes run on weekly stays with firm rates.
Term starts bring student families and conferences, so I price early September well and ease towards winter while protecting key weekends.
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!

Montpellier sells mostly through Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo and Abritel. January and February: Visiting academics, hospital-related stays and students' families keep some demand alive, so I allow longer stays and keep the floor steady rather than cutting deeply.
Busiest in Montpellier: June to September for the Mediterranean beaches and the Festival de Radio France. July and August: Beaches, dance and music festivals all overlap, so I price July highest in the city and let beach-side homes run on weekly stays with firm rates.

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 Montpellier. Students' families, festival-goers and beachgoers on 3 to 6 night stays in the Ecusson old town and the Antigone district. Demand is driven by Festival de Radio France and Place de la Comedie and the Ecusson.
The Écusson: The medieval old town sells to couples and festival visitors; I price it as the premium city option and protect July weekends first. Antigone and Port Marianne and Palavas and Carnon get their own treatment.

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 Montpellier traveler clicks. Display registration numbers. Next: add Festival de Radio France dates.
Whether the meublé de tourisme declaration and tourist tax are correct, because Montpellier and coastal communes are tightening checks on holiday lets. 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 Montpellier, this is how I would approach it. com, Vrbo and Abritel then read from that same plan.

We start in the chat, and I confirm the scope and the price before any work begins.
