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 Myrtle Beach, United States, one to one, remotely and in Eastern Time (UTC-5). In Myrtle Beach, I price June to August as the peak and January and February and November and December 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 Myrtle Beach: Summer beach season; Golf packages in spring and autumn; Bike weeks in May; Carolina Country Music Fest. Guests I price for: Drive-to families on 5 to 7 night stays, golf groups midweek in the shoulder seasons. Where I start: Summer weekly pricing, golf-group midweek strategies, and deep winter floors with reduced minimum stays.
Myrtle Beach sells mostly through Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com. For Myrtle Beach hosts I set up PriceLabs or Wheelhouse with Saturday changeovers in summer, golf-group midweek rules, festival and bike week dates, and monthly snowbird pricing for winter, all benchmarked against comparable units in the same building and refreshed as the season's pace becomes clear.
The service in general is described on my other ota optimization page; this page covers how I apply it in Myrtle Beach.
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.
“Myrtle Beach is a volume market with a sharp summer peak and a surprisingly useful golf season on either side. Families drive in for summer weeks, while golf groups book midweek in spring and autumn. Winter is deep, so the pricing job is about capturing summer fully and building enough shoulder revenue to carry the quiet months.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
Canadian and northern snowbirds book monthly stays, so I set a monthly rate card for oceanfront condos and keep nightly floors low enough to catch weekend visitors.
Can-Am Days, spring break, golf trips and the SOS Spring Safari bring different guests, so I price each block separately and add bike week rules in mid-May.
The summer weeks and the Carolina Country Music Fest are the core of the year, so I set Saturday changeovers for family homes and keep oceanfront rates firm until the final days.
Golf groups, the World Amateur Handicap Championship and the SOS Fall Brawl fill midweeks and weekends, so I price for groups and shorten stays as summer families leave.
Thanksgiving and Christmas carry a few strong weeks, so I price those dates individually and then move to monthly offers for the early winter snowbirds.
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 June to August on weekly stays, with Memorial Day and July 4th weeks as the top bands.
Target golf groups with midweek pricing and 3 to 4-night stays in April, May, September and October.
Add bike weeks and the Carolina Country Music Fest as date premiums.
Set deep but cost-covering winter floors with 2-night minimums and monthly options.
Price condos by oceanfront or ocean view against units in the same resort.
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 Myrtle Beach, i optimize other OTAs alongside your other channels and check parity, so added reach never creates a conflict. Myrtle Beach sells mostly through Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com. March to May: Can-Am Days, spring break, golf trips and the SOS Spring Safari bring different guests, so I price each block separately and add bike week rules in mid-May.
Busiest in Myrtle Beach: June to August, with Memorial Day and July 4th, and golf shoulder seasons in April to May and September to October. June to August: The summer weeks and the Carolina Country Music Fest are the core of the year, so I set Saturday changeovers for family homes and keep oceanfront rates firm until the final days. 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 Myrtle Beach. Drive-to families on 5 to 7 night stays, golf groups midweek in the shoulder seasons. Demand is driven by Golf packages in spring and autumn and Bike weeks in May.
North Myrtle Beach and Cherry Grove: Quieter family beaches and shag-dancing weekends; I price for weekly family stays in summer and add the SOS weekends as premiums. Central Myrtle Beach and the Boardwalk and Surfside Beach, Garden City and Murrells Inlet 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 Myrtle Beach 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 Myrtle Beach traveler clicks. Price condos by oceanfront or ocean view against units in the same resort. Next: target golf groups with midweek pricing and 3 to 4-night stays in April, May, September and October.
Whether the city or county business licence and accommodations tax are in place, because Horry County and the beach towns each collect their own taxes on short stays. 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 Myrtle Beach, this is how I would approach it. For Myrtle Beach hosts I set up PriceLabs or Wheelhouse with Saturday changeovers in summer, golf-group midweek rules, festival and bike week dates, and monthly snowbird pricing for winter, all benchmarked against comparable units in the same building and refreshed as the season's pace becomes clear. 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 Myrtle Beach and work remotely in Eastern Time (UTC-5). Locally, that shows up in decisions like this: price June to August on weekly stays, with Memorial Day and July 4th weeks as the top bands.
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 Myrtle Beach I would start from June to August: The summer weeks and the Carolina Country Music Fest are the core of the year, so I set Saturday changeovers for family homes and keep oceanfront rates firm until the final days. To start, open the chat or email me with your property type and size in Myrtle Beach.
