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 Zaragoza, Spain, one to one, remotely and in Central European Time (UTC+1). In Zaragoza, I price Fiestas del Pilar (around 12 October) as the peak and January and July and August 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 Zaragoza: Fiestas del Pilar; Basilica del Pilar pilgrimage; AVE high-speed business travel; Aljaferia palace. Guests I price for: domestic Spanish visitors and business travellers on 1 to 3 night stays in the Casco Historico near the Basilica. Where I start: a single dominant October festival peak, midweek AVE business demand between Madrid and Barcelona, and Aragon VUT registration for holiday lets.
Zaragoza sells mostly through Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo. I configure PriceLabs or Wheelhouse for a Zaragoza host with Pilar as a protected block, one-night stays opened in the hot months, and weekday pricing linked to the train corridor. Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo then all follow the same calendar instead of drifting apart.
The service in general is described on my other ota optimization page; this page covers how I apply it in Zaragoza.
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.
“Zaragoza has one dominant week, the Fiestas del Pilar in October, and steady AVE business travel between Madrid and Barcelona the rest of the year. Most guests are Spanish and stay briefly. I price Pilar firmly and keep midweeks tuned for business.”

After Reyes the city goes quiet, so I protect a modest floor, open single nights freely and lean on hospital, university and trade-fair visitors rather than chasing leisure guests who are simply not coming.
Semana Santa processions and the drum tradition lift Easter, and spring weekends sell to Spanish couples. I price those weekends up and keep Monday to Thursday tied to train-borne business demand.
The heat empties the old town, so I shorten minimum stays, accept one-night bookings and target families breaking a long drive to the coast or the Pyrenees.
Business travel returns after the holidays and conferences pick up, so I firm weekday rates again and keep the week before Pilar clear of cheap long stays that would block the festival.
The Ofrenda de Flores and the full festival week sit on their own calendar block, with a minimum stay, no last-minute discount and a check that cleaning crews are booked well ahead.
I use Christmas lights weekends, the Puente de la Constitucion and the December holidays as small weekend lifts, while keeping weekday rates realistic for corporate travellers.
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 Fiestas del Pilar week as the top band with minimum stays.
Set midweek business rates for AVE travellers.
Price Casco Histórico homes near the Basilica higher.
Allow short stays outside Pilar.
Lower July, August and January 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!

For Expedia, Agoda and other OTA optimization for rentals in Zaragoza, i optimize other OTAs alongside your other channels and check parity, so added reach never creates a conflict. Zaragoza sells mostly through Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo. Fiestas del Pilar (around 12 October): The Ofrenda de Flores and the full festival week sit on their own calendar block, with a minimum stay, no last-minute discount and a check that cleaning crews are booked well ahead.
Busiest in Zaragoza: October for the Fiestas del Pilar, plus spring city-break weeks. Fiestas del Pilar (around 12 October): The Ofrenda de Flores and the full festival week sit on their own calendar block, with a minimum stay, no last-minute discount and a check that cleaning crews are booked well ahead. 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 Zaragoza. Domestic Spanish visitors and business travellers on 1 to 3 night stays in the Casco Historico near the Basilica. Demand is driven by Basilica del Pilar pilgrimage and AVE high-speed business travel.
El Tubo and the Casco Historico: Tapas lanes beside the Plaza del Pilar make this the festival address; I build the highest Pilar premium here and accept noisier nights in the listing description. Delicias and Romareda and the university area 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 Zaragoza 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 Zaragoza traveler clicks. Lower July, August and January floors. Next: set midweek business rates for AVE travellers.
Whether the Pilar block was opened early enough, because I often find festival dates sitting at an ordinary October rate or, worse, already sold too cheaply months ahead. 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 Zaragoza, this is how I would approach it. com and Vrbo then all follow the same calendar instead of drifting apart. I configure PriceLabs or Wheelhouse for a Zaragoza host with Pilar as a protected block, one-night stays opened in the hot months, and weekday pricing linked to the train corridor. 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 Zaragoza and work remotely in Central European Time (UTC+1). Locally, that shows up in decisions like this: price Fiestas del Pilar week as the top band with minimum stays.
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 Zaragoza I would start from fiestas del Pilar (around 12 October): The Ofrenda de Flores and the full festival week sit on their own calendar block, with a minimum stay, no last-minute discount and a check that cleaning crews are booked well ahead. To start, open the chat or email me with your property type and size in Zaragoza.
Yes.
