Hosts who update their listings four times per year book 30% more nights than those who don’t. Each 5-star review translates to 4.6% more bookings and roughly $900 in additional annual revenue.
This episode breaks down what actually affects search ranking based on official platform data, not guesses or outdated advice.
Key Takeaways:
✅ Every 5-star review generates 4.6% more bookings and 3% revenue growth over the following year
✅ Properties with 90% or higher response rates rank better than slower competitors, even with similar review scores
✅ Verified WiFi speeds reduce connectivity complaints by 88%, and specifying shared pool status cuts pool-related issues by 54%
✅ The Guest Favorite badge creates measurable visibility boosts, properties with this designation see significantly higher occupancy than comparable listings without it
