Optimizing your listing for search engines like Google

Search engines like Google, Baidu, or Bing can bring thousands of potential guests to your listing. This is a short list of tips to improve your search engine positioning:

  • Research what keywords people use when looking for accommodations similar to yours. Experiment with the Google Keyword Tool.
  • Add some of the best keywords to the name of your listing and its web address (Yes! You can customize the web address of your listing).
  • Add more keywords to the selling point and summary of your listing.
  • Link back to your listing. The more incoming links you have, the better your search engine rankings will be. Try to crosslink all of your sites and web pages for best results.

Your Homework:

  • Add keywords to the name of your listing, its selling point, and summary. Go to My Listings, click on Update Listing Details, and click on each section you need to update.
  • Customize the web address of your listing. Go to My Listings, click on Update Listing Details, and click on Change this Address next to the web address of your listing.
