Tips to Get Your Airbnb Listing Noticed with The Right Airbnb Cover Photo
Do guests reject your Airbnb without even viewing your listing? Since how many days have you listed your Airbnb but found zero prospects for the month? This happens more than often to many hosts, and one of the prime reasons for such disappointment is unattractive cover photos of your Airbnb.
Even if your Airbnb has top-notch facilities and interior, there is no way you can attract guests to your Airbnb with a messy or shabby image portraying your Airbnb. Guests on the Airbnb application move really fast, and if your cover photo isn't able to attract their attention in the first few seconds, they will scroll past your listing like they are doing right now. This is how you lost countless potential guests without even getting the chance to at least greet them!
This is why we have curated a really comprehensive yet concise guide for our Airbnb hosts who are struggling to get their listings noticed amidst the crowd. Follow these tips to have an insight on how you should proceed onto clicking a striking cover photo for your Airbnb and ensure that it attracts the right kind of guests you would like to invite to your Airbnb. Let's get started.
Highlight the unique traits
There are probably hundreds of Airbnb listed in your area, to say the least. If you want to make your listing noticed and compel the viewers to click on your listing, you need to highlight what makes your Airbnb stand out from the rest.
Is it the amenities you provide to your consumers or the breathtaking interior? Ensure that your cover photo consists of visuals of what it feels like staying on your Airbnb.
Every Airbnb offers a standard washroom and kitchen for their guests. You need to highlight the additional amenities and services you provide to make their stay more memorable.
2. Attract your Ideal Guests
After highlighting the benefits and advantages of living on your Airbnb, it's time to attract the right type of guests to your place. Make your Airbnb squeaky clean and tap into your hospitality vibe before photographing it.
Remember the cover photo of your Airbnb listing makes a promise to your future guests. Thus, your cover photo needs to look promising as well.
#3- Stand out from the crowd
As we said, countless Airbnb already listed before yours are doing fantastic in your area. However, the goal is to stand out and outshine the other Airbnbs in your area.
While highlighting the unique aspects of your Airbnb, you cannot just afford to add anything, and everything like your competitors added.
You need to check out what makes the other Airbnbs trending. Examine your space and create a subtle comparison without naming them in your cover photos. This will give your future guests a hint on why they should choose your Airbnb over others.
#4- Make a Visual Impact
Your cover photo should be impactful enough to make the users click on your listing and check out your Airbnb profile. Ensure that the cover photo is of high resolution that can easily attract a maximum number of clicks in the list. This way, you can leverage the most beautiful cover photo you have of your Airbnb and attract multiple clients for the upcoming months.
Final Thoughts
It's time to go through your existing Airbnb cover photos now. Pull up your listing and check out your cover photo to whether it adheres to the steps mentioned above or not. If yes, you are going to witness guests booking your Airbnb soon. If not, you need to improvise your cover photo as soon as possible. You can either click a completely new image and add it to your cover photo or choose another one from your listing. More often than not, the ideal photograph for your Airbnb is sitting within your listing and just needs to be promoted as the cover photo.
