Optimize YOUR Bnb: The Definitive Guide to Ranking #1 in Airbnb Search by a Prior Employee

Danny wrote a great book on how to not only optimize your listing, but to place, and keep your Airbnb listing at the highest efficiency, make it highly automated (so you can have a life) and also most profitable. Some of the things in the book, i had kind of figured out on my own.... but mostly, it was filled with plenty more great ideas and nuggets of info that have improved my listing, far beyond what i would have figured out on my own. It probably took Danny just as long, but that's why we're getting a book filled with his past 5-10 years of experience; so hopefully we can do it in 5-10 months. I have changed a ton of things on my listing and directly used some of his verbiages for some of the less specific kind of categories. I would say i changed something in every single one of the categories. It looks better, and it reads much better too. I liked all of the tips for Low Season as the majority of places have them typically. That is my next project as we are in the heart of the low right now. I also reached out to Danny by email and he was super quick to respond to each email. This guy has dedication and a great work ethic. I'd invest in his start up :) Thanks Danny

First, there is a lot of info out there. So much, that it can be overwhelming. I read the 1 and 2 star reviews, and I have to disagree with them. (I can easily overlook typos, yes there are a few, no biggie!) I mainly disagree because he worked for Airbnb. He has great insider knowledge as to how the listings are ranked etc. Some of this is no brainier info, but some of it was eye opening to me. My occupancy is way down right now. This book gives clear and concise advice on different strategies that can help my issue. As far as it only pertaining to Airbnb, as one reviewer pointed out, that is in the title of the book. Airbnb is an entity, not a generic term. Generic would be "vacation rental." I decided to sit down in my local coffee shop and read a couple of chapters to try and get my listing optimized. Well, I'm in chapter 12 and suddenly feel as if I can optimize my listing using some of the strategies in Rusteen's book. Pricing has been a huge stressor for me, and I really think I can utilize his advice here and up my occupancy. Maybe I'll find a book on VRBO next, but one step at a time I suppose. Thanks Daniel for helping out the newbies and the seasoned!

I can't get enough of Daniel's information, I read his books, listen to his YouTube channel and follow him on Instagram! He just gives so much useful information without all the fluff. He gets right to the point and is concise! I have one Airbnb and am considering buying another. He gives great advice on how to search for the most profitable investment. I love the book with the large font and pictures too.

Daniel's info is ALWAYS spot on, super valuable! I love both his books--this was my original intro to his methods. Get both books--you'll learn a ton!

Great overall structure, scope, and material. Sad thing about this book is the editing, it's terrible. It won't affect your read for the most part (unless typos and grammar messes bug you). It also does appear, in some parts, to be a series of blogs that were really never combed over for professional publishing. Kind of strange considering this book probably sells well. Regardless, this is a very useful and helpful read. Recommended (mostly).

We manage over 50 properties in Baja California Sur, Mexico and this book has been an excellent resource on how to outstand our listings in a growing market like ours. Lots of airbnb's are daily appearing in our city where there are no current regulations as in other countries. So how can we be competitive vs lower rates and owners who haven't done an operational analysis cost that is costing them money without them knowing it? How can we compete AND excel our customer service? This is our daily challenge. And we found the answers and additional tools in Danny's book. Reading it is quick and easy and makes a lot of sense based on personal experiences. I had my doubts about applying them in a different country but I could see results not only in bookings but also attracting the kind of guests our client's homes needed and the reviews that help us sell the unique experience our homes can offer (we are getting close to 300) and guest who leave a great feedback to us. This is what we pursue in the end. I usually take screenshots that I can share with my team about innovative ideas or things I can follow up and improve on our properties. I'm happy to recommend this book for anybody who's looking forward to improve their hosting experience. Results and reviews will come your way.

This is another great book of Danny's that I purchased. My wife and I use this book as an awesome go to reference guide in case we experience an issue, have a topic on our mind, or with the Airbnb platform - Danny's book has been invaluable. Highly recommend to new or existing hosts!

This was a great book! Full of simple to implement ideas that helped me to grow my Airbnb to much more revenue and attention. AND it was out early enough to make a difference. I DO highly recommend this book and for more AND more Importantly DO Get the next book. This guy absolutely Knows his stuff about Airbnb and Short Term rentals. Way ahead of the crowd now w/great experience! GET IT - Also available on Audible for those of us who are busy but drive alot (Property Mangers) and Owners too.

Very informative book!

This is THE BEST comprehensive guide for any host doing short term rental. It is now considered a standard MUST READ in the industry. You'll get tons and tons of great tips/techniques and you'll earn back your book purchase money like crazy. You'd be crazy to pass on this one. Thank me later.

Des 8 livres que j'ai Lu sur le sujet c'est le seul qui vaut son pesant d'or. Les autres auteurs ne pense't à leurs livres que comme un produit d'appel pour des formations pauvres ou des abonnements inutiles. Avec ce livre vous appliquez pas à pas et faites une découverte à chaque page. Ce livre est bourré de bon sens et Renvoi toute l'expérience de l'auteur. Un plaisir à lire au quotidien. Merci pour tout... Seul bémol: les références ne sont pas actuelles, datent de la publication soit 2018. Du coup les liens ne sont pas à jour.

Great book, lots of valuable information, insight, tools & tips! 10/10 would recommend if you are starting out on your Airbnb journey.

I recommend this book to ANYONE who is going from scratch with their Airbnb listings. As a previous superhost who started hosting again, I’m actually blown away by the before and after! My profit margin is wildly different, last night I got a premium priced booking for nine months into the future, and best of all it only took me half a day to implement and set it all up. I highly recommend paying for his copy paste scripts on the website too- well worth it.
