Booking Leads and M

[Jason Graklanoff]

Hi all,

First time in the short term rental market and learning the ropes.  I have my property setup on AirBnB only right now.  I have also established a Google Business Page.  Seems like Google doesn't partner with AirBnB like they do VRBO, booking.com, and others so that means my property won't show up as a vacation rental with the "check availability" booking link on google maps or google web search. 

My question is....Is it worth it to setup a second platform like VRBO or another platform that Google partners with so I can get the exposure via Google maps search?  Or just stick with AirBnB only?  I understand Google continues to push into this space and disrupt the online travel agencies, so the landscape might be changing.  What are you all doing for online booking and search hits?

Thanks!

Jason
