From what I’ve seen, Airbnb’s algorithm definitely weighs multiple factors at once:Guest experience signals → reviews, star ratings, cancellations, complaintsListing engagement → clicks, saves, photos, how often people message after viewingHost behavior → response time, acceptance rate, cancellations, calendar accuracyBooking settings → instant book, cancellation flexibility, competitive pricingIf you’re firm on your cancellation policy but still want to rank high, it helps to:Keep response time under an hour.Refresh your calendar often (Airbnb pushes “active” hosts higher).Update photos or listing text every couple months so the system sees activity.Price competitively with nearby comps—dynamic pricing tools help.Push for consistent 5-star reviews (Airbnb rewards guest satisfaction the most).It’s not just about instant book or cancellation policy.
