How to write an Airbnb listing description that BOOKS
The ideal amount of words in your Airbnb listing is between 800 - 900 words. This is according to a study by Rankbreeze — the absolute expert in Airbnb SEO.
And because 900 words is a lot, I created a template that you can use to customize for your listing.
Be sure to look up keywords to include in this template. You can AirDNA or Rankbreeze’s for that — or, just have Rankbreeze do the analysis and write your listing description for you (which is what I always do).
