Udnyt fordelene ved din værtsprofil

Gæster har fortalt os, at de gerne vil vide, hvem de deler boligen med, før de reserverer et værelse. Din værtsprofil kan hjælpe dig med at præsentere dig selv og afstemme forventninger med potentielle gæster.

Din værtsprofil er det, gæsten ser af din Airbnb-profil. Dit navn, antal år som vært, din stjernebedømmelse og antal gæstevurderinger vises øverst. Det efterfølges af eventuelle personlige oplysninger, du gerne vil tilføje, som f.eks. dit arbejde, hobbyer, sprog, sjove fakta, navnet på dit kæledyr, og hvad der gør ophold i din bolig til noget særligt.

Gæster kan se dele af din værtsprofil i søgeresultater for værelser. De kan trykke på dit billede for at se hele din profil. Gæster kan også få adgang til din profil via dit opslag.

Prøv disse tips til at tage et billede, der giver et godt første indtryk.

Your host profile helps you start building rapport with guests. Learning that you share a common interest, line of work, or taste in music creates a sense of familiarity.

“The host doesn’t have to be my best friend, but they should be someone who I feel good sharing a space with,” says Stacey, a guest based in Oklahoma City. “Their profile humanizes them and helps set the tone for the visit.”

Getting more details upfront also helps guests decide whether your place is a good fit for their travel needs, while saving both of you time and energy. “It cuts down on messaging back and forth and makes booking even easier, because my questions are already answered,” Stacey says.

Chris, a Superhost in Macon, Georgia, uses his host profile to break the ice with guests. “I’m a quiet person, and it’s helped me open up more,” he says. 

In his profile, Chris notes that he’s a retired athlete who played football for 2 historically Black universities. He also shares that he:

• Spends too much time golfing
• Was born in the ’80s
• Provides a coffee bar for guests

Taking the time to give guests a bit more to go on before they book your room can help match guests who have similar interests and routines.

As guest Stacey notes, “If I read that the host ‘spends too much time’ singing karaoke, I know they’re going to expect a different kind of guest than a host who ‘spends too much time’ home binge-watching Netflix.”
