When I started hosting, the telecoms consultant in me found the sharing economy shamefully exhilarating. Never take communication or bookings outside the Airbnb App.Make check-in smooth with automatic locks, directions and welcome SMS.Be thoughtful, a small detail can go a long way.Help your guests keep your space clean.Contact Airbnb immediately if you have any issues.You harvest what you sow, so give as you expect to receive.Trust the kindness of strangers, but make things clear and remind your guests of the rules.Make sure the time between bookings is reasonable and accounts for the unexpected.Make your listing stand out, but be honest and truthful.I wish I knew then what I know after over 100 guests, so I wanted to share my tips for hosting on Airbnb so that you can be a great host since day 1. Armed with little more than a friend’s experience and none of the Airbnb tips for hosts that I know today, I was mostly concerned about the risks and hopeful for the advantages.
“Welcome to the shared economy!” I thought to myself as I completed my Airbnb profile and listed my Spanish property in the tiny town of Sitges, 30km south of Barcelona in 2013.
