Airbnb & Short-Term Rental Listing Optimizer
Version: 1.0.0 Category: Real Estate / Hospitality / Marketing License: MIT-0 Author: max_0x1
What This Skill Does
Turns raw property details into a fully optimized short-term rental listing that ranks higher in Airbnb and VRBO search, converts browsers into bookers, and automates guest communication — all without hiring a professional copywriter.
Four-prompt system:
| # | Prompt | Output |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Listing Headline + Description (FREE) | 10-word hook title + 400–500 word SEO description with neighborhood story, amenity highlights, and STR-specific keywords |
| 2 | Photo Caption Bank | 15–20 captions keyed to room/feature, each with an emotional hook and conversion line |
| 3 | House Rules + Guest FAQ | Platform-formatted house rules (Airbnb/VRBO compliant) + 10-question FAQ that pre-empts 90% of guest questions |
| 4 | Automated Guest Message Templates | 6-message sequence: booking confirmation, pre-arrival, check-in day, mid-stay check-in, checkout reminder, post-stay review request |
