532. Hosting Hotline: Does Renaming Airbnb Photos Actually Improve SEO?
About this episode
Should you rename your Airbnb listing photos with SEO keywords before uploading them? In this Hosting Hotline episode, Sarah and Annette break down when photo naming actually matters and when it doesn’t.
They explain how Airbnb and other OTAs interpret image data, why guest search behavior matters more than marketing adjectives, and how intentional photo naming can support long-term visibility and accessibility across platforms. This isn’t a shortcut or hack—but it is a smart, low-effort optimization that compounds over time.
If you’re serious about aligning your listing with how guests search, and helping platforms better understand what you truly offer, this episode is for you.
