Help me improve visibility for my new listing.

Please advice on how to improve visibility for my new listing.I recently added a second listing.I have tried searching general search in our city and it does not feature anywhere which leads me to believe i am not visible to guests searching for a place to stay. Your advice will be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Hello @Jacquelynn8  Have you been to see your listing on Airbnb as a guest sees it?  Your star photo that will determine if a guest clicks further is of a red curtain and nothing else!!  the other four are just as important and there are three more of curtains and one is blurred.   Guests want to see what is special and unique about your place at a glance and these I'm afraid are not doing that (unless you're into curtains of couse) The first one you put in your post shows a red curtain and a great TV but as a guest I would prefer to see the whole room and what type of bed is in that room.  If you need tips on how to photograph your listing, go the left hand side of the CC and click on Host Guides.  There are some great tips here but first go and preview your listing to see it as a guest.  Imagine yourself as an Airbnb guest looking for a room to stay That view of the balcony is beautiful and on your listing you even have one at twilight - now that should be in your top 5 pictures as should the bedroom!A bit of tweaking and am certain this will help you get bookings. Didn't take a look at your description, sorry am making dinner but again check that you are telling guests what's great about your place and what they can expect if they stay here!All the best Joëlle P.S. Please put the loo seat down!! Two discussions here this week on this subject alone and we all agree that loo seats do not look professional and are rather off putting for guests Please advice on how to improve visibility for my new listing.I recently added a second listing.I have tried searching general search in our city and it does not feature anywhere which leads me to believe i am not visible to guests searching for a place to stay. Your advice will be greatly appreciated.
