Latest tip
Your cover photo is your shop window.
Most guests decide on your listing before they read a single word. On Airbnb and Booking.com, your first photo is what they judge, so it has to be your best space.
- Lead with your best space: the view, the pool or your brightest room. Never the gate or the car park.
- Shoot in daylight, wide and level: blinds open, lights on, camera held straight.
- Check it at thumbnail size: find your listing in the search results on your phone. If it does not stop you scrolling, it will not stop guests.
