How are the listings ranked? What does my listing 's quality score mean?

How to improve your Roomlala listing 's SEO

Several factors influence your listing 's ranking in search results. To be featured, your listing must have a quality score above 90% .

The quality of your listing : the main criterion

A clear and detailed description , free of errors, along with high-quality photos , is essential. You can check the quality rating at any time in your personal account, under “My Listings” . A dedicated page allows you to view all the criteria for improvement.

🔍 Each user gets personalized results based on their filters, preferences, and history.

Factors to consider to optimize your ranking

- Availability: the more dates your listing covers, the higher it will appear in the results.
A full calendar increases your chances of being proposed to more tenants.

- Regular updates: listings that are recently created or frequently updated (text, photos, calendar) are ranked higher.

- Pricing: the quality/price ratio directly impacts your visibility.
💡 By specifying the three rates (night, week, month), your listing will appear in more searches.

- Photos: an listing (and profile) with good photos is more visible and more attractive.

- Video: Adding a short video of the room or common areas increases your quality score by 10% , and significantly improves your position in the results.

- Response rate: the faster and more regularly you respond to requests, the more your listing is highlighted.
Failing to respond will negatively impact your visibility.
👉 Refusing a request has no negative impact — it's better to respond than to leave a message without follow-up.

- Cancellations: cancelling a confirmed reservation lowers your listing's ranking.

The popularity of your listing

Roomlala calculates a popularity coefficient based on:
- the number of applications received
- the number of views your listing has received
The more your listing is viewed and requested, the more visibility it gains.
Its attractiveness also depends on the quality/price ratio offered.
