In my market, the suggestions made bySmartPricing are way too low. I look at the beyond pricing.com price and the smart price and pick something in between. Part of the issue I have is that neither pricing tool knows what to do with a private floor with private bath that is not its own space.
In my experience, they donāt go below the minimum price that you set.
From what I heard Smart Pricing tend to work better for small markets than for the fully saturated ones.
Here is completely mismatch with what the prices should be.
I agree itās not a bad thing - I have also found listings in my area, as nice if not nicer than mine with a low price which would certainly attract me as a guest much more, but ultimately it is never that price! I donāt care either way, my prices are the same.
Letās add that this change on how guests see prices on the search page is still on Beta. I have seen the former version, a version asking the guests to fill their travel dates to get prices and another version showing not your base price but your lowest price offered (e.g āfrom 50usdā). I like the second version.
There are a lot of design changes in the site and we canāt be certain which of them will remain as current. Listingās reviews are part of other changes that keeps changing for me depending from where I logged in.
