If the link leads you to an ‘area search’, that means the user removed their listing from Airbnb, likely after having booked their place for the Super Bowl. Often, these are people who _only_ listed their place for the Super Bowl, a trend we expect will continue around other big events.
We analyze the market throughout the day, and on each pass, remove these listings from our results page. In the mean time, those ‘area searches’ illustrate the speed at which vacation rentals are booking for the Super Bowl!

- fudged71 12y agoI'm really interested in the methods used to create this service and the learnings about rental behaviors associated. I'm also interested how this model might be able to scale to other cities and times to provide a continuously evolving model of price trends and predictions for goods and services. The website is more or less algorithmic "magic" wrapped in a pretty UI, and I was hoping that you might have a blog post linked somewhere on the site so that I could read more about it.
- akitchell 12y agoYep - agreed. We're a relatively new team, so there is a lot more to come. Our larger goal is around making a lot of data accessible and actionable for owners everywhere. Stay tuned!
