Revenue Maximization of Airbnb Marketplace using Search Results
[article]
2019
arXiv
pre-print
Correctly pricing products or services in an online marketplace presents a challenging problem and one of the critical factors for the success of the business. ...
Offline evaluation results show that our strategy improves upon baseline pricing strategies on key metrics by at least +20% in terms of booking regret and +55% in terms of revenue potential. ...
On the other hand, the marketplace also leverages the signals about the inferred product value when surfacing products to buyers who are searching, i.e. in product recommendation and search ranking algorithms ...

Differences in user satisfaction between the lists is negligible, and not statistically significant. ...
The Revenue Maximizing setting: In this case the goal of the recommender system is to maximize the expected revenue, e.g. by recommending expensive items. ...

And then, we design an explicit ranking function by incorporating the calibration fac-tor and price-squashed factor to maximize the revenue. ...
In particular, our proposed methods perform better than the state-of-the-art methods with regard to the revenue of the platform. ...
We also explored the ranking functions, both implicit and explicit ones, to maximize the revenue in sponsored search. The methods are deployed on two production platforms. ...

In addition to the consumer stakeholder, we also consider two other stakeholders; the suppliers who provide the goods and services for sale and the intermediary who is responsible for helping connect consumers ...
Lastly, we should note the work on revenue optimization in sponsored search, in which the dual problem of placing ads relevant to the customer while maximizing revenue of the platform is approached [11 ...

By establishing an optimal price point, they can maximize overall revenue and profit for the platform. ...
In this paper, we propose a novel machine learning and optimization technique to find the optimal price point at an individual product level. It comprises three major components. ...
Now we need to choose one of these three prices such that the net revenue is maximized. Given 3 different price points and N products, there will be 3 N permutations in total. ...

Advertisers express their willingness to pay for each keyword in terms of bids to the search engine. ...
The advertiser only pays the search engine when its ad is clicked by the user and the price-per-click is determined by the bids of other competing advertisers. ...
We also obtain the final revenue for the search engine to be Πse(σ) = 122, 032.85, which is 99.07% of the social optimal ...
