Survey shows what attracts travelers to North American property pages
The results of a recent TripAdvisor study reveal that North American properties saw a rise in owner engagement based on how many reviews, visuals and management responses there are on their TripAdvisor pages.
Reviews
Having more reviews positively affects traveler engagement.
- Accommodations with 11+ reviews see 26% more engagement than those with fewer reviews
- Accommodations with 50+ reviews see 27% more engagement than those with 10 or fewer reviews
Management Responses
The more you respond, the better. Properties that write management responses also tend to have higher ratings.
- Accommodations with more than 5 management responses see 10% more traveler engagement than those with less than or equal to 5 responses
Visuals
Travelers are drawn to photos and videos – adding visual content can have a big impact!
- Accommodations with 30 or more photos have 41% more engagement than those with 10 or fewer photos
- Accommodations with at least one video have 34% more engagement than properties without a video
To add or update photos and videos, go to the “Manage your TripAdvisor page” section of your Management Center.

Hi there, Interesting stats, but can you define exactly what you mean by “engagement”? thanks!
Hi Daniel,
Thanks for the question! Engagement is determined by an increase of page views.
