Exploring Airbnb

ARIA progressbar nodes must have an accessible name

The captured full-page desktop view shows the Photography and Chefs rows followed by two nearly entire viewport bands of blank white space. No loading, empty-state, or error message explains the gap.

Visible service cards show an average such as “5.0,” but none of the displayed cards include a review count. Many cards therefore present the same perfect score without indicating how much feedback supports it.

The Services page provides category shortcuts and separate rows, but the captured browse state shows no visible filters or sorting for price, rating, booking unit, or minimum spend. Photography alone presents prices from $60 to $600 using both per-guest and per-group units.

Page has no h1

ARIA hidden element must not be focusable or contain focusable elements

The initial desktop state is covered by a large modal that dims the question field, suggested topics, and article navigation. It promotes the same AI question experience already visible underneath and requires either “Try it now” or the small close control before users can access the page.

Visible page title is not a semantic heading

The desktop page opens with a very large video occupying most of the first viewport. The article title, summary, author, and explanation begin below it, so the page initially looks more like a video landing page than a time-sensitive service-fee guide.

The article says the deadlines are “September 15” and “October 13” without a year. As captured on September 16, 2026, the first date has passed, but the copy still presents both as upcoming deadlines and the CTA remains generic.

After explaining that hosts need to adjust prices, the only primary action is labeled “Get started.” Its label does not say that it opens the price-adjustment flow or distinguish it from starting to host.

The article says a $115 price with a 15.5% fee leaves the host earning $97. A later VAT example shows cents precisely as $97.60, but the initial calculation does not explain that its $97 result is rounded.

Under “Welcome a world of new customers,” the page highlights 390 million guests and $81 billion spent. The small footnote clarifies that the spending figure covers stays and experiences, not Airbnb Services specifically.

The visual category grid shows Catering, Chefs, Hair styling, Makeup, Massage, Personal training, Photography, Prepared meals, and Spa treatments, but no Nails category. Elsewhere in the supplied page content, Nails is listed as an included service.

A prominent “Get started” action appears at the top, while the review timeline, possible waitlist, licensing requests, insurance requirement, and 15% service fee are disclosed much later in the FAQ.

ARIA progressbar nodes must have an accessible name

The prominent header field uses only the placeholder “Start your search,” without naming jobs or suggesting searchable criteria such as role, team, or location.

In the “Open the door to your next role” section, the department links occupy a much narrower column than the neighboring cards. Only six department names are visibly readable in the captured area even though the card headline says there are 25 departments, and the navigation controls sit at the section’s lower edge.
