The unusually hot Travel House Short-term leasing website Airbnb The current development speed is still swift and violent. Airbnb, co-founder and CTO Nate Blecharczyk, said in a speech at the Y Combinator Entrepreneurship Forum that Airbnb has served 9 million of the total number of clients in the past 5 years.

In the first 4 years since its inception, the number of clients in the AIRBNB service was 4 million. That figure has soared to 9 million since the end of last year. This means that in the past 9 months alone, the number of Airbnb new services has increased by as much as 5 million, compared to the total number of clients served in the past 4 years.

Blecharczyk said that the development of AIRBNB is not always smooth sailing. In the first few years, Airbnb had been bothered by how to win the trust of users and the support of investors. How do you meet the needs of all users? How do you build a company that is interested in an investor? These are problems that AIRBNB must face in the first years of development. Airbnb was stumbling all the way to today.

Airbnb is also the company of Y Combinator incubation. In Y Combinator,airbnb learned some development advice that was vital to you. Paul Buchheit of Y Combinator's advice to Airbnb is that instead of letting a lot of people "like" their own products, let a few people really "love" their products. Paul Graham's advice to Airbnb is that services should be refined to avoid trying to expand the user's size from the start. These suggestions have played an important role in the development of AIRBNB.

"The founders of startups must be resilient enough to keep trying, especially in times of adversity," Blecharczyk said in a speech. Everything seemed simple afterwards, but the journey was really tough. "This is also blecharczyk to those who are walking in the entrepreneurial way people's words."
