How to Move Zillow Rental Ads Back Onto the Crucial First Page

Hello Nation,

The local Zillow rental listings have the drop by 90 percent once you fall to the second page, which takes two days -three days if very slow weekend listing traffic but few calls on weekends compared to weekdays anyway. 

How can a person bump their listings (also called updating them) back up again?

I see property management companies doing it regularly, with their same listings. I don't mind the fee, especially as Zillow is the category-crusher of  other rental sites and I"m not going to change that. 

If not rented in two days, you're done - and the setting a mutually agreeable appointment time, showing, getting applications filled out/returned and credit checks takes that long alone. 

Changing the availability date or language in the copy hasn't done anything that I've noticed either. I'm at a loss- thank you.
