Skyrocketing Gas Prices Despite Record Crude Supply Levels - 02/25/12 08:07 PM
Last weekend I said, "Gas prices will hit $4 a gallon this week. Today, in Orange County the lowest price I saw was $4.25 a gallon. Later in Murrieta with a Vons member discount, I got a bargain at $4.16. 
While prices necessarily skyrocket, we wonder why and who's to blame. Ironically, Seth Kleinman of Citigroup, London said, "The US is choking on crude." (Bloomberg) US crude supply is higher than ever.
So what is our problem? Apparently, we don't have the proper infrastructure to deliver crude where it needs to go. Truck and rail continue to augment demand because government … (2 comments)

Steamboat Springs Real Estate | An Epitome of Lifestyle - 02/24/12 09:07 AM
Many communities are simply tracts of houses and lifestyle is something you have to define for yourself. One person is into boating, another- bicycling. The same diversity of interests is present in Steamboat too, but in Steamboat, unlike many communities, a unifying interest tends to pervade the town: snow. What its consistency is on the slopes, when the next storm will bring more and when the generously long season ends and starts. A town that gets up to 400 inches of Champagne powder per year.That one factor influences everything about Steamboat Springs, including its real estate and how homes are constructed, maintained … (0 comments)

Four Mistakes That Provoke The Panda | Real Estate SEO Avoiding Google Smackdown - 02/21/12 03:35 PM
Real Estate SEO is decidedly one of the most challenging and difficult types of organic search results to obtain success in for real estate websites. The 800 pound reason for this challenge is replication-- the high level of similarity between real estate websites in any market area. There are four primary areas where duplication hurts the effort of a real estate agent to rank above competitors in organic search results on Google.
Duplicate Content: the very nature of real estate creates a natural tendency toward duplicate content. If you are an agent in Anytown, You're guaranteed to be in competition with … (6 comments)

Overheard on The News - 02/14/12 05:30 PM
This morning I half listened to the news as I got ready to meet another day of challenges from creating quality links to creating quality content in my real estate SEO work. Then something caught my ear. Whether, when and how to extend two percent tax cuts, increase taxes, pay for them now or pay for them later. The thing that became apparent other than Obama saying this issue was (once again with a score of others) his "number one priority", was this: it is obviously a politica football slash hand grenade. Both sides from Republicant to DemocRAT are playing this … (1 comments)

Too Busy For Long Blog Posts? Google May Love You Anyway - 02/07/12 06:16 PM
Busy? That could be a good thing if you reflect it online. Especially true if you're a blogger who likes to get to the point and get there fast and frequently. Nobody likes a long winded talker and why should they like a long winded writer either?
Have you been struggling to make that magic number- the obligatory 300 or 500 or 600 word post? It may not be as valuable as creating something unique- even a first crack at a listing- a blog post about your property before you put it up on the MLS to be consumed by content aggregators?

Agents Taking Listing Photos - Counter Points To An AR Featured Post - 02/04/12 11:22 PM
A while back I wrote about this topic in  Five Tips on Great Photography (Not Expensive Cameras) not that great or even expensive equipment can't give you an even better edge, but it should never stop an agent from learning important photography techniques and using what is at their disposal to create a story that is enhanced as much as possible to engage buyers.

Phil Is A Punk - 02/02/12 09:07 PM
Phil does it again. He's prodded out of a hole, stuck in a holding cell and then released to see his shadow and doom billions of people in the northern hemisphere, at least the temperate zones, with six more weeks of winter.
Why do we put up with it? It's not even entertaining, not any more. We're tired of winter and some rodent badly in need of a diet or some more hibernation is given the opportunity every year is paraded out giving us a strong chance of having to burn more fossil fuels for heating.
I mean, can't we just stop … (0 comments)
