Everyone blogs for different reasons. Sometimes its for strictly informational purposes, other times to share a personal experience or observation. Visitors often comment for the same reasons. I recently received a comment on our First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit post that I would like to share:

blogs: Kudos are great link bait - 12/20/07 08:17 PM
One of the things that seo experts talk about in blogging are different hooks. An effective hook is a great tool to gain links to your site. One of the oldest and still most successful is the ego hook. Recognition. We all like it. I mean, who doesn't like to be … (5 comments)

blogs: A new look - 11/06/07 12:39 AM
For the past several months, you may have noticed that we haven't been around too much. Since the end of summer, I've been working on our website, lvrealty.net. The new site was completed and moved to a Drupal based site over the weekend and is now live on our new host. … (3 comments)

blogs: The Best Posts Never Read Part 1 - 05/28/07 06:35 PM
Well here is the first version. I found so many good posts that deserved attention that I've decided to break it up into a weekly (or so depending) post, kind of like a week in review type of thing. If any of you have put out an exceptionally well written post, … (13 comments)

blogs: Looking for a guest blogger? - 04/26/07 07:02 PM
Lately I've been doing more posts on different blogs. My latest piece was on the evolution of the blog on rsspieces. In turn that piece inspired our on Toby Barnett to throw in his own two cents on the subject on the Seattle PI blog. Toby's post titled real estate websites … (1 comments)

blogs: Guest blogger - 04/09/07 05:15 PM
Recognition can be a wonderful thing, not to mention opening doors of opportunities. I had been talking to Mary McKnight of Rsspieces.com and eventually the conversation turned to the subject of guest bloggers. (if you haven't checked out her site, I highly recommend it).
I was fortunate enough to be offered … (6 comments)

blogs: My Blog Log - 12/26/06 06:24 PM
As I was sitting in the after glow of yet another very, Merry Christmas, I was checking on my various profile pages on different networks. One of my favorite sites (besides this one of course) is mybloglog.com. Think of it as a myspace for bloggers. I added my profile here, under … (5 comments)

blogs: Tagging your AR blog posts - 09/27/06 04:53 PM
Lately I've noticed that not all members are tagging their posts like they should. Some seem to overtag, others leave out important tags. Tags are a great tool to help a user find the information they are looking for. Another benefit to tagging your posts correctly is search engine rankings. Tags help … (10 comments)

blogs: Has AR taken over your life? - 09/22/06 04:42 PM
A comment by Ken prompted me to write this post. Has Active Rain taken over your life? Judging from the level of activity by some of the members, I would have to say yes. There are several people on this site everyday wihtout fail, adding new blog posts, posting in the … (17 comments)

blogs: More blog resources - 09/18/06 07:24 PM
I was looking around and came across this site, BlogShares. It has an unusual twist to it compared to the multitude of other blog directories and resource sites. It has a fantasy stock simulator, which allows to buy and sell "shares" in different blogs. Every blog entered is assigned a "market" … (4 comments)

blogs: Where to "blog" up - 09/06/06 08:33 PM
Bloging has taken the internet by storm, especially in the real estate industry. Almost every realtor that has a serious web presence has a blog. But are they doing them any good if no one can find them? I put together a short list of directories, forums and blogging tool sites … (5 comments)

blogs: Copyright reminder - 08/30/06 03:39 PM
It seems that the infringement issue is on the right track (or things are being posted from really obscure sources). Although I still see some old posts that should be removed by the poster, most of the blogs being put up are original content. There is something else I have noticed. … (10 comments)
