I've been getting alot of questions lately about by last blog post that you can read here about my experience with getting listings crawled by Google. I want to thank everyone so much for the kind words, support and advice. about 10 days ago I was conviced that creating a "how to" video series was the best way to go, but after getting through the 4th hour of video I started asking myself if this would really be practical for the every day agent that wanted to use this technology. Would everyone be able to set up something like this?? The answer was clear. After getting some advice and support from many agents around the country, I decided to head in another direction.
So, I'd like to officially introduce you to a system we are calling Property INDEXER. The video below will probably do a better job explaining it:
Also, if you're not familiar with the back story, make sure you click here to get caught up.
We are currently looking for Beta Testers in many different markets, please check out PropertyIndexer.com for more information and to sign up.
Justin, I don't have Diverse Solutions. I use Tiger Leads and love it. Can you pull a raw data feed for me from the Ann Arbor Board of Realtors and integrate it into my WP.org site?
Hi Justin, I like your pitch. Out our way I've noticed a couple of other agent sites that Google is indexing their IDX feeds. I'd love that too. I'm in Vancouver Washington and am open to a better IDX arrangement than that currently deployed. Thanks! John
I'll be setting up a Wordpress blog for my Point2Agent design clients in Colorado Springs in a few weeks after their next closing and will be contracting with you to install Property Indexer for them. I'm really excited to get this going!!!
I think you have a good product for agents who are looking for a solution to index properties in Google. But the best way by far is to have a system this is built from the ground up with SEF URLS. If you are wanting to keep your existing system I think this is a great bridge, however if you are just starting out and want a system that is turn key with all Indexed URLs, than you have to take a look at galtlinedesign.
Another thing to think about is how long Google will enable these properties to be indexed.
