Point 2 Agent sites.....

OK, I admit it, I am a Realtor not a webmaster. It's all I can do to keep twittering, blogging, Facebooking AND stay on top of my real estate acitvities...

WHEW!

My website www.WendySmithRealEstate.com has been evaluated and re-evaluated. The first thing the evaluators always point out is that my site uses frames and that, I have learned, is not a good thing.

I've been with my host for years and hate to have to leave but these frames are thwarting my online efforts. [enter big sigh]

Point2Agent seems to be a good platform and I used to use to have a freebie site. It was OK, after all it was free.

Now, I am re-visiting Point2Agent.com as a platform. I thought there was an ActiveRain group dedicated to Point2Agent websites ...

I am hoping to find someone or a company that will transfer my old site to a new Point2 site without it costing me an arm and a leg.

Anybody out there that can do this?

Thanks in advance.

Experience Is Your Advantage

Hi Wendy, when I switch platforms I have someone on the new platform walk me through the steps.

It matters to us as much as it matters to you.

I do have a minimum Point2 subscription. I don't devote the time to it that it needs. Most of my time is devoted to my Keller Williams site. I do know people that have the Professional Point2 site and do very well with it capturing many leads. None of it works without devoting a lot of time or money. It is up to you to decide what is more expendable.

Wendy,

It all depends on what you're after. I think the KW and Point2 sites are great place for agents to start. If you're really thinking about getting serious, you might want to check out what Blog Tomato has going.

They do wordpress sites and I've been impressed with the results they generate for people who don't have the time or knowledge to do custom sites.

A true custom site that you own will always give you the largest control over the direction and development but it's also going to cost you.
