I've been working on setting up a wordpress site for my personal real estate page. I purchased a domain and hosting space from bluehost.com and downloaded wordpress into my host. This process is simple. I started hunting around for themes, picked one out, set it up and then.....problems.
I wanted to use realshouts free IDX source for my home search on my site. Realshout is powered by googlebase and provides a nice option for a Realtor on a budget. Other IDX options can run in the range of 40.00 per month which isn't horrible considering a lot of personal pages do not include built in IDX. You could easily create a superior page for the same price as say as z57 page.
The problem is that the realshout plugin is not loading into my page correctly which means can't use it. Realshout is currently investigating their compatibility with bluehost to see if the problem lies within their hosting system or in something I did with my wordpress blog/site.
I'm sure they'll work it out. I'll certainly update my blog when I hear more. If they can't make it compatible I might have to pay for an IDX option.
Once I get everything setup I'll do some blogs about how and what I did.
