Listing option in Active Rain...
listings
Just like all of my techie blogs for Active Rain if you already know this don't mind me! But I had one of those ah ha moments the other day thanks to my friend Trena.... You know you can look at something all the time see it everyday but have no idea what you are missing.



How many of you have clicked on the link on your home page that says “Listings”?  You might be surprised what you might find there! We all “blog” about our listings, at least that is what I do. But I had no idea there was a place to put in a listing...

So I went through the steps, that were extremely easy, and BAM I had a listing on Active Rain. You must be wondering what the difference is, right? Why not just blog about them??

When a potential client comes to your local page, if you would like to try it you MUST be logged OUT, they see the blog roll for the public in that area and to the left of that there are listings posted. Who’d a thought?

A little tip about this when you upload your photo of the front of the home it looks like you are done.  Click upload again and keep adding photos that way so that you have a collection.  I thought at first glance that if I uploaded more then it was going to replace the first but it does not.  

So there you go my friends, who did not know about this feature, go now and add your listings!!

Well, I see you are continuing your path of educating and helping out your fellow ActiveRainers.  Do you ever get tired of being so darn nice?  Please say no, I'd hate it if you quit!

Melissa, thanks for reminding me to input them.  I think that they stay up there for only a limited amount of time (two weeks?) and then are no longer visible unless you reinput them.

Great, I was not aware of this feature. I think anytime you can put your listings somewhere it is beneficial. Thanks for sharing.

Melissa, I went to my "Home" page and clicked on Listings and nothing happened. Then I went to my "Profile" page and clicked on Listings and found what you were talking about. Thanks for the tip.

Melissa, if I give you free room and great food (well okay food - I'm a fairly good cook) would you come here and spend a day with me?  You've learned so much and are teaching me so many things about the computer - far more than I know about just turning the computer on and off, that's for sure!!!

Melissa,

 

I kinda knew this was around. Just didn't know any specifics until I read your informative post. Thanks
