But much to my surprise, after spending a few short weeks on ActiveRain, I am popping up as the first three or four names on the first page of my search. Thank you Activerain and everyone here."

Leslie Berdahl (1st Stage Home Design) said about 4 hours ago,
"Active Rain helped me kick start my business! A realtor found me online and hired me for a vacant staging. The house sold and my business has been moving along ever since." 

Julie Ferenzi (CENTURY 21 Hometown): Real Estate Agent in Plainfield, IL Julie Ferenzi (CENTURY 21 Hometown) said about 23 hours ago,
"Within 4 months of blogging on Active Rain I had closed my first buyer in June of 2007. I worked with a couple that were first time buyers that did a search for "foreclosed homes" on the Internet. They ended up buying the first home they saw after looking at about 5 more later that week. I've also been contacted several times by the Chicago Tribune, the Wall Street journal and our local paper as a direct result of the content that I've written on AR. Blogging and the power of Active Rain work if you stick to it! It's not only a great tool to attract clients, it can be a great form of free advertising in the newspaper. There is real power in the influence of Active Rain and the Internet!"

Hi Jillian, A much better approach (and cheaper) than using AdSense. I tried that as they gave me $100. google money to use. Thanks to another post here, I kept a close eye on it, and within 7 days the $100.00 was gone! I have to check out the outside blog as mine needs sprucing. enjoy your weekend, jay
