It's a simple question(s)....right?

Where does search start and end? 

In multiple inquiries, is a consumer more likely to go to Realtor.com (who states that 75% +/- of all consumers start searching online before they buy property) or to a search engine?

When we say consumers are more tech savvy, does this mean they search keywords AND/OR blogs?

I would love to know the percentages of those who, after they started thier first search, go about it the same way a second or third time...or if when they go back online a second or third time, they go straight to a branded source. (Like Realtor.com or Trulia.com)

Do you search for "collectable antiques" or go straight to eBay?

Simple for me. 

When looking for a referral agent, I go to ActiveRain, e-PRO, Google in that order.

When looking for antiques, I go driving to local antique shops.  If I want Chinese antiques, I go to Luban in Frederick. 

I don't use R.com or EBay.

Thought provoking. I'm a Googler which provides most blog returns. I, too, would like to know the answer to how many go directly to a branded source. Good posting!
