ActiveRain University Hit Router or How to Propel Traffic to Your Website

 

ActiveRain University logo



Bob Stewart, he does everything, taught another ActiveRain University class last week called ActiveRainTools.  I hadn’t taken this class before and was anxious to get those tools working for me.  I had no idea what tools we would be covering.

 

 

Bob told us he would be covering these topics:

Hit Router

Listings on ActiveRain

Referral network

Reblogging

Social Blog

Signature Line

Blog customization

Community Sponsorship

 

My first thought was that an hour is not going to be enough time to talk about all these things.  My second thought was what is a hit router?  I am only going to write about Hit Router in this post.  If you are interested in the other topics I suggest you go to ActiveRain University and sign up for the next class.

 

Evelyn Kennedy's Home Page on Active RainBob took us to the Hit Router site.  He said that the Hit Router is there to help propel traffic to your website.  It’s on your home page on the left side under the Blog section.  When you click on Hit Router you will see that there are three sections on Hit Router.

 

The free site is called My Markets and on the page above the city box it says “Route consumers to your sites for free when they search for home listings in your markets while viewing your profile, blog, or individual blog posts.”  The other two site are called Campaigns and Click Credits.  When you take the next ActiveRain University Tools class you will learn about the sections of Hit Router.

 

Hit Router Page My Markets on ActiveRainThe blank “city” box is where you will enter the city you want to drive traffic to your website.  Type in the each city and when you have selected each city you must enter your websites URL page where you have set your MLS information.  Be sure that your URL goes to listing information not just your website front page.

That’s all there is to it  Easy and hopefully, now I will get lots of traffic to my site.

Good information - thanks for passing this along.  I didn't know there was a free component - I thought all the hit router stuff was at a cost.  Now I know!

I need to take this class at AR University.  I've seen this hit router before but never knew what it was for.  Now I know and I can't wait to take full advantage of it.  Thanks for the heads up Evelyn.

Francine:  The free component is the best part. 

Taft Street Realty:  As I said in my blog, there is still stuff I am learning about on ActiveRain.

Doug:  Me too.  I am still learning about stuff on ActiveRain and the University class really do help.

Peggy:  If you have time take some of the ActiveRain University classes.  They are really helpful.  I hope the rain is not as heavy as is predicted.  I am going to be showing property at that time.  Take care.

Evelyn~I'm wondering if there is any advantage to me as an appraiser in using this feature? I'm trying to use AR to the fullest, and there is a lot to learn. Thanks! Have an awesome day!

Michael:  Call or email Bob Stewart.  I think he said something about advantages to those other than realtors, but I didn't catch what he said.  Sorry.

Ginny:  Thanks for your comment.  I use Jing which is a screen capture program.  The website is www.techsmith..com/jing  It is free and I use it all the time.
