A private ceremony to bury an old friend, a Maine real estate website on life support, gasping, wheezing and over extended.
A carry over of dial up days. Pushed in to service way beyond its original design, purpose.
Before the funeral happens which is just days away, last year I witnessed, guided the birth of what we call the blue site Own Maine Real Estate.
The funeral is for the veteran Mooers Realty Best Of Northern Maine Real Estate red site.
The domain for the red ME real estate site way too powerful to park in a dark garage with no windows, no ventilation and pungent mothball smell.
But before the new and improved red site is plugged in, put on line to start round the clock transmission using video, blog posts, more than one blog platform, area imagery, and time, gas saving real estate copy all pulled together. Plus with a slow IV drip healthy dose, big helping injection of dyno tested links.Like NASA, real estate website hose clamps checked, rechecked.
Turn your head and cough physicals from all angles to check for leaks, shorts, rough sharp seam edges of components and modules for the real estate star ship. Before we leave Internet space dock, go live, shift in to hyper speed so real estate buyers dropping in don't get bored, frustrated or flit. So the answer to the question was the on line experience "good for them" is yes. Thank you very much. And I'm be back for more. Be sure to tell all my family and friends that your new Maine real estate site rocks.Is a buffet of information and well worth the price of admission.
With currency paid in only the the real estate buyer's time.
Why two real estate websites?
Actually Maine Listing Mooers Realty and our Simple Living in Maine Tumblr site should be added for auxiliary rides too.
Not just two when instead of betting on one roulette marketing marble you want a whole handful of them.
Because it's all about impressions and to the niches, hang outs on line where each and every demographic filtered group live.
And instead of showing up in one top spot on a search engine index, the goal of the game is to introduce a handful of marketing marbles to tick tick tick.
Then silence.
Landing on several red white and blue color slots in the gambling game of life and real estate.
I still like playing with marbles, the real estate marketing kind.
So back to the funeral arrangements for the red site and from the ashes a Phoenix rebirth.
A new cyber on line real estate full service office opened 24/7. Still in the back delivery room working on the project a section at a time. All dove tailed in to the regular action packed Maine real estate day activities of taking listings, trotting to closings.
You're on the funeral list to be the first to know, will be getting an announcements to pay your last respects. But also see unveiled, gawk at the sleek new chassis parked, bolted on the suspension of the same host, same domain that's been around since 1998.
That's has logged millions and millions of hits, page views. But like an orbiting satellite has outlived its original utility, service purpose. It is soon time to pull the bird down.
Replaced it with a full blown, totally equip ed for the novice or black belt operation real star buyer a cruiser that will run circles around the old site. But have an established blue site NASCAR drafting partner to tag team with our new red and other sites working hard out in the cyber field.
