Learning to Blog

Real Estate Agent with RE/Max Advantage, REALTORS - Beebe Capps Branch

On Friday , the 15th, our local board, Searcy Board of REALTORS, held a day of technology with Dick Betts. One of the many ideas that Dick presented was blogging. I had heard of it, I had heard of people "doing it". I had even seen it done but I never saw where it would be of any great benefit to us. But after Dick explained it and showed how it helps your web presence, I thought maybe I could "do it" too. I'm not much of a writer but I saw the real value in reading the blogs others have posted here and hope that I might have something worthwhile to say in future posts. So here I am, welcome me on board and look out fellow bloggers.
