With almost every listing I try an experiment. I use my normal online marketing and I add something new. If it works, or helps sell the listing I keep using it. I found this site a few weeks ago for making guides and decided to try it. It is called Guide Spot.

Very easy to use, I didn't need to read any instructions. I can take my photos and put them on maps. For some of the local attractions there are already descriptions written which saves some time.

The only problem I had is when I tried to add new addresses, they didn't always show up in the right place on the map.

Home buyers like pictures, and want more pictures. This gives me a way of showing what the home looks like and the neighborhood, and one more place to use the photos I take. Check it out and try it on one of your listings.

I liked th way you tied the slide show into the blog with the still photos. The walking score was a neat add on as well. What slide show have you been using? Thanks for the tip. I did use the postelets on a blog and also got a nice effect. www.neworleanscondotrends,com . Take a look. Thanks for the info.

That's really cool Teresa...yes, thank you for sharing!  Putting listings up online keeps getting to be more and more work...if we're not working for our marketing fees putting homes up on more than 50 websites...I don't know what working is!  Whew.
