Does your website have an RSS Feed? All the 'cool kids', or should I say, technologically savvy real estate agents have added the capability to their website. I thought I'd take a minute to educate us technology 'slackers'...
The initials "RSS" are used to refer to the following formats: "Really Simple Syndication". Sounds simple right? Okay, well it is a little harder than they make it sound, but overall, not too hard to accomplish.
A RSS feed or 'web feed' is fancy lingo for updated text and regularly published documents LIKE OUR BLOGS. Having a feed burner, aggragator or RSS feed capabilities on your website allows readers to subscribe to your blog and the information will be 'fed' to their desired location, in most cases a google, msn, aol, or yahoo home page for their convenience.
This is great for real estate agents because you can syndicate your publications quickly and automatically to all of the people who want your information, without any extra work!!
Most of you 'cool kids' probably know this, and subscribe to numerous feeds already to save yourself time by receiving AUTOMATIC updates. For you 'slackers' like myself, it appears there is a great benefit not only to us, but our clients and consumers. We should 'get with the program' !
