I recently learned that search engines treat blogs differently than regular sites. Because blogs get updated so frequently, the search engines need to scan and index and rank them more often than a reqular web site. And I learned that including media content in your blog, such as video is even better for your ranking since this tends to be 'stickier' content.
Also, I've noticed that agents are starting to do more of their own video tours of their listings to attract more attention.
So I decided to jump in and try it out with my Blackberry Curve. The curve has a video feature built in that is ultra easy to use. I just put a memory card in the phone and basically just hit the record button and it makes a movie that can be easily uploaded to YouTube. Once the video is on YouTube, I can easily insert it into my ticortitlenw.blogspot blog or website.
With most people looking at saving pennies and getting more marketing mileage for less, I predict that more and more agents will be heading in this direction in the very near future. And why not? It's fun!
