ASK AN AMBASSADOR:  How To Import Your Active Rain Posts To Wordpress
If you follow the path of many Active Rainers, you start off blogging here, and at some point you start a Wordpress website.  And for some people, they see the two as mutually exclusive, you either do one OR the other, and not necessarily both.
Personally, I see Active Rain blogging and our Wordpress site serving similar, but different purposes.  For me, Active Rain is heavily about the community experience, the sharing of learning, having fun, sending referrals.  Wordpress is more for the pure consumer prospecting with customized IDX searches and … (84 comments)

It's Finally Happening, Wordpress Site Overhaul
It's been on my personal To Do list for what seems like forever:  make our Wordpress site more user friendly and more focused on home searches.

Active Rain or Wordpress?
It's a question we've seen many times, and with Trulia's acquisition of Market Leader/Active Rain, a question we'll probably see more times.  People worry.  What's the future hold?  Will Trulia make many changes to Active Rain?  Only time will tell.
