Make sure all your listings are on GOOGLE MAPS!

Make sure all your listings are on GOOGLE MAPS!  I was lucky enough to catch Missy Caulksblog on the newest feature for real estate.  I knew this was coming but missed the grand opening.  Well, of course there are still obviously bugs to be worked out between Google and the sites that are syndicating to it.  Of course many of us will have multiple sites feeding to Google but, I suggest going and making sure all of your listings are at least on the map once.  Being with Coldwell Banker our national site is feeding to Google but, Listhub is back filling along with Postlets.com.

 Now all the listings are obviously still it seems uploading.  I have some listings with pictures and some with maybe just two of the syndicated sites feeding the listing. 

More info on Google Maps Listing

So I would rush right out and make sure you listings are all being represented.  By the way Postlets.com is working to resolve the issue with the pictures on some of my listings.  I am sure it is just a time issue of uploading all of that data.

 So rush right out and check those listings to make sure we are all covered.  I am going to be sending out links to my clients just so they know that they are on public Google.

Jon,

Well yes there is a lot on all our plates but, just find the time to check your listings when you can.  I cheated and checked a few then delegated it to my admin.

John,

Yes as Google rolls this out to the public and starts to make them aware we need to already be there waiting on them to come to us.

I just took the Active Rain University class and was stunned to learn about the Real Estate tools in Google Maps.  I thought I was up on everything in RE technology, but I missed this one entirely.  Not anymore!

Larry, I think I read about this and then it just buzzed by - there is so much new stuff thrown at us constantly. But this is important, going to check it out to be sure all our listings are on there. Thanks for the reminder!
