Here are my top questions to ask IDX real estate website providers Check out this list:
1. Do they allow you control over the meta description and meta keywords for your home page and all subordinate area pages
(they'll give you crap about keywords but every other website still uses them)
2. Do they allow you to create unlimited subordinate area pages without having to pay extra or go through their developers?
3. Do they have a query-striing URL structure ?
www website com/city=Dallas&Bedrooms=3&MaxPrice=500000
(example. I took the dots out of the URL so it wouldn't convert to a hyperlink)
4. Do they have sample sites they've deployed that have good organic traffic that you can review?
5. What percentage of their client's traffic comes from paid ads vs organic?
Start with these. I'd *LOVE* to know the answers you get from the different providers you encounter.
