Blogging

Consumers and search engines love real estate blogs.
So, blogging is an easy way for you to establish yourself as an industry expert in a local, regional, or even national level. And it’s one of the best ways to truly connect with your customers without continually making sales calls and sending e-mails. Most other real estate websites don’t even offer blogging. With XSites, it built in, and completely free.

Blogging is an awesome creative release because you can do and say anything you want. And you know… pictures say a thousand words. So you can use as many pictures and graphics in your posts as you want, and you can post as many times as you want.

Unless you live in REALTOR® paradise, you’re interrupted every few minutes to handle a huge crisis. With XSites blogging, that’s no problem. Just save your work and come back anytime to finish your blog and post it to your site.

Undo your previous blog posts
Mistakes happen. Whether you accidentally left out a word or two or had a 2:15 am post that just didn’t make sense the next day, it’s easily fixed. You can always go back and edit your posts, or even remove them completely if you want.

Turn your readers into clients
Since you’ll have the best blog posts and the most information, you’ll have tons of people checking out your blog on a daily basis. XSites let’s your regular readers subscribe and with XSellerate you can automatically send an e-mail to your subscribers whenever you update your blog.

Build your own blogging community
Once you’re up and blogging you’ll have instant access to tens of thousands of other real estate bloggers through the XSites Network. You can reach out and link to other agents, mortgage pros and appraisers to have the industry opinions on your market or the industry around the country. Your real estate blogging community will be great for nationwide referrals and getting industry advice.

You’re in complete control
When your blog increases in popularity, you’ll have tons of traffic to your site, and several people commenting. Unfortunately, some will take advantage and post inappropriate content. That’s why you have full control over comments by users. If you find disparaging comments, removing them is as simple as clicking the delete button.

Set your blog alarm
