    Default Off Website Blogs

    Which sites do you currently have blogs on. Please list as I am trying to have blogs everywhere just cause.

    REW,
    BLogger,
    Active Rain,
    Wanna Network,

    Then I have a blog attached to each of my 2 sites. Anyways I would love to see where everyone else has blogs as maybe we could find some new places to start blogs and give ourselfs some easy backlinks and extra exposure.

    I can help you find houses for sale in Houston and also write at this blog dedicated to real estate technology for agents. I originally created this Houston Real Estate site and switched to REW - awesome decision.

    REW
    AR
    WP hosted on its own domain (alpharetta-real-estate-blog.com)
    WP hosted on its own domain (atlantarealestate-homesforsale.com)
    WP hosted on my website

    I have two more domains that I was thinking about popping some blogs on, but, I just don't know if I can write that much.

    atlantarealestateinc.com
    atlanta-luxury-real-estate.com

    Good domain names, but, I am only one person.

    I have (don't know if this question applies to me, as I am not a real estate agent...) blogs at:

    REW
    Blogspot
    Myspace
    WP

    I think there's one more? I don't know... I will have to search around.

    Myspace thats a good one to add to my list. I have been meaning to add a real estate page to myspace, I could include a blog as well.
    Anyone else have other places you can get a free blog?

    You could always make an account at Facebook. Start a Real Estate group for your area and have people join. Kind of like a blog... more like a gated community.

    I'd advise against myspace. It's not the sort of community you really want to involve yourself in, not to mention the page is strewn about with more ads then a nascar vehicle.

    Facebook is where you want to go. It's more of an 'older' crowd (it started off, by required a college email to get in. If your college wasn't on their list, you couldn't make an account). You even have politicians on it.

    Currently I use WP, and Top Producer. I'm looking towards getting into REW, and Active Rain soon.

    But can MySpace.com really HURT you? It just seems like one extra resource to me. It has its cons... IE. It will be harder to manage... but I don't think it could hurt you.

    Well, I know me and some other peers look down on it

    When you think myspace, what do you think of?

    It has no penalties to SEO. I would just be careful who I gave my myspace link out too

    Not to mention, you will get around 5-20 webcam girls trying to add you as a friend a day. Well, it depends on how cute/hot your picture is, but you get my point
    If you're not remembered, you never existed.
