    Here's some of my top numbers from this month:

    65 Stumbleupon
    42 REW Blog
    29 Squidoo
    19 Swicki

    Looking back over the last few months, nothing really competes with my REW Blog for true clients. I have gotten a few calls from some of the others, Squidoo for instance. I'm trying to get in the habit of questioning folks more about how they found me.

    OK so I do spend time on AR, I have syndicated a few posts on REW. I know that blogging can generate some great leads. I personally know a mortgage broker that is closing 10 loans a month just from blogging. I must say that I am still in the infancy stage, but growing. I will continue on AR and explore REW a little more.

    By "Sydicating" do you mean copy pasting a duplicate of your article in two spots? That is not syndicating, and not advised.

    I get more traffic from rew than any other social site, but I attribute that to members viewing the site.

    I have closed a few deals for AR. Localism is fair and City-Data has been pretty good for the last few months. I don't post enough on REW to give it a fair chance.

    REW seems to have very good "authority" with Google. Several of my blog posts rank first page in Google and generate some traffic.

    Has anyone been using the new Realtor.com blogs - talk.realtor.com ? They do not seem to have as much juice as REW yet.

    You have to apply to be featured on the r.com domain. The "free" blogs they give out are on featuredblog.com - which has no pop whatsoever.
