Snippets with Sorting

[RESteve]

When using snippets, do you think it would be useful for the user to be able to sort the listings from "highest first" or "lowest first" just like they are able to do in the regular IDX search?

For example: You place a IDX snippet of properties, and it defaults to "highest first". In the normal search, the user has the option to sort. In snippets, they don't.

Thoughts?

In my snippets if they are going to pull a large amount of results I have it pull the price range links to help the visitor sort on their own. It might be nice to offer them the "high to low" or "low to high" option as well.

I've wondered the same thing as I've played around with my LEC2 and wished that I could do the exact sort you're describing.

Do you have any feel for the percentage of buyers that use the snippets for home searches vs. going directly to the IDX?

I'm too new at this game (my LEC2 just went live two weeks ago) to be able to estimate the usage. But, if you think a large percentage are using the snippets for searching, I think a price sort would be really handy and the benefits would easily outweigh the relatively small (I'm guessing) cost.
