Default Free RSS News Feed

Hello all,

Does anyone know if there is a free RSS feed for the US property market and would be allowed on a public facing web site?

We are also looking for UK, Asia, Aussie, Europe as well

Cheers

Marc

Hello,

Thanks for that.

In the time I posted my question and your reply we have built our own daily property news service. I was not impressed with any of the news services out in the market - though some had great content but charged too much for our budget.

So it was better to build.

Click Here if you are interested in what we came up with.

Cheers

Marc

Oh, I guess your orignal post was a little old!!!

Not bad! Prices aren't bad either. I know I was looking into Market Watch, and their content started at $1,000 a month. It was crazy!!!!

Maybe I missed something, but it looks like you were going to promote your own solution all along. What's "Free & Independent" about $40 a month?

Hello,

Thanks for the feedback. Yep we are free and independent - we are free to anyone who wants to read the property news, articles, participate in the forums and also submit their own articles for free marketing.

In fact all content on propertytalk.com is free.

The news service is providing the news on someone elses website not ours. We paid to have the service built and need to not only get our money back from paying for development but help run the website as well.

P.s - and yep when I posted the question I had no idea that I was going to spend quite a bit of money building my own news service.

Cheers

Marc
