Just the snipit about Trulia disallowing google to follow links back to my website is enough for me to stop spending time on Trulia. I'm all about research, but somehow just bought into all this without even questioning Trulia's viability. I'm web savvy and just saw it as an SEO shortcut. It's not, by any means.

I see you have a blogpress blog.  Is this in your own domain?  Even if it is, what happens if blogpress changes the rules?  Isn't your blog published with blogpress programming and subject to blogpress continuing to service the blog? I'm asking because I don't know and I want to make my short sale blog MINE... not ActiveRain's, not Realtor.com's, not Blogpress'. I agree that you should have your own content on your own blog, but…

This is good information, but I am wondering if you have found any sites that are worth using? What is your critique of Homes.com. It's a portal that is designed for the consumer, but at the same time offers Realtors the opportunity to brand themselves, promote thier listings and even create traffic to the Realtors' site. It appears to be a service which is upfront with the Realtors and has a month to month contract. Some Realtors just don't have the time or knowledge to promote their own sites. Many Realtors even go as far to use their own names as their domain name. Not much help to the search engines. Advertising is important and print ads that just don't have the kick of years gone by. What portals do you feel offer value? No Time or Knowledge to Create Your Owne Website, The Next Best Thing is?
