Is there a good free plugin map that can be added to Wordpress to allow searches within the San Diego area? If so, is there a way to add it as a widget to just one page so it does not appear on all of my pages?

What is the best way to ensure that if you provide a link to another website on your wordpress site that your site remains open? I have noticed that some sites take the visitor to their site directly and the only way back to my site is to use the back arrow key. While others open their site and leave my site open. I would prefer to have my site left open while the viewer previews the linked site. Thanks, Lance </p> http://webrealestatetools.com/realtor-forum/topic/why-choose-wordpress-the-self-hosted-version#post-8 Fri, 30 Oct 2009 14:32:35 +0000 Anonymous 8@http://webrealestatetools.com/realtor-forum/ <p>There are two versions of WordPress - both software platforms are free of charge</p> <p>1. WordPress.com - you choose a name for your blog (say larealestate) and your blog is named larealestate.wordpress.com and hosted on one of the WordPress servers. This really does not help search engine optimization, limits the ways you can customize your blog and prevents you from embeddding IDX property searches.</p> <p>2. WordPress.org - you subscribe to hosting company (typical cost - under $10 per month) and use your own domain name i.e. larealestate.com. You have complete control of every aspect of your blog.</p> <p>The second option is the only way to go if you are determined to make a serious presence on the web! </p>
