A blog Secret

There is a secret to getting back links that the re-net SEO experts don't write much about that I would like to share.

Write some unique content, or some great content and other blogs will link to it.

It is not as hard to do as you might think. Tomorrow when you write a blog post instead of linking to real estate news and commenting on it write something original.  It can be fun.

Obsessed with SEO?  Try a blog coach instead of an SEO company. You would be surprised how much impact what you write has on SEO.

why am I writing this?  I have no idea.  It is the week before thanksgiving and I already feel the effects of tryptophan.

Huh?

Whether we like it or not there are influencers on the re-net.  Some are a positive influence and some are not. I don't believe any real estate bloggers are active exponents of knowing evil, but they could be, I am not sure what it means.  Some days I think the hound doth protest too much. The people who influence the hound don't influence me.  None of it really matters because the internet isn't just for Realtors any more. The re-net is a very small world, it is a pimple on the butt of the internet, lets not lose site of that, and stop taking ourselves so seriously. 

Blogs - Not Just For Realtors Any more

I am trying to spread the word again.  Blogs are not just for Realtors any more.  There are blogs out there on just about every subject I can think of.  I like to read local blogs, news blogs, technology blogs and photography blogs. I leave comments on them too if I have something to contribute of if I really like the post.

People who are not in the real estate industry read blogs too.

The real estate industry did not invent the blog.  This might be hard to believe but most of the most read and best loved blogs on the planet are not related to real estate at all. This kind of proves that there are a lot of people out there who might not be reading the conversation we seem to be having amongst ourselves on the Internet.  Instead they are reading something interesting.

As for the whole inside outside argument that I have read about on Active Rain, there are far more blogs out side of active rain than there are inside of Active Rain. Can these millions of people who prefer outies be wrong?

Help Spread the Word

I know that  several who attended the NAR convention heard me say this and it was put out on Twitter but I really want everyone to know that Twitter isn't just for Realtors.

There are people outside of our industry who use it too.  If you look around you can find these people.  They are a lot of fun and you can learn from them too.  Some of them buy houses, and others are small business owners that you might want to do business with. There are also local and national news organizations who use twitter making it a great way to  keep up with what is going on in the world outside of twitter.

Some of my friends who went to the recent unchained event in Orlando learned that twitter is for idiots. Proving again that twitter is not just for Realtors.

So again I will say . .

Twitter isn't just for Realtors

Please help spread the word!
