Internet mapping
THESE days, it seems that everyone in the industrialized world enjoys Internet access. The Internet provides nearly everything—from groceries to Chinese takeout to industrial equipment, and real estate.
Dynamic as it is, the real estate industry has learned to avail of this trend. Real estate brokers, knowing that a huge market of home buyers exists, post listings online in blog sites and websites that are designed to be as interactive as possible. This fills the gap that remote communication with potential clients has caused. Recently, real estate brokers have began to use what search engine companies and business solution providers are offering—Internet mapping.
Recently, residential real estate search engine Trulia.com launched TruliaMap, an online tool that residential real estate professionals can use for free, to make their blogs and websites more interactive and easier to navigate.
TruliaMap allows brokers and agents to post listings and automatically match these to the broker's or agent's own website. The sites are constantly updated and made attractive through color and animation.
The Internet tool supports Trulia.com's mission to help the real estate industry attract more home buyers.
Because of its interactive features, Internet mapping is considered an effective tool in the real estate industry. It enables buyers to showcase their property listings and makes it easy as cake for home buyers to find the house that's right for them.
Trulia.com reported that since the launch of TruliaMap, the number of hits on pages with broker and agent listings has skyrocketed 400 percent.
"Since the launch we have been inundated with requests by agents and brokers to utilize some of the tools on Trulia.com on their own websites. TruliaMap is the first tool of its kind and we will be launching more services to improve the online real estate search experience for everyone," said Trulia CEO and co-founder Pete Flint. He furthermore noted, "We will continue to work hand in hand with brokers and agents to increase the visibility of their listings in ways that they want and help connect home buyers with the best source of information available online about homes for sale."
So how can brokers and agents start using TruliaMap on their website or blog? They must simply submit a feed of their listings to Trulia. Afterwards, they can sign up for TruliaMap, which can be customized for their respective website or blog.
