Do you have a web presence? If the answer is yes, then HOT can do a lot for you, with almost no effort on your part. You should consider:
linking to HOT from your website
deep-linking to your profile
framing your inventory from your HOT profile
iframing the HOT blog google maps as seen below.
Even if you don’t have a web presence, HOT can help you realize one easily. Consider using any of these techniques from a blog page at wordpress.com, they are fast, free and easy to setup. Or go to C.A.R.’s website at http://car.org to get started with a client direct newsletter free from C.A.R.
If you have access to HOT and have a web presence, you can use your profile page on HOT - HomesOpenToday.com to instantly and effortlessly display your inventory to the consumer.
To start, understand that HomesOpenToday.com, HOT for short, is a FREE service brought to you by your local Association or MLS. The consumer facing portion of your MLS Property information is visible on HOT on your profile page.
View your profile page by pasting this web address into your browser and changing the 99999 placeholder to be your MLS ID. http://www.homesopentoday.com/profile/realtor/99999 .
After pasting that string into your browsers address field just hit enter.
If you have problems with that, then simply go to www.homesopentoday.com, click ‘login’ and login as you would to the MLS. Click on your properties, and then click a specific property. Beneath the pictures on that property detail page will be a link that says ‘click here to view my other properties.’ The resulting page is your profile. That pages address will not change, so you can link to that page, or frame it into your website, giving you instant inventory access.
An example of the iframe statement to place in your blog or on a page on your website is here, and shown below -
<IFRAME SRC=”http://www.homesopentoday.com/profile/realtor/MLSIDHERE” WIDTH=590 HEIGHT=650></iframe>
Don’t have a website, blog or other web presence, or just want to get the most out of the HOT experience? Consider using this tactic in the C.A.R. Client Direct Newsletter. It is also free! Just go to C.A.R.’s website, login, and add that profile page link to your newsletter.
