The Power of Social Networking and Virtual Tours

Charm City Virtual Tours recently added an integrated Social Networking and Bookmarking tool to all virtual tours to provide maximum exposure for real estate listings. This new service is FREE with every virtual tour! With a single click, each virtual tour can be added to 14 of the most used Social Networking and Bookmarking sites:

Digg
LinkedIn
Delicious

Reddit
Facebook

StumbleUpon
FriendFeed

Technorati
Furl

Twitter
MySpace
Mixx
Backflip

Bebo






So what? What does this feature mean to you as a realtor? Virtual tours have just gone viral! Huh? This means you can easily obtain maximum exposure for your listings by simply adding it to any of the sites you currently belong to or sign up for, and so can your seller, and their friends, and anyone who views the tour!

Encourage your past and current clients to add you to their networks. Encourage them to add the tour to their network as well. Create groups for different areas - you might have one for Baltimore, Rockville, DC, Gaithersburg, etc. Use those groups to market properties to particular homeseekers, etc. Share your listings with other agents in your office or network. Spread the word and watch your listing exposure and hits increase! Best of all - all of these sites have FREE membership!

This screenshot from a recent property listing shows just how effective this type of marketing can be - out of 82 hits, almost 32% were from Social Networking and Bookmarking sites!











Try it and see what a difference it can make in the exposure of your listings!
