You guys were early into this 2 1/2 years ago. I started late in 2009 but through daily content updates, I could build a solid customer / reader base in just a few months. Today my real esate site at Facebook (www.Facebook.com/FarmScout) is among the fastest growing pages on this social network for real estate in Florida....and meanwhile I have speciality sites for Golf Homes and Beach Homes too. It's a lot of daily editorial work but just amazing seeing it grow. And my clients can discuss property details in real time with me or an associate. My newsletter never could achieve this. Respect.

I think if the deal would have gone through, you would have seen a massive exit of the really good bloggers on AR to focus on their own blogs or they would move to another platform. (There is no shortage of negative articles concerning Move.com on AR) As I've noticed, AR has been a really good gateweay for agents to get introduced to blogging and to learn. Luckily for real estate agents, real estate blogging is something that the big beast was too slow to get involved in. Beautiful analysis of the Move.com intentions concerning AR.
