Looks like DSIdxpress,<\/a>a wordpress idx plugin that allows indexaspiderability of mls listings, is in beta. <\/p>\n

Neat stuff. I really like DS. Enjoyed tapping their feeds to autofeed content and game search engine results in my own practice late last year. Enjoy integrating their solution in client sites today. They’ll probably make a bunch of sales based on this innovation, which is cool. “You’ll have thousands of listings indexed on google” is a great pitch…<\/p>\n

Or at least it used to be?<\/p>\n

What I think this really means is that the days when IDX works as an effective lead capture tool are actually coming to a close. Spiderability doesn’t seem like it’ll be such a big deal anymore when everybody’s hip and got it implemented.<\/p>\n

Retechudamus says: As older school brokers scurry to grab the next “get rich quick” property search tool thats better than the guy’s down the street, the steady and sure content creators will continue to build a loyal fan base, poaching said brokers’ referral bases along the way.<\/p>\n

Either way, good shit DS, this is still a nice move and I look forward to playing once it’s ready! <\/p>\n
