Webinar Handout

Podcast (Audio Only)

Yesterday's Webinar with Blanche Evans (Realty Times) and Hilary Marsh (Realtor.org) offers valuable information about online publishing rules, including copyright considerations and new Blogging Guidelines being developed by the National Assn. of REALTORS. One of the most interesting issues in the guidelines is the position that the NAR legal eagles are taking about comments. They are insisting that the NAR blogmasters moderate their comments: 

"If you have a blog, accept comments. Develop a comment policy outlining the types of comments you WON’T publish: e.g., those that are offensive, illegal, irrelevant, or are sales pitches."

The webcast, podcast, and handout contain information that real estate agents and brokers will find valuable in developing a Blog Business Plan.

The following resources are mentioned in the Webinar: 

• RealtyTimes
• Articles for Rookies
• Economic Research
• Build a Better Web Site
• Start a Podcast
• Architecture Guide
• Handouts for Buyers and Sellers
• Field Guides
• 8-Step Personal Marketing Plan
• Download e-Mail Banners
• Fill--In-The-Blanks News Releases

The next 8-week Blog Coaching Webinar program starts next week. Join us and take your blogging to the next level at No Blogger Left Behind.
