Create Your Own Real Estate Maps

Another new technology coming your way. Actually, it's just a re-tooling of Google Maps. You are now able to create your own maps at YourGMap.com. (See the one I just created by scrolling down to the very bottom of this blog site. It's cool!) You choose the locations. You choose the information to include. And then you can embed your map on your own website or blog, etc. And let's just say you take all your listings and put them on a map with their website addresses as well as your homepage or blog link and contact information, etc. And voila! You're marketing yourself in another creative way on the web. (Click here to see how a fellow Sugar Pine Realty agent is using YourGMap.) You can even email the link to your map (YourGMap provides that also) to your farm/contact list to promote yourself and your listings that way. (Or: why not embed the map as a part of your email signature and so everyone who receives your emails will in turn receive all your listings in map form at the same time!) You can probably think of other ways to use this service. Have at it. The best part is it's free. Let me know what you think.
