BEING AN ACTIVE BLOGGER STARTS WITH A PLAN
I have been dedicated to social networking for the past twenty months. I decided to develop a plan to heavily invest my time into social networking. Here were some of my main reasons to start social networking:
- Everyone is doing it
- Minimum cost
- I love to write
- Search engine rankings
- Obtain new business
So, I developed the reasons above to start my social networking plan. I got myself on all the social networking sites that are possible. I am sure I am missing a couple. My assistant helps me to be current on all sites. I must say that I love ActiveRain the best for the following reasons
- Ease of blogging
- Great search engine ranking
- Superior customer service support
- Excellent people blogging daily
- Coffee and blogging go together
We are making great strides in social networking. One must create an overall social networking plan. Then, it must be executed on a daily basis. Otherwise, it can be very overwhelming in my opinion. What do you think? Content is king. So, I have been writing articles for the last six months to post on different article web sites to be known as an expert in my field. There is a lot to write about when it comes to real estate. What is the trick to it? I write about my experiences and events that people want to read about.
Let me give you an example the POWER OF 1+1. I am demonstrating that it amazes me when two people do come together for a meeting after social networking together. I invited someone of Facebook to meet me last night. It has quite the network himself of about 2,000 people. Well, I have a little over 5,000 people in my network. We are combining our networks when it comes to real estate. So, I am listing a triplex that he had purchased with a partner below market value. I have two people interested in the property at this time.
Done Deal! I just wanted to share my success story. Yes, blogging is worth every key stroke.

Harry, we are reading success stories every day and I think the more our blog posts "incubate" the more stories we will hear about - way to go on your achievement! ~ Susan
You are correct, one needs a plan which I don't have at this time. I also have to say what a effort on your part to have over 5,000 in your network. I don't know if I can be that structured in getting it all together.
Susan it becomes part of my job daily
Glen you be surprised once you start going with social marketing
Harry,
Congratulations on your success! It's proof that it doesn't take a long time to find market success on the Internet.
Steve
It took me about three months to obtain my first lead with blogging
Amazing 5,000. Can you track if those 5,000 are in your market or just everywhere?
I use Top Producer to track my contacts
Another great one! You are a very busy man tonight, Harry. All great hints.

Thanks Harry,
You are an encouragement.
Harry, yes, blogging is a 'commotment' - and one needs to block the time for that - on daily basis.
Harry--- Blogging is becoming big part my business. It's so true what you said here.
Boy all great insight to be a better blogger here
I have experienced that blogging is a day by day building over a period of time
