IDX Integration
What makes RealestatePointe's fully-integrated IDX property searches the best possible solution for your company?
Each property . . . thousands of them . . . are loaded as their own page (node in Drupal-speak). What this means is that each piece of data associated with each piece of property is fully searchable by users and search engines.
A Sitewide Keyword Search box, standard in the Web 2.0 world, allows users to type in their specific keywords to find all Properties, Blog Articles, Pages, any type of content in your entire website that meet their specific criteria.
Each property has it's own search-engine-friendly URL that includes the entire property address . . . street, city, state, and zip code. The SEO benefits of this friendly-url system are unsurpassed.
Very specific specialty searches or lifestyle searches can be set up for any of your market niches to match how consumers shop for homes in your area.
There is a very large difference between having fully-integrated MLS IDX data in your website's own database and using a framed solution that either goes to the provider's website, or the MLS website to perform searches. With these type of systems you lose the flexibility of relating to the data and setting up specialty searches, and most importantly, you lose all the SEO benefits of having thousands of real estate listings on your own website.
