Real Estate Ads on Craigslist Enhanced By RealtyBaron.com

RealtyBaron.com debuts free tool that offers to add color, stylish formatting, and unlimited image hosting for real estate ads on Craigslist.

Austin, TX (PRWEB) December 15, 2004 -- RealtyBaron.com is now offering to automatically generate the HTML markup required to add color, stylish formatting, and unlimited image hosting for real estate ads on Craigslist. Access to the tool is free after registration and is targeted at sellers who want an attention-grabbing listing, but do not have experience with web publishing.

Craigslist is a popular, non-commercial community bulletin board with classifieds and discussion forums. Since it's inception in 1995, Craigslist has remained true to its goal of "no frills" design, but does allow HTML markup to be inserted into its ads. With unique sale listings estimated at 3,000 a month in New York alone, competition for the attention of buyers on Craigslist is intense.

Realty Baron helps sellers stand out by generating pre-formatted HTML markup that organizes an advertisement's layout into six distinct sections: exterior photo, offering summary, amenities, specifications, full description, and additional photos. The offering summary consists of color-coded images that quickly alert readers to how the property is being marketed. Amenities, marked by arrows, and specifications, whose rows alternate background color, are aligned vertically for easy scanning. All property photos are uploaded and hosted at realtybaron.com.

Brownstoner, author of the popular Brooklyn real estate weblog, called the ad generator, "very cool". He believes sellers can use it to "create more attractive--and hopefully effective--ads."
