Realtor Uses Blog and Feeds to Inform Customers

Hood River Oregon Real Estate agent uses blogs and property feed to inform customers.

Hood River, OR (PRWEB) June 13, 2007 -- More than half of US businesses are looking to blogs as a way to communicate with customers and potential customers. Copper West Properties owner/broker Maui Meyer is using blogs as a way to communicate with his hood river real estate customers and his local restaurant customers. Now he's using RSS (Real Simple Syndication) feeds to inform customers about current properties for sale. Many home seekers use websites and other information to keep up-to-date on current listings, Copper West Properties feed delivers new listing information every day to potential home buyers in Hood River, OR, and the surrounding areas.

The blog Copper West Insider, www.copperwest.com/insider provides great tips, resources and advice for purchasing a home and seeking the good life in Hood River, OR. "Copper West isn't about Real Estate Sales as much as it's about being a trusted negotiator, and local 'expert-adviser' to the process," said Meyer.

The property feed is a unique feature as most companies use RSS to distribute feeds for their blogs. "Utilizing an RSS feed to share the most up-to-date information about local homes seemed like a natural fit for us and for our customers," commented Meyer.

The Copper West Insider blog is authored by Meyer. Meyer found Hood River in 1985 as part of the Windsurfing World Tour. He immediately fell in love with the area, and returned to live full time in 1991, after graduating from Cornell University, in Ithaca, New York. "Hood River had a strong draw, and it literally came down to making a choice about love of a place over money," says Meyer. "It was a good decision."
