Leading Real Estate Social Network Redevelops Platform; Announces Re-Launch of Web 2.0 Interface
Leading real estate social networking site releases beta version of new social networking platform for professionals.
Las Vegas, N.V. (PRWEB) February 5, 2009 -- The Leading real estate social networking website WannaNetwork.com has released its beta version of a new social networking platform that will change the way real estate agents and professionals share leads, referrals, and communicate.
According to Mark Madsen, head of business development for WannaNetwork.com "This new development is in response to an overwhelming demand for a unique social networking experience that real estate professionals can use to integrate into their daily business routines and marketing agendas."
Madsen explained that since Wanna Network went live there has been a major shift in how industry professionals use the Internet to connect, research, market, and capture valuable consumer interest.
Founder Tony Sena described "WannaNetwork has grown on a platform that was good for our members in the beginning, however the time has come to upgrade and expand the community to serve the growing needs of our committed members. We've been talking about a new platform for over a year. During that time we have looked at many different proprietary platforms and ultimately settled on an open source application powered by WordPress - a leader in simple semantic personal publishing. We've also added an exceptionally skilled development team headed up by Dustin Dempsey of Playforward Designs, a Sandpoint Idaho based web development firm, whom has greatly helped this new vision for WannaNetwork come together. We thank him greatly for his dedication to make it happen".
As of February 1st 2009, registered members totaled 18,421 and the number is increasing on a daily basis. The network is open to appraisers, home builders, home inspectors, home insurance agents, home stagers, lenders, loan officers, escrow officers, title officers, transaction coordinators, real estate agents, real estate brokers, reach estate coach, real estate investors, real estate media, real estate trainers, commercial real estate agents, and property managers. Membership to the site is free.
The easy-to-use social network is mainly designed to assist the Real Estate Industry in their business. Recognizing that not all online networking sites are geared specifically for the Real Estate Industry, WannaNetwork fills the space.
Research continues to show that social networks help serve customers. According to an article published by PC World, social computing was hailed as a useful tool to gauge customer sentiment just last week during a panel session at a Microsoft-sponsored conference where panelists from companies such as Dell, Intel Capital, and Sony detailed their experiences with social computing, in which computing is used as a platform for social interaction. Internet users choose social networking sites as their platform of choice. Advertising on those networks increases awareness of commercial products and services. Advertisers are expected to spend $1.9 billion on social networks by 2010, up from $280 million in 2006.
