I’m often asked which plugins I use on my self-hosted wordpress blogs, so in response here’s a list of my favorite widgets for use on any website, wordpress or otherwise. Please feel free to chime in with your own favorites in the comments.
Must Have Real Estate Website Widgets & Plugins
1. Open House Traffic Creator
You do a blog post about an open house… And this plugin automatically sends an email to everyone living within 10 miles of the open house. Your traffic will soar!
2. Expired listing prospector.
Tell this widget your zip code and it’ll simultaneously ring your phone and the phone of the owner of any listing that expires at exactly 9am on the day of expiration. Prospecting for listings has never been this easy.
3. Invisible Friender
You configure this widget by telling it a few things about yourslef and your real estate practice, then feed it your Twitter And Facebook logins. This app will then “friend” or follow one person on each network daily and also post something related to you and/or your real estate service area. Social Media Marketing? Yeah, in overdrive!
4. Contract Negotiating Real Estate Widget
You feed this widget the terms of your agreement of sale and it handles the back and forth for you. It starts by sending the seller a message that reads “what’s your counter offer?”
5. Auto listing servicer.
This one requires that you also give your seller a Magicam Re9000 to place at his or her heating return vent. What this nifty little widget does is amazing! As the Magicam gathers information from the property’s circulating air, it alters the asking price of the property and updates both your MLS system and your website based on the sellers current state of mind and motivation relative to when he or she originally listed the property. Huge time saver! Never beg for a price reduction again.
6. E-Settlement Gift Purchaser
You feed this widget a number from 1 to 10 indicating the level of “PITA” displayed by your client, and it sends out a bot that crawls popular online shopping sites and picks out and emails an appropriate closing gift. The nice clients get bottles of wine and gift cards to TGI Fridays, the real PITA’s get something from this site.
7. Broker Smack Down Widget
This widget sends your broker An “I’m gonna go to KW ” email every time he gets a litle too greedy. All you have to do is include the secret word, “fee” in an email or a blog post and this widget sends the warning email.
8. Auto Internet Lead Responder.
This widget uses Voice To Text technology and is triggered whenever someone registers or sends a comment via your site. It automatically sends an email and a phone message to the registrant that says… “Hi thanks for visiting my website! I’m such a good agent that I’ve got closings back to back for the next 4 days so I’ll get back to you when I have a chance to come up for air.” You’ll never get a complaint about your response time again.
9. Bogus Name & Email Detector
This one works hand in hand with the last one and is a real must have. It takes any bogus website registrations that you receive and forwards them to the colleagues that you like to forward stuff to. So next time Heywood Jablome or Eric T Midget registers for your IDX search, your pal will get the bogus lead and a quick nonproductive 15 minutes of forwarding the registration to all his friends.
10. Active Rain Auto Commenter
And of course. The bestest for lastest. The “Active Rain Auto Commenter” comes in both a free and a paid version. Both versions query the Active Rain Featured Post Feeds and drops a comment from you whenever keywords you specify are mentioned. With the free version, your comment simply says “Nice post. I agree. ” With the paid version you also get a nofollow link back to your site. Seo Yummy!
So, are you interested in downloading these and using them on your own site?
