A big visual difference is that you will notice a website overview box right below the navigation. This box contains a quick visual overview of how your website is doing. It shows you the number of Leads, Active listings, Sold listings, Pages, Blogs, Videos within your website as well as the number of megabytes of video hosted. It is a quick and easy way for you to gage the size and depth of your website. Here is a screenshot from one of our clients websites:

Ubertor Video Syndication To Facebook (updated)

Monday, March 21st, 2011

We have made an update to the video syndication system within your Ubertor website. Before, when you uploaded a video into your control panel you could have it syndicate to Combustion Video, Youtube.com, Viddler.com and/or Facebook.com. Now, you have even more control… when choosing to syndicate the video to Facebook, you can choose which Facebook Page you would like it sent to. Perfect for agents that control multiple Facebook Pages.

Do you shoot video as part of your real estate business? Give the “video” tab within your control panel a shot. If you have questions, feel free to click on the “live help” button in your control panel and one of our team would be pleased to assist you.

Do You Do Video Testimonials With Your Clients?

Tuesday, March 15th, 2011

Video is one of the most powerful tools on the internet. It allows people to not only see and hear you, but it lets them feel your enthusiasm and excitement for whatever it is that you are talking about. That is why I think testimonials are done best on video. Take the time to catch up with your clients and shoot a video testimonial (ideally right when you complete a transaction with them). It is a fantastic way for your past clients to speak directly to your potential clients. Here are a couple examples of what I’m talking about:

Marty Pospischil, Vancouver REALTOR

Susan and Alan Trugman (Youtube)
