Learn how to use our platform to it’s full potential.
Those looking to find homes in Cleveland Ohio can easily find what they are looking for, using various search and filter options, such as Neighborhood, Address, Amenities, and more.
We encourage home owners to fill out their Listings as completely as possible, in order to extend their customer reach.
Home owners can provide various details to help users of our platform make better-informed decisions.
The following details are available to all Listing owners, regardless of their Listing package.
Tip: The higher you move up within the home packages, the more fields you unlock.
All homes include a built-in contact form so people always have an easy way to reach out to home owners.
The email address used when signing up for the platform will be used as the default recipient address, but this can be changed at any time, by editing your account details.
Home owners can have their address shown for quick reference.
Additionally, that location will be shown on a map, providing quick access to directions for users.
Home owners can build up their reputation by accumulating positive ratings and reviews.
That said, everyone has to start somewhere and may not have their reputation built up.
Ratings and Reviews are always moderated and can only be submitted by registered users of the platform.
To help people easily reach Listing owners and to help get homes found in search engines, NAP (Name, Address, and Phone Number) is critical information to include in a home.
While including a Name (i.e. Home Title) is a given, homes can contain the following information, in an actionable format (ex. click-to-call) where possible, to make things even more convenient for users of the platform.
Links to Social Networks can be added to homes.
When a link is added the name of the network and the corresponding icon is automatically added.
If someone chooses to click on one of the Social Networks, that network’s website will open in a new browser tab, so users can stay on the Listing.
Home owners can include a link to one of their online videos (e.g. YouTube), which in turn embeds the video into their Listing.
