We know that today’s consumers are social. In fact, 62% of adults worldwide now use social media. And social networking is the most popular online activity, with 22% of time online spent on channels like Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest.
To help take advantage of this behavior, our new home listing sites NewHomeSource.com and MoveNewHomes.com incorporate a variety of social features that allow visitors to share homes and communities throughout their networks of friends and family.
For starters, at the top of any site page, you will see a social sharing bar that allows users to share the home or community through their social network of choice. So, when shoppers find a home they love or a community they are considering, they can simply click a button and share it within their network.
And our latest social addition is a “Pin It” button seen on any image shown in home or community galleries. Visitors can “pin” their favorite images to Pinterest – now the 3rd largest social network after Facebook and Twitter.
These social sharing features amplify your reach throughout the social world. Each time a visitor to NewHomeSource.com or MoveNewHomes.com shares a home on Facebook or pins an image to a board on Pinterest, it links back directly to your home or community listing on our site. These social sharing features give your homes additional online exposure and generate additional interest in your properties.
