I receive hundreds of emails and calls a week with the same or similar question. “Is wordpress a good solution for a real estate website?”

My answer. Extremely!

WordPress is a publishing system that allows for blogging, posting and publishing articles. It allows for comments and interactivity with your readers. Allot of people think that WordPress is just a blogging software but I can honestly say that WordPress has grown up from a simple blog to a powerful publishing platform. And given its easy use and management features from the dashboard and countless plugins, you can not only have a real estate website, you can have a powerful real estate content management system.

Next comes the question about integrating IDX into WordPress. I can tell you it is an extremely smooth integration and displays all of the advanced IDX features right within your WordPress site. We customize these sites daily and the results are nothing less than excellent. In addition, by rewriting some of the code and links in the WordPress theme, we gain great SEO results.

So, if you are a real estate professional seeking a better solution for your real estate website, give wordpress a look.

Here are a few of our samples using wordpress and IDX:
