(and [...]

Just walked out of the first Fusion event put on by the Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate crew… So much fun!

I’ve been working with the NAR team to put together a WordPress event at NARdiGras, and couldn’t be more excited that we’re ready to start announcing details! In a nutshell, we’ve broken the half-day event into two tracks — one for beginners and one for more advanced WordPress users — and the folks we’ve agreed [...]

I know I’m a bit biased because the Inman team has been good to me, but I really love the Real Estate Connect events. So much fun! And a day after hosting the WordPress Workshop I’m just now coming down off the high. Here’s a few of the photos I took of the session! [...]

A few months ago, the Council of Residential Specialists asked if I’d be interested in giving a webinar presentation on SEO.
