So terribly, horribly, MADDENINGLY simple.
So simple as the little link that appears at the bottom of our customers' web sites or IDX search pages. The one that links back to the ListingWare home page.
This little link is much bigger than it seems. And it's not just that it's there, but HOW it's there.
For years, that simple little link has toiled away in anonimity, at least as far as search engines would know. Because for years, I've had it down there so that humans could read it, and using JavaScript techniques, control the link opening in a new window and sizing the window properly.
But because I used the JavaScript technique rather than a simple HREF link, search engine robots couldn't figure out what it was and IGNORED IT! So the THOUSANDS of web sites and IDX searches that we've been hosting all this time haven't benefitted us at all, at least as far as being found in search engines!
So, I've fixed that, and learned a valuable lesson, the benefit of which I can hopefully pass on to you, our customers, also.
