Multiple Categories
You can write property listings (blog posts) under as many different categories and sub categories as you like. They all fit seamlessly into the website’s navigation and can then be searched or viewed by category, sub-category or keyword. Adding the Multiple category selection widget means many categories can be searched at once. Eg. Price, Location, No. Bedrooms etc. The Agent Press theme lets you show an image and content summary for each category. Click on photo below right.
Easy Photo Uploading
Upload multiple photos to a property listing all at once and click ‘Insert Gallery’ button to add them to the post. Sizes are setup in your administration so resizing is automatic and you get a professional looking gallery on each listing in minutes. With one click you select a main photo to represent each listing and this appears on your homepage and category pages. Click on photo right.
Multiple Authors & Access Levels
WordPress can handle any number of different users with varying levels of access creating and/or publishing new listings. By adding an author box (see image below), you add an agent’s photo and details to every property listing. You can also separate each author’s feed to show properties by agent. Access levels can allow users to publish new posts, only write new posts or only edit their own posts – the combinations are endless.
Superior Search Engine Optimisation
WordPress publishes blog content as a feed so search engines can easily index any new listings as they appear. Each post allows you to add custom titles, permalinks, meta descriptions, keywords and tags pertaining that listing. Pretty permalinks mean that the website address of each and every page/post consists of keywords (not random letters & numbers).
Automatic Promotion of your Listings
Adding plugins such as Sociable, Twitter Tools and Other Category Posts let you and your readers easily promote each and every listing. Your feed can be linked to an email newsletter to automatically send new listings to your subscribers once a day, once a week or once a month. Setup one newsletter or one for each category or agent.
