Posted by Mark Thompson in Ecommerce | July 22, 2008 | Comments (1)

For people who are not familiar with vFlyer, they are a classified ad creation, management, and submission platform, allowing sellers to quickly reach consumers in multiple marketplaces by creating attractive “virtual flyers”.

I am not a real estate professional by any means; however we have helped a bunch of real estate brokers and agents with the marketing of their properties and listings online. We use to post their listings on sites like Trulia, Zillow, and Google Base individually. This took some time because we were manually adding their listings to each of these real estate search sites. With vFlyer, you can automate your submissions, saving you time and making life a lot easier.

What can vFlyer do?

vFlyer has partnered with many real estate websites providing a platform to syndicate your listings. vFlyer will allow you to upload your listings automatically to Google Base, Trulia, Zillow, Oodle, Vast, Hotpads, Geebo, Backpage, Olx, DotHomes, Cyberhomes/AOL, Yahoo, and Frontdoor. A real time savor is the option to create a listing one time and be able to distribute it to all of these affiliate sites.

I should note, even though I focused mainly on the real estate professionals, other industries can benefit from this service as well. They have distribution platforms for Automotive, Jobs, Services and Other.

  1. Wow – that site looks fantastic. What a great tool – thanks for walking me through the steps. I also have found zillow and trulia to be time consuming – so I have actually turned to PropertyMaps where the whole mls listing is there for you. Thanks again for that information – I’ll have to play with that site a bit. I can’t believe how much it can do!
