Thanks Jay, and congratulations! I’m glad you got permission to share the list here. (I did finally break down and become an Inman premium subscriber a month or two ago, but even so, it’s nice to just see the list and not click off your site to view it.) Keep up the good work!

Daniel,

Thank you. I love reading blogs dealing with the inner workings of Realtors which is why I have Jay’s blog in my favorite lists, but I would imagine the average consumer would become glassy eyed very quickly if they stumble upon a Realtor blog dealing primarily with Realtor stuff.

The real trick is writing a consumer oriented blog and make it interesting. Kudos to the Realtor who can make location. location location post exciting in print or put the pazazz in explaining purchase agreements and the clauses associated with.

This is all great feedback.

It is precisely the reason that you are on the list, Jay. Your influence is obvious.

Greg,

I especially like your idea of “consumer-focused” blogs. Teresa and Jim Duncan are two prime examples of that. I think it is a category worth including in future iterations of the report.

It is interesting to me that I have subscribed to 7 of those blogs RSS feeds. I need to check out the rest and see what they’re like. Congrats on being on the list, Jay.

Big congrats for making the list Jay! You put a great deal of effort into your blog and the community so it's nice to see the efforts rewarded by Inman! I do think it is a bit odd for them to charge though. I mean 1000Watt consulting released their top 10 real estate broker websites after doing a 3 month study and they released the report for free. **James Bridges´s last blog post..Can you get a lead for the price of lunch?
