Two Companies Launching Wordpress IDX Plugins into the Wild

by Jeff · 8 comments

Wow, what a week!  I’ve been busy creating videos and marketing material for our upcoming Wordpress IDX plugin launch (which apparently doesn’t exist). My google alert for “Wordpress IDX Plugin” has been going crazy this week for obvious reasons. It’s an exciting time. I’m learning a TON every day. Building cool stuff that helps Real Estate agents do their jobs better. Helping them implement it in a meaningful way. Enjoying every minute of it!

You probably know, Diverse Solutions is making a lot of noise with the launch of their new plugin. On the other hand, we at HomeQuest have been somewhat silent on our product until just this week. But, the time has come. We’ve tested the crap out of this thing. It’s ready to face the world and from what I can see, there are a lot of people just as excited about all this as we are.

I’m pretty excited about this. I’ve been using DS for a year, and the back end has nothing on homequest. My contract is up soon, an I’m definitely considering a switch.

Keeping an eye out, this looks promising.

Sorry, but the plugins as advertised do not work. They do NOT import the MLS Raw Data into your real estate website. The plugins you mention can only be used if the MLS data owned by the MLS Board has been mapped (programmed) to their platform. You must be an IDX/RETS client of theirs to make it work. Their Wordpress plugins are NOT stand-a-lone IDX plugins.

Nothing new and no real magic here.

Mack, we already went through this pretty extensively on your blog and agreed to disagree (or so I thought).

Do we not already have clients using these products? Yes, we do.
Is the rest of the world wrong, and you alone right? Probably not.

So, again, let’s just agree to disagree. You keep doing whatever it is you’ve been doing, and we’ll keep doing what you claim not possible.

Thanks,
Jeff
