Knoxville Tennessee Real Estate Blog

I’ve always been a big fan of statistics and like graphs and charts to display them in an easy to understand format.

Each of my listings gets a virtual tour from www. VisualTour.com and one of the cool things about Visual Tour is that they syndicate your listings out to other websites so you can give your sellers more exposure than normal.

They also keep a running total of how many views each tour gets on the various websites.

This is the Visual tour page view summary for one of my listings.

KnoxvilleHomeCenter.com is my personal website where each listing is a “Featured Home”. The graph above shows 12724 Comblain has had it’s Visual Tour viewed 212 times from there.

Realtor.com is in the darker blue and it has recorded 19 visits from that link.

kaarmls.com is the Knoxville Area Association of Realtors public website; 34 views from there which includes the link from the listing brief on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS).

FrontDoor.com is House & Garden TV’s entry into the online real estate world; we scored 18 visits from their website.

The 62 “other” visits came from Google Base, Homes.com, The Real Estate Book, Yahoo Real Estate, Zillow.com, HomeSeekers.com, Trulia, HomePages.com, Prudential Properties VOW, and Vast.com.

Realtor.com, the official website of the National Association of Realtors offers some pretty good stats on your listings displayed there too.

These are the weekly numbers for one of my listings on Realtor.com. This shows that listing has been viewed over 1600 times in the past 3 and a half months.

I also take the monthly, quarterly, and yearly MLS data and make graphs with it and also information from the Knox County Register of Deeds Office and a statistical service that sends me market data.
