Launching Property Portal Watch (in Beta of course :))
I have been very busy since leaving the REA Group (realestate.com.au) a few weeks ago. One of the things that i have been working on is the launch of Property Portal Watch. (www.propertyportalwatch.com)
Property Portal Watch will be the one stop shop for all information on property portals around the word. It is designed to provide news, views, rumours, overviews and general information on property portal sites throughout the world. In addition it will provide tips and techniques for those wanting to advertise online. Its first incarnation is as a blog (while i get the proper site built).
If you have a chance, check it out and please give me your feedback. If you have an article or an idea for an article, please let me know and i will get it posted.
We are also building out the team around Property Portal Watch – there is just too much of the world for one person to cover.

Welcome to the My CEO Life. Have you always wondered what it is like at the top but never really known for sure? Have you always walked around the office a little afraid of the boss? Have you always wondered...
Looks like a good start – I’d like to see location as the top so you can drill down quickly, and perhaps a function to remember from which area I’m from to save time for next time. All sites should aim to have a next time.
Ahhh, the joys of beta! Looks like an interesting site, thanks for the posting.

Thanks for the feedback. I agree with what you are suggesting. This blog is just a holding position while i am building out a proper site – this is probably a couple of months away.
Thanks for subscribing

Looks like the new blog will have a lot of useful information coming up
I think a central place to have all the news and features will be a really good resource for agents and other real estate professionals!
Very informative, Simon. Hope all’s well with you.
Recommend that you list site on Trade Vibes (www.tradevibes.com).
Your Property Portal Watch site is very informative and useful to us as we develop our new site. Thank you Simon.
