A new “Real Estate” Blog in Myrtle Beach

Posted in General Real Estate , Myrtle Beach Real Estate

First things first – For those of you that are new to blog’s and blogging here is a brief description of what a “blog” is; Blog (a contraction of the term “Web log”) is a Web site, usually maintained by an individual with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or video. Entries are commonly displayed in reverse-chronological order. “Blog” can also be used as a verb, meaning to maintain or add content to a blog.

Many blogs provide commentary or news on a particular subject; others function as more personal online diaries. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, Web pages, and other media related to its topic. The ability for readers to leave comments in an interactive format is an important part of many blogs. Most blogs are primarily textual, although some focus on art (artlog), photographs (photoblog), sketches (sketchblog), videos (vlog), music (MP3 blog), audio (podcasting), which are part of a wider network of social media. Micro-blogging is another type of blogging, one which consists of blogs with very short posts. As of December 2007, blog search engine Technorati was tracking more than 112 million blogs.[1]With the advent of video blogging, the word blog has taken on an even looser meaning — that of any bit of media wherein the subject expresses his opinion or simply talks about something.

Like most people that are addicted to the internet if you spend enough time online you see most anything the good, the bad, and sometimes the really bad.  However, I love to read about real estate – The trends, what’s new, new marketing ideas, and new laws; just anything to do with real estate.  In my “web surfing” I have come across many, many blogs on real estate and I was astonished on the content of some of these Blog’s. I would go through them and 75% of the “posts” in the blog had NOTHING to do with Real Estate.  Now some people may read this content, but I started thinking “If I was looking for an agent to sell my property or some advice on buying a piece of property would I filter thorough a blog filled with food recipes, pictures of animals, and other nonsensical posts?”  Well knowing how short my patience and attention span can be I knew the answer was NO! 

That is when I decided it was time to start my own blog… And I said to myself whatever I do I am going to keep my post about Real Estate.  So I called my website designer, Michael Hasty with Inkhaus Creative, and said “I want a Blog” Michael then replied “I told you two years ago that you needed a Blog”.  So hat in hand I went to his office and proceeded to explain what my idea of a blog would be.  As always he took my idea and made it 50 times better with the creation of www.MyrtleBeachHomeBlog.com – Michael used his web design skills and created my blog in Word Press…  And the rest is history – Now it has not been easy I have struggled through a lot of my post and found it difficult to sometimes find stuff to write about but every post on my site has something to do with Real Estate.  Sometimes I may cheat a little and post a new listing that I have, post an interesting article on real estate that I read, or even take a portion of an older post and re-blog it – But it is about Real Estate.  

In my blog www.MyrtleBeachHomeBlog.com you will find information on all facets of Myrtle Beach Real Estate; Green Building, Why now is a good time to Buy in Myrtle Beach, Tax Laws, 1031 Tax Deferred Exchanges, Golf Course Living, and the list goes on.  Please don’t forget to subscribe to my newsletter on the right had side of the page – I send a twice monthly news letter with great information on new properties for sale, discounted room rates in Myrtle Beach, Realtor promotions, and other valuable information.
