Pictures In Your Home Exchange Listing
Home Exchange Blog
I’m constantly being asked by members what is the single most important thing they can do to make their home swap listing stand out. I always tell them the same thing - add photographs as quickly as possible.
A lot of members add pictures immediately they join, others do so within a few days. A small minority never do.
A picture speaks a thousand words and our web logs show that home exchange listings displaying pictures get clicked on many, many more times than those that don’t.
Following through on that recommendation, take a look at your pictures after you’ve loaded them (and probably, after we’ve add a chance to edit them for uniformity). Are they bright, sharp and distinct? Do they do a good job of illustrating your home and/or your surroundings? If they don’t, get out your camera and take some replacements.
If you’re really adventurous open an account with a web site such as MyPhotoAlbum.com and set up some online albums you can direct potential exchange partners to. You can have an album for your home, another for your neighborhood and another for family pictures. If you have a video camera you can also post some video clips.
Use these online albums as an enhancement to your online photographs with ExchangeHomes.com, not to replace them. You must have attractive pictures within your home exchange listing to initially grab attention.
