Boston real estate blog
Blogging? Never heard of it.
Actually, creating a blog when you’re trying to sell your own home is a great idea.
The key is constantly updating the content, plus including links to photos, sales data, articles in the press, etc.
Here’s how one person’s doing it. He is still using a real estate agent, at the same time, and he hasn’t had any offers as a result of the blog, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t a good idea.

"But first I have to take my own medicine," Weinkrantz said.
He’s only had the blog, alanweinkrantz.typepad.com/826_cambridge_oval, up for a few weeks and it doesn’t link to his company Web site: weinkrantz.com.
