The Best IDX Solution
IDX or Internet
Data eXchange is a technology that allows participating brokers to share their
listing information with other real estate agents. (In other words, IDX is the
area's online MLS.) In the Denver, CO area, listing information is handled by
Metrolist, Inc., who reports that nearly 98% of all MLS data is available through
IDX.
To take advantage
of IDX, you must contact a Metrolist representative and sign their IDX Agreement.
On that agreement they will ask how you want to access the IDX Database. You
should select the IDX Database Link option.
PowerSearchDenver will help you create an agent branded framing structure to
properly show a live feed of IDX data. This framing structure is a good way
to utilize IDX data as there is little overhead. The delivery and presentation
of large volumes of data to the browser window is handled efficiently by the
Metrolist servers - not your web server.
When you couple
PowerSearchDenver with the IDX data stream, magic begins to happen -
bringing your clients back to your web site time and time again.
