Something to think about if you are not a web developer.

Thanks for all the great info!

IDX allows people to search the MLS on your website. It removes much of the confidential information that is found on the MLS but does allow users to search for the homes they want according to their own criteria. I use idx for my users to search the San Diego MLS.

some boards provide a free framed in IDX which is great for a low cost site. non-framed in IDXs are the costly one. Iframes and non framed IDXs are another topic.

Having a MLS IDX solution on a real estate website is a very good way to keep clients on your site longer! This is all very good information as I determine when to add an MLS IDX solution to my website. Thank you!

You can use the IDX as either as a feed or as an iFrame from the IDX provider. The feed is the better choice because the search engines will see the IDX content as your content vs an iFrame which can't be indexed.
