    I am not sure if the forum format was the right way to go to achieve your goal of being a one stop shop for all real estate investing needs. I know you have other good information on the page, but it seems like the forum is the main thing being promoted. You don't have a whole lot of replies or views on it. Is this site still relatively new?

    Thanks for the feedback Tina. I agree about the forum being the "main" part of the site... I'll talk with my partners about that as it has come up before. When you say we don't have a lot of replies or views on the site.. not sure what you mean there. Our forum is constantly active and we are averaging 5-10 new members a day.

    Yes, the site is just over two months old. We have really seen it pick up lately (non stop pushing and marketing!!), and as of now we get 50,000 hits a week with 10,000 of them being unique hits.

    We also have a TON in the works. Webinars scheduled, advertising is about to pick up, etc.

    Anyway, thanks for your feedback and I would love to hear anybody else's thoughts!

    Thumbs up

    Though not traditional in terms of design, I rather like your idea of the site being forum-style. I don't see any problems with this. I can easily find the links I need to your other sections, features and pages, and I can also see right from the home page which topics are most popular/most discussed right now. It promotes an interactive arena, and that is becoming more and more necessary in this age of Web 2.0.

    I have done something similar with Real Estate 360[SIZE=-1]

    What forum application do you use on that site.... The layout looks nice, but the colors of the header(red/navyblue) do not match with the site.....

    You can just visit templatemonster site and look for good professional design. Maybe joomla will help to build a good looking real estate site with a lot of functionality

    I would work on your logo and banner, red/white lines hurt the eyes and will make you cross eyed after awhile

    creat concept but looks like a forum to share info on investing, if this is main goal for site, then I would market accordingly

    great resources and content!
