I don't know how many of you or your agents are using Market Leader/Realty Generator or Pro. You are probably not aware of it, but your Mobile Site is not capturing any leads!! It does not display a registration pop up. I started noticing a decline in registrations last summer and I didn't know why. The decline became more drastic after Christmas so I went to the my consumer site on my iPad and searched. I could view as many properties as I wanted and was never asked to register. Nor was there any way to do so. It also provided no contact information when I clicked the contact tab. That issue has been resolved. Clearly the decline in registrations is in direct proportion to the dramatic increase in the number of consumers using mobile devices and tablets. I reported these issues over a month ago. The contact info was corrected but I am being told that the forced registration is on the list. Seems to me that it should be the NUMBER 1 priority!!! We're all spending a lot of money and time to capture leads and as the consumer goes mobile we're getting fewer leads. Contact your account rep and let them know your not happy and we all want this corrected NOW!!!

Here's the defense I received from Market Leader.

Bryan Cordell Hi Bill...It is important to think of mobile users differently than desktop users. When you are on your desktop you generally have more time and are more willing to sign up for something. When you are on your mobile you're often in a hurry and trying to get information right away. If a potential client is on your site and is in front of a house trying to get more information...they don't want to mess with signing up and will move onto a site that doesn't require them to. The mobile sites do require registration to save a listing or request more information.

Here's my response. Bill Wagner. I don't want to get in a sparing match with you Bryan but I do this for a living and I disagree with you. Most mobile users are not sitting in front of the house. Just fix the problem. I also run a Boomtown site and my registrations are three to one to that of Market Leader and I can relate it directly to this mobile registration issue. My Boomtown site indicates whether a user registered from a PC or a mobile device. So I know that mobile users are not moving on to another site. The use of mobile devices has skyrocketed since Christmas. Let's just make this priority number 1 because as real estate agents we're all losing tens of thousands of dollars in commissions!!!!

I agree. I footing the bill for our agents.
