When I blog, who benefits? Many people, maybe even you!

1)If you're a listing agent and I've staged one of your listings, I've probably blogged about it here on AR and on my home staging website. I've displayed photos of the listing and I've included your contact information, including a link to your website, if you have one. That's lots of additional exposure for your listing, you and your website. Here are some examples of posts I've done about the properties I've staged recently:

• Congratulations Tommy Thai! Staged, Sold & Closed in Just 29 Days!
  
• Vacant Home Staging an Arcadia Townhome
• Pasadena Craftsman Home Staging
  

2)If you are a professional home stager, or want to become a home stager, you may have benefited from my blog posts as well (at least, I hope you have:o)). Here's some examples of home staging posts that I hope were beneficial to home stagers:

• Seeing Red In Home Staging Photos
• Real Estate Staging Association International Conference - Get The 411
• Buyer Beware - Business Opportunity May Not Be What It Seems
• Your Home Staging Business - How Do I Grow My Business?

If you are a home owner thinking about selling your Los Angeles or Pasadena home, or your home is already on the market with no offers, you can benefit from my blogging as well. Here are some blog posts that may be of interest to you:

• Home Staging Consultation - Updating a Silverlake Kitchen Inexpensively
• Curb Appeal Tip: Improving the Appearance of a Concrete Block Wall
• Los Angeles Home Stager Tips For a Smooth Move
• Money Saving Home Staging Tip - Get A Home Staging Consultation, Then Do It Yourself
• Choosing A Home Stager
  

Local Businesses have benefited from my blogging:

• Los Angeles Home Staging Company Forms Strategic Alliance With Northstar Moving
  
• My Favorite Tile Resource in Los Angeles
  
• Designer Furniture and Accessory Sale
• Burkard Nursery Summer Sale
  

Heck, even professional home inspectors benefited when I wrote this post about the importance of having a home inspection before you purchase a home:

• Why You Should Always Hire A Professional Building Inspector When Buying A Home
  

Of course, I benefit and my Los Angeles home staging company benefits when I blog. My business would not be nearly as successful if I didn't post to Active Rain, my blogs and website. Blogging about home staging has allowed me to establish myself as an expert in the field of home staging and the business of home staging. Blogging has put me on the first page of Google, often in multiple positions in all my desired search terms. And because of that, I am found by more home owners and real estate agents, thereby getting more business.Besides that, I have learned so much by reading blogs written by others, both here on Active Rain and elsewhere on the internet.

Of course, its not only about business. I've made some incredible and priceless personal connections because I'm blogging, both here on Active Rain and on my website. The list is very long and I am very grateful for your friendships.

I first discovered blogging when I was introduced to Active Rain. When I talk to new home stagers, experienced home stagers, new real estate agents or experienced real estate agents, one of the first thing I tell them is they must blog if they want to grow their reputation and get great market exposure for little cost.

When I blog, who benefits? Lots of people, not just me.

Who benefits when you blog?
