I have never seen any benefit of this which is probably why they no longer support it.

It is dead, no longer functions. A couple of years ago you could pay extra money and if outsiders searched for a location you specified and paid extra money, they would be directed to you. It was similar to a pay per click Google or as they call it Ad Words. You could specify a budget. Active Rain turned it off long ago.

It's called "hit router" and I never really paid attention since I'm not a realtor.  Thees links may help you.

For those who haven't seen it, it's under the "more to explore" section of your home page. Thanks to everyone who answered. I guess the consensus is that it's no longer a functional piece of AR.

Hi Chuck, I never understood that one either. After reading some of the comments I understand better.  Good Question.

That is what happens when my home office network goes down.  I hit the router.  Then I hit the booze :)

Never heard of it.  Will look forward to other answers.  I have a feeling it was a Trulia/Zillow thing.
