Instagram, now owned by Facebook, has enjoyed a steady rise to prominence over the last few years.
While most people might not think of Instagram first when they list the top social media networks, now is a good time to reassess that opinion.

Facebook is still the largest at 2.8 billion. When you dig deeper and look only at users in the Unite...

Facebook is the most powerful social media platform for real estate agents, bar none.
Why Facebook? As the real estate industry embraces digital marketing, it has become the #1 resource for building and maintaining long-term relationships. Twitter can be good for prospecting, LinkedIn is a gateway to luxury buyers, but nothing beats Facebook's overall utility. With nearly 2.4 billion monthly active users, including approximately 255 million in the United States and Canada, Facebook is still the go-to social media site for most people.
Facebook also owns the photography-focused platform Instagram, a natural fit for real estate agents and brokers. If you master Facebook, you'll have an easie...
