VentureBeat: Real estate sites like Trulia see record traffic and revenue

    Here come the vultures! In this case, however, all of these foreclosed homes need to be taken off the market. In Florida, it's like a ghost town in some cities, and it's really frightening to think about what could come of these places if nothing is done.

    Matt - why are you surprised that comscore data is off? When has third-party traffic measurement EVER been reliable for anything other than cocktail party talk?

    How far off are they for VentureBeat?

    Last time I checked Trulia does not have FSBO as they limit their inventory to MLS/Broker only. If I am a WashingtonPost consumer that wants to buy a print and online listing ad for my house will WashingtonPost now tell me they don't want my advertising money? Redfin and Zillow have FSBO BTW.

    Not sure the "Unique Visitors" from Omniture are actually true Monthly Uniques. I believe those are actually Daily Unique Visitors that are summed each day. So, even those numbers are really suspect

    VB Reader -- "7.5 million unique users" for Zillow refers to monthly uniques -- counting each person only once throughout the course of the month.

    Customer,

    The Washington Post will have a separate section has all of their classifieds.

    I like what others have to say about Truklia and the quality of the consumer traffic we drive to our partners. Here is an independent study showing Trulia as the number one driver of leads - http://cli.gs/trulia-top-lead-generator

    I found this great Trulia testimonial today from Deborah Madey, a Broker in NJ, who compared her professional experience with Trulia vs. Realtor.com - http://cli.gs/deb-madey

    I Love Trulia, but I'm a little biased :)

    Happy Valentines Day!

    Wow, AOL Real Estate is ahead of Realtor.com in traffic and shows massive year to year growth. That’s very impressive! This is exciting news for us at Cyberhomes.com as we power their real estate related data. We’re also a division of the company which supplies Trulia with its property data.

    If Trulia help to stimulate the market and get sales moving again it must be a good thing.
