Agent XSites
are awesome websites you can build in just minutes.
They're simple. They're fun. And they
"do
something". On top of it all, an XSite you create will
look so professional that visitors will think a web design team
spent months building it. Many of us are skeptical and we have those technical questions buzzing in our minds. Well, here's the top frequently asked questions our customers have asked us. (Feel free to contact us if you have additional questions.)
|
|
 |
How much time is it really going to take to setup an XSite? |
| 15 minutes, if you use our defaults, and you're all set! You'll have a professional, attractive website that actually does something. You can then spend as much time as you'd like updating, freshening, tinkering etc. after you're done. | |
|
|
Who owns my Agent XSite domain name (My ".com")? |
|
When you create your
Agent XSite and you choose a new domain name (ex.
floridaagent.com), we register the new domain for you
automatically. The domain name is absolutely yours and is
registered in your name. As is standard with web hosting services, we maintain the technical aspects of your domain, which allows us to renew it automatically each year and deal with the other technical routing issues, like making it work seamlessly with your XSite, CertMail account, or XSellerate. However, you are the designated administrative and billing contact. And this means if you ever decide to host your website with another company, you can easily take your domain name with you. To do so, simply follow these instructions. If you already own your own domain name and wish to use it with your XSite, that's no problem. You'll just continue to renew your domain name ownership with the company that you bought it from originally. |
|
|
|
Will my XSite support IDX / VOW? |
| Yes. If you are working with a broker that has an IDX or VOW site, your XSite can be linked to it directly. | |
|
|
Can I pick which content pages I want to have on my XSite? |
| Sure, you're in control of every page. | |
|
|
How is my data transferred into the pages? |
| The XSites Wizard asks you for information about your business that you want customers to know once, and then populates it on your site where it needs to go. Point, click, done! | |
|
|
How is the domain name (my ".com") created? Do I create one and have it checked against a database? |
| You simply type in any name you want and it checks instantly to see if it's available; if so, it will tell you and give you the option to register it. If not, you can choose a different name. | |
|
|
Can this new site be linked to my current website? |
| Yes! It's universal HTML, so any links you want will work. One of the things about getting a new website, like a new e-mail address, phone number or office address, is that you have to let customers know where to find you. We make it as easy as possible. We suggest you link your old site to your new one, then later, redirect your old domain to our servers. But rest assured, the XSites Wizard helps you let people know where to find you. | |
|
|
Will my XSite be found in search engines such as Google™ and Yahoo!® by prospective clients? |
| We submit your site to the major search engines automatically, along with your description and your keywords (we also provide a list of metatags and keywords and include those in your pages automatically, so the "spider" search engines pick them up). | |
|
|
How do I use my current domain? |
| All you need to do is have your registrar redirect your domain name to our servers. Since we don’t own your domain name, we can’t legally do this for you. Our XSites Wizard will tell you exactly who to call (telephone numbers and what information you'll need to provide). | |
|
|
How many domain names can I have? |
| There is no limit to the number of domain names you may have. You get one free with your XSite and the XSites Wizard lets you purchase additional domain names. | |
|
|
What will my e-mail address be? |
| You get ten CertMail e-mail mailboxes with your XSite so you can have up to ten separate e-mail addresses. They will be in the form of yourname@yourdomain.com. | |
|
|
Is there a charge when I change my XSite? |
| No! You can make as many changes as you like, anytime you like and never pay any fees. | |
|
|
How will my XSite be different from the others? |
| Unlike traditional “cookie cutter” template websites, the XSites Wizard makes it so easy to customize your website, and there are so many options available, that the unique possibilities are endless. With the ability to use your own header graphics and customize your colors, add you own logos and custom content, truly, you can make your XSite as unique as you want to. See our comparison chart for more. | |
|
|
Will I be able to tell how many “hits” or visitors have been to my XSite? |
| Yes. XSites' website statistics give you a big picture overview and details about your site's most popular pages, listings and more. | |
|
|
Can I add pages or links to my Real Estate business? |
| Absolutely! You can add as many pages and as many links as you want. Just as long as the pages or links meet our Acceptable Use Policy, which is to say that they are legal and not pornographic or offensive in nature. | |
