DidIt.com, does it right for Lightner Property Group
Friday, November 6, 2009 at 12:00PM Most of us who are responsible for web content are always looking for new and interesting widgets and content to keep our web site fresh and interesting. Something that automatically updates or refreshes with new content is even better. And if the content can be specific to your location - it’s a home run.
So when you find something that marries location specific information with content that changes over time, it’s a Widget to add! DidIt.com provides visitors the opportunity to share what they have done in the location of their choice.
We use the widget DidIt.com on our rental pages, much like we use Walk Score. It provides interesting content and can be built around an area or location, specific to an apartment community or even a smaller property. Not only can it show a prospective resident the fun things that can be done at or around a specific location, but it can engage them to interact with your web site by drawing them in to share what they have done in the area. This sort of interaction is the best part of Web 2.0 content.
While DidIt by itself won’t rent your vacant unit, it can bring life to your marketing page. It can also act as a tool to help differentiate your site from the hundreds of other sites your prospect will have visited in their apartment search.
Here’s what the widget looks like for San Francisco:

We are real fans of DidIt giving it 4 Lightner Lights. Try it. Just like WalkScore has become a “must have” web site tool for any apartment rental page or any “for sale” home site, we suspect DidIt.com is not far behind.
