I haven't been posting much lately, probably because I spend way to much time making my posts all pretty - I love eye candy. But it's paid off anyway - a couple of the last ones became featured on Localism, so they earned me 400 points or more. Woohoo.
Stable Road In Spreckelsville and Ho'okipa Beach Park must be doing something right. I'm not quite sure I know what it is, but if points and juice is what you're shooting for, then check them out and do something like that for your neighborhoods.
I'm glad to know that putting the extra effort into them is getting noticed. Thanks ActiveRain - I appreciate it. If this is getting me Google Juice - I'll have a double!

Both of the posts look great - I need to get my camera and get out there. Thanks for the advice.
Georgina, those were BEAUTIFUL posts and the features were well deserved. I especially loved the header shot on your park post - WOW!
Miriam - Thanks, and congrats for being first to comment!
Cindy - Likewise, I prefer to read colorful posts, not boring old stats! : )
Brian - I'm starting to figure things out around here!
Karen - I have gotten into the habit of taking my camera everywhere, to the point of being annoying to my husband. He is now used to me saying " I can blog that!"
Vincent - you too.... take some more pictures.... lots of them
Renee S. - thanks for your kind words
Renee B - I really like it too, and wish I could have more time to do one a day
Peggy - Sometimes I'll get one started and save it as a draft, while I work on getting pictures together. Othertimes the pictures will inspire the post. Whatever it takes.
Al - thanks, go ahead and use those ideas
Jason - it's very easy, and will find lengthy discussions on how to do it in the Newbie group, or just fumble around with the tool bar at the top and click on the little tree icon and take it from there.
Lisa - thanks! Glad you stopped by.
Angie - well next time you come, there will be plenty of info for you!
Georgina, congratulations on the features in Localism. I loved meeting you and sharing lunch at my favorite place, Mama's Fish House. Active Rain is a great place to find and get to know other Realtors from all over. And blogging brings you lots of google juice...enjoy!
I'll give you a call when I leave Kahana and I'm in Specklesville.
Georgina
Congratulations! Thanks for the heads up...as a Newbie, it's appreciated.
Merry Christmas
Jennifer - It is very nice, and we don't get hurricanes very often either.
Gena - I hope you do call.... Spreckelsville is nice, and close to the airport too.
Wayne - welcome to AR!
Georgina, very nice. I'll admit I haven't really concentrated on Localism as much as I should....I never have my camera nearby when I need it LOL!!
Nice job!
