Blogging is hard work and takes time and effort to have content that is relevant to your market area. With that said there are plenty of consumers desperate to find some good local real estate content.
I am in the business for the long haul and like your article states, blogging allows the reader to get to know you and your voice. Nice article!

To answer your question “Who are you?”, the correct answer should be “Both.”
When used in conjunction with each other, status updates (Twitter, FB) are an effective way to drive traffic to what matter most in the first place…your blog. There are a variety of plug-ins that make it automatic, so you don’t have to spend one iota of time or effort making this happen.
But you’re absolutely right — status updating by itself adds very little value. You’re just a middle-man. Another way of looking at the value proposition is this: I have clients who have chosen me because what of what they read on my site. I don’t have one client who came to me because of what they read on Twitter. (But they may have unknowingly found my blog that way…)

Good point Chuck, I use Twitter to drive traffic to recent posts and also Face Book.

Benn – As someone who you know to be opinionated, I have to say you just gave a me a bit of food for thought. Although I’m not a 24 hour a day RT-machine, I do quite often when I see something that I just feel needs to be seen. Now of course, I can’t write an opinion post around each thing I want to share, but perhaps at times, I’m missing my chance to lend a voice to the conversation and bring more attention to the matter at hand.
Once again, I stop by AgentGenius for a moment and now have a lot to think about. Thanks Benn.

Thats a great point you raise and I will definately re-tool my tweets to add more value. I’ve been searching for something to flesh out the Twitter experience and I guess all I had to do was change my mindset. Thanks Benn!

I’m of the opinion that tweets should not be substantive in and of themselves (how could they be?), but should serve to introduce others to content of some depth. That said, I don’t always practice what I preach. Thanks for this.
