Thanks for all the great comments on the new site - you would have noticed some new features have been added this past month since we went live on April 1st:

1. New Suburb Trend Charts - groovy new flash based charts build before your eyes, plus all our client sites received a free upgrade to the new format.

2. Home Opens on a Map - search for home opens, throw the results on a map, and then mouse over the property to see home open times

3. New SOLD Database - 45,000+ archived properties tagged as 'SOLD' now are searchable by suburb and month last updated, excellent free promotion for you. Just make sure to flag properties as SOLD and put them in archive when ready.

4. New 'Search for agent by name' - in SELLING section, enter an aussiehome.com client's first or family name to find them. More free exposure for our clients. ALSO, enter your first name and surname after www.aussiehome.com to go straight to your own agent page: e.g.www.aussiehome.com/first-secondname

My IT Department (OFFER)

Help for your computers!Ideal for agencies with 5 or more PCs, 'My IT Department' is a new service offering from the same people that host the aussiehome.com servers and websites.

It is well known that most small businesses do not have the luxury of employing a full-time IT staff who can respond instantly to every problem as they occur. Lacking in choie, most small businesses resort to calling out some "fix it" guy. But while your computers are down, how are you going to issue property reports, send invoices and update your listings on aussiehome.com?

It's a fact, computer downtime is costing you lost productivity and lost opportunities.

Netway Business Solutions specialize in maintenance solutions to prevent computer downtime. Fix it before it breaks!

To find out more about email My IT Department and you'll also receive one hour of remediation services FREE (RRP value $120). This offer is exclusive to aussiehome.com customers. Valid for first 8 aussiehome.com customers only. Offer expires June 30, 2009.

"I would recommend Netway to anyone, and no I'm NOT receiving any benefit for telling you this... (apart from the knowledge that you'll be looked after !)" - Charlie Gunningham, CoFounder and MD, aussiehome.com

News, Links and Stuff...

Congrats to Ashley Comrie of ACTON Dalkeith who told us correctly where our new billboard is - it was on the west side of Stirling Highway as you head from North Freo in Mosman Park - just past the Caltex garage on the left as you head north. She won a bottle of white wine. Well done!

new billboard - but where have you seen it?!

New billboards are out, the Freo campaign has moved over the West Perth, and also along Stirling Highway for the next few months.
