Realtor.com Hacked Day 7: Nobody Notices or Cares

For the seventh day in a row Realtor.com is failing to communicate with its community regarding the hack that we first reported on June 4th. Realtor.com is approaching one week with no blog posts, no communication with its paid users and increasing doubt in its ability to run a blog, let alone one of the largest real estate portals in the world, Realtor.com. This is bad folks.

Another stunning story comes from 4Realz.net with news that weeks ago, following in Zillow’s footsteps, Realtor.com launched a new home estimates feature. Again, nobody noticed and nobody cared. Perhaps this is why Realtor.com thinks they can behave in the manner they have and  get away with it. The fact is that if nobody notices what you do or don’t do and you are a company with the reach and funding of Realtor.com / NAR, that should be a warning that you are not doing things right, not something to be used as a shield to hide behind.

    My take? Don’t hold your breath that anyone from realtor.com is going to get back to you. ;)

  2. My feelings will be very hurt if they don’t. :)

    How odd that your name is being used in place of my name??? I must have mistyped that in my first comment. ;)

  4. I saw that…. I do stuff like that allllll the time. My spelling gets weird sometimes as well…. I’ve just started using then in replace of than in the wrong spots for no apparent reason…… I’m doing it every day…. weird.
