Thank you! Not really a good enough reason. I figured a leaderboard website and the actual property listing website would make sense to keep them split up. I also want to code the second website as this one is no-code, which seems to be quite limiting. But a lot of people say that I need to keep it as one site, so maybe I will!
The listings will be scraped primarily. And I'm doing cold outreach to real estate agencies to let them post properties. But I think it's an easier sell if I have some traffic on the website. I know land.com! They don't have an API I think. I looked for good API's but can't really find them or they are really expensive.
Yeah my gut reaction is that you'll dilute your seo/ efforts having to build awareness and drive traffic to different brands. With some DNS and server reverse proxy finagling, you could maintain your no-code site and coded listings site on the same domain.
I dig it. The more scattered the data is, the harder it will be... but as im sure you're aware that's also a huge signal that there's value in aggregating it!
propwire.com is also free. i don't think they have an api, but you might be able to scrape vacant lot listings from them
Hm good one about the SEO, I never thought of it like that. Nice that you think it's a valuable concept! I'm in the validation phase so this comment makes my day. Thanks so much for recommending propwire, I didn't know it! I'll definitely try that out. Did you use them yourself?
I just found out about it a couple weeks ago from a random investment newsletter i subscribe to. Haha honestly mostly just using it to snoop on homes in my area since you can see historical data on ownership, sales, and loans for a given property.
