Enter a user name and tab to the next box and enter a password, (On the right of the username if it is available it will appear, if not available you will have to select a different user name) tab to the next box and type your password again, tab to the next box and type in your email address (you must be able to receive email. Note: some email providers such as AOL might block email from users you never received email from), lastly tab to the next box and type the security code you see in the image. Click on the "SUBMIT" button. If you get an error go back and fix it. Once submitted it should say so and now you need to check your email. Once you receive a confirmation email, click on the link provided in the email to verify your account. Once you click on the link in the email it will take you back to our site and say "Registration was successful". Click on the link to "go to main page / Enter". On the menu on the top right you will see "HI," and your username. Put your mouse over your user name and click on the link "Add Listing".
No you can begin filling out your information for your property rental. You will see the pricing next to the options. When you are ready to upload or add your pictures, click on the "file folder" to the right of Upload images. Here you will get a box pop up which will allow you to upload (send to the website) your pictures. Click on the "Batch" tab first. Click "Browse" and navigate to where your picture files are on your computer. Select the file or files and click "Open". If you receive an error uploading your pictures try a different browser. Some internet providers have problems with different browsers. Or you may contact us and we can help you.The files will upload automatically. Wait until the file or files upload. You will begin to see the files listed in the window. The system will automatically resize them for you. That's it. Once the files are uploaded, Close the the pop up window. If you need to delete a picture you can click the check box next to that picture and delete it.
Now you are back to your listing. Continue filling out as much as possible for your listing. The more information the better. A potential renter wants to get as much information as possible and you want your listing to stand out. Make sure to fill in all boxes unless it says uneccessary next to it. If you leave something blank that is not optional you will have to start all over again.
How to Add the Google Map to your Listing
You will see two boxes: GPS Coord X and GPS Coord Y. These values will show a Google Map on your listing. To get these values click here. After you click you will see on that site: Enter an address or location: Enter your address complete with zip code. Then click on Geocode it. You will then get a list. Look for the line longitude, latitude. Example: longitude, latitude: 32.7367371, -97.1108937.
Copy the first code: 32.7367371 and paste it into the GPS Coord X box. Take the second code: -97.1108937 and paste it into the GPS Coord Y box.

Definition of listings:
Residential listing, residential showcase and corporate showcase are three different categories. Choose the category you want your listing to be published in.
Gold Listing is in addition to your listing. A gold listing will add a thumbnail (picture) of your property on the front page for maximum exposure. The thumbnail picture is the very first picture you upload in sequence. There are 10 places for gold listings. If these are all filled gold listings will rotate on every page refresh or new visitor that comes to the site.
Virtual Tour is an effect where it will play all your pictures in sequence. The pictures will pan around and zoom in and out and go to the next one in sequence and at the end, start all over again giving you a virtual tour effect. Make sure your pictures are taken one way (in other words don't take a normal shot then turn the camera sideways for another shot).
Front Page Virtual Rotating Tour is the same as the virtual tour above except that it only pans around your first picture uploaded and is displayed on the front page center. Anyone who purchases this option will be in the playing sequence. While you image is being displayed a user can click on it and be taken directly to your listing page.
