August 11, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
Bothell, Washington, USA - The ActiveRain Real Estate Network today announces the launch of ActiveRain Canada, opening up The Network to real estate professionals from across Canada.

The ActiveRain Real Estate Network is an on-line community of real estate professionals networking together on-line to improve their business lives off-line. The Network provides tools for networking among members as well as simple and effective self-promotion tools.

Members joining ActiveRain can set up their personal profile in under five minutes. Their profiles are highly search engine optimized allowing user generated content to rapidly rank highly in search engines. These profiles significantly enhance the quality of a professional's web presence. Through tools such as community blogging and forums, members keep in touch with what is happening in different real estate markets and share knowledge with other real estate professionals.

The addition of Canadian real estate professionals is a significant enhancement to the community as many are looking to give and receive referrals across the border. There are plenty of opportunities for referrals. In eleven weeks The Network has grown to over 2700 members, making it the fastest growing on-line community of real estate professionals. Before the launch of ActiveRain Canada, many Canadian real estate agents wrote in asking for the opportunity to be able to bring in their referrals.

In addition to networking, self-promotion, and referrals, The ActiveRain Real Estate Network provides a means for members to become recognized as experts in their local market places or in their niche. Through ActiveRain's blogging channels and syndication of content members are able to achieve high exposure for the articles they write related to their businesses and the real estate industry.

ActiveRain (www.activerain.com) is a Bellevue, Washington based B2B, real estate technologies company, building tools to grow businesses through on-line applications. In June the company launched The ActiveRain Real Estate Network, the industry’s largest and first on-line social networking and self-promotion tool.
