After attempting many of the available ‘real estate’ Campton Village Realty in Campton, NH.  The website, www.camptonvillagerealty.com is the first site by TotalScope to incorporate an IDX, Internet Data Exchange, plugin to bring live MLS (Multiple Listing Service) real estate listings into the pages of the site.

After attempting many of the available ‘real estate’ plugins available through the community, we decided that nothing could compete with a live feed of real estate listing data from the local MLS in New Hampshire, which is the Northern New England Real Estate Network or NNEREN.  Though the Campton Village Realty website is employing the Plugin “Real Estate Plugin” to showcase its non-mls vacation rentals listings, the plugin used for the IDX far exceeds the non-IDX system.

The IDX plugin used for this application is the dsIDXpress by Diverse Solutions and for a small monthyl fee, they provide a live feed of data from most MLS’s to your website.  So far, so good.  The application seems very stable and has many features providing for much customization.  One feature in particular is the ability to add multiple variable strings to the query URL making it easy to create tailored searches of the MLS and resulting displays of the results in your own SEO friendly pages.  One example of this is how we created a query of all listings in the city of Campton, for the Agency Office of the Client.  Here is what the link looks like: http://www.camptonvillagerealty.com/idx/city/campton/?idx-q-ListingOfficeID=2343.

The plugin also allows the use of “short codes” making it extremely quick and easy to display any number of established search queries on any page of your blog.  There are many other IDX suppliers out there, and they may be very capable and stable, but for now, we are please with this.

As we are in the business of marketing our clients and are focused on results… we can’t pass up the opportunity to promote them directly here.  So… If you are looking to buy or sell real estate in central New Hampshire, check out Campton Village Realty…and the brand new website.  Campton Village Realty specializes in real estate sales and vacation rentals in the towns of Campton, Waterville Valley, Thornton, Woodstock, Lincoln, Holderness and surrounding NH towns.

Owner of the motel and select person for the town of Lincoln, NH where the hotel Want a real White Mountains experience?  Try an overnight at the quaint and quiet Riverbank Motel and Cabins.  TotalScope is honored to have this small family operation as a new client and would like to welcome them with open arms.

Owner of the motel and select person for the town of Lincoln, NH where the hotel is located, Deanna Huot, has contracted TotalScope Marketing to perform some Social Media Marketing consultation and Search Engine Optimization.  Deanna realizes that in this tough economy, she’s got to move her business out into the fastest growing space on the internet… Facebook and Twitter.  She also realizes that search engines don’t just automatically give you good rankings on their search engine results pages.  So, we will help her get in the top-ten for her keyword phrases.

First steps in the process for Riverbank Motel and Cabins is to set up some analytics on their current website.  Then, after some collection and analysis of the data, we can make some determinations on which direction to take.  In the meantime, we have new social media accounts created and posting already happening. 

For many, the learning curve on social media is steep.  So, part of the process for TotalScope clients involves a slow orientation into the social culture online.  We create and manage the accounts for the client and slowly bring them into the culture by teaching them what its all about, and allow them to find their own niche.  Riverbank will soon be tweeting and facebooking everyday with the rest of us.  And, it will be real, with genuine and interesting content.

Now, take my word for it…and check them out next time you want a nice little getaway to the White Mountains.  You’ll be pleasantly surprised.

Comfort Inn New Website Launched

We are pleased to announce that another new user interface has been recently launched by TotalScope Marketing.  Please have a look at the all new Comfort Inn & Suites Loon website at www.comfortinnloon.com.  Working over the past few months with the staff at the Comfort Inn was a real pleasure.  From conceptual design to implementation, the staff worked directly with us to get a website that meets their goals of improved exposure, improved customer relations, and increased reservation activity.

Like many others, this site uses the WordPress platform, coupled with a mix of customizations to 2 different thems to create the presence we were looking for.  The color scheme &  imagery is branded to follow Choice Hotel’s requirements.  The photo galleries were chosen to show the customer the endless vacation possibilities in the client’s home area, Loon Mountain, New Hampshire.

This site is just one of many that have been in the pipeline for several months.  In the coming weeks, you can expect to see new interfaces for Campton Village Realty, The Beacon Resort, and Security Storage.

The Comfort Inn & Suites Loon is located in the growing White Mountain town of Lincoln, NH.  With access to 2 of the East’s top ski resorts, Loon and Cannon, and a wealth of vacation activities, this hotel is in prime demand.

We After several months of working with the staff at Riess Construction in Plymouth, NH, we are proud to announce the launch of their new website under a new domain.  The former website domain, www.riessconst.com is now acting as a temporary feeder to the new domain www.riessconstruction.com, but will soon be taken down and completely removed.

We employed Wordpress as the base content management system, and customized a theme to create a new, professional, fully integrated user interface that meets the needs of the client.  The process for creating the site included several meetings with the staff and a few email/phone conversations.  In the end, it was a terrific experience which resulted in a great new site.

The Riess Construction owners, Mike, Pat, and Rob Riess, were all very much involved in the development of the content for the website and in the design.  We’d like to thank them for all of their work as well.  Their original website was not getting any real traffic, and virtually no referral business.  So, now we have a new site, that is much more interactive and user-friendly, with updated content, and has been optimized for search engines.  We have installed Google Analytics to measure the progress of our efforts and are already seeing some improvements in the traffic.

Riess Constuction, located in Plymouth, NH specializes in metal buildings, wood frame construction, insulated metal panels, and crane service.  They have been in business throughout New England for over 10 years, delivering quality construction contracting with experience, integrity, and a solid safety record.

Because the event is a grass-roots effort involving many of the local North Woodstock businesses, the chamber of commerce, and residents of Lincoln and Woodstock, the planners are all donating time, services, and in many cases, MONEY, to make this event possible. As owner, host, & developer of http://www.kancfreedomfest.com (website), TotalScope Marketing is doing its part to make this event a big success.

Every year, the Laconia Motorcycle Rally in the middle of June draws literally tens of thousands of bikers to the region. One of the most ridden roads in the state is the Kancamagus Scenic Byway, a 33 mile road winding through some of the most beautiful mountains of the Northeast, surely of the White Mountains of NH. The aim of the Kanc Freedom Fest, is to lure bikers that would normally pass through Lincoln Woodstock into the businesses that make-up the community of Lincoln Woodstock. There is a natural market for business during the week and Lincoln Woosdtock stands to gain tremendously from this festival.

The website, fully optimized for their preferred keywords, and structured to retain the rankings they had achieved in a previous iteration, was launched in early January. Today, we learned that the Maple Lodge Cabins website has earned placement honors with Destination Nexus, the destination website and reservation software employed by the client.

nexus which is a directory of specialty lodging all over the nation.
