I’m pleased to announce the release of my new WordPress plugin, FPP-Pano.
It’s a relatively simple viewer plugin that allows you to embed one or more QTVR panoramas on your WordPress website. This is great for showing virtual home tours for real estate, area attractions and streetscapes, or mountaintop panoramic views.
Since it uses Adobe Flash, it will work on nearly every modern browser with no user installation needed.
If you develop websites or do virtual tours for Real Estate, or are in the real estate business, you might find my WordPress plugin useful.
Check out the sample panoramas, or download the plugin.

Mike Parker, in this article for Broker Agent News, makes a very good point about agent websites:
Maybe you have just shrugged it off; maybe you’ve given up, maybe you keep trying. One thing is certain: if you are on a platform that is not search engine friendly, you have about as much chance of turning your personal Internet situation around as I have of winning the Powerball lottery.
Many agents ask me what is wrong with template sites and re-using a bunch of content provided by a real estate website provider, and the answer is pretty simple.
Relevance.
