		<description>I have to say all my dealings with reps and management from Domain and REA has been wonderful.

I think the people on the floor doing the job at a local level are wonderful.

Renae/Scott from REA - Andrew/Clive from Domain - Big Ticks Guys

And my recent exposure to MyHome reps seems a continuation of that.

To CEO&#039;s of those sites - i applaud the people you select to represent your business. The agents in here give &quot;the portals&quot; a hard time - but behind this are real people doing a great job.

(Attach this to your salary review guys - especially since - you guys collectively can&#039;t deal with me)

And as Rolf Harris would say - Keep on Keeping On

I am still gonna fight the Licenced Nationally - why can&#039;t i advertise angle -</description>

		<description>HI ALL

Having one of my co workers let me know that Anthony was good enough to give me a mention i thought i had better check it out.

My role with domain.com.au is Group Sales Manager for QLD, NT, WA &amp; SA.

I see a number of bloggers are afraid to reveal their true indentity which is interesting indeed.

Anthony yes McGraths are a great client to domain.com.au.

The one thing though especially for the markets that i look after is to show that we are not only strong in our traditional markets of NSW &amp; Vic but have grown to be a true force locally in the other states.

In Qld the launch of www.brisbanetimes.com.au continues to build the Fairfax presence we have locally and that domain.com.au we dont just deliver interstate traffic.

Like the forum and feedback.

Have a good day.</description>

		<description>Just did a check on all major newspaper sites. All major newspapers in each area the most local content was 9 news stories for the day yesterday, in Tasmania the Mercury had 5 local articles on their site for the day.

So Brisbane Times is actually as good or if not better than all of the rivals.

ABC News had the most for each area for each day by a long shot.</description>

		<description>Dear Mark  - so you are stating that there will be little to no local content on the site? What exactly is it that you are offering that is unique? I am trying to understand what it is you are trying to achieve here.

Now I do not think that people were stating that geographical locations depict inhabitants worldliness. However if you do want to prove your theory, just look at Mossman.

		<description>(I work for Fairfax Digital, at dmain.com.au)

Hi,

Domain, Drive and MyCareer are just some of the properties Fairfax owns.  While the three pillars of traditional classifieds - houses, cars, jobs - are important they are not all that Fairfax Digital is about.  We have quite a lot of web businesses such as the main mastheads - SMH and The Age - we have RSVP in the personals, cracker.com.au in general classifieds (brace yourselves if you plan on visiting their raunchier sections :) , sports sites such as Rugby Heaven, Games sites offering crosswords and sudoku and other puzzles, stayz which is a leader in the privately owned holiday accommodation market, travel sites like Walkabout, and many more.  and then there&#039;s all the great stuff happening in New Zealand, with TradeMe which is doing phenomenally well.

While Domain.com.au is one of the biggest sites at Fairfax, selling us into the Brisbane market is not a primary motivator for establishing the Brisbane times.  I have nothing to do with the product, but I would nonetheless have to disagree with Dave Platter in that I believe that people in Queensland would still care about what&#039;s been happening in Indonesia and abroad.  It&#039;s not nice to think of people from Queensland as ignorant of world affairs ;)</description>

		<description>Anthony,

McGrath agents advertise on REA too. Where did you come across the statement that &quot;Chooses to Advertise his clients properties on DOMAIN

Domain - the choice of leading Real Estate Agents across Australia.&quot;

I am somewhat curious ?</description>

		<description>Good Evening,

Is it really the case that &quot;the times they are changing&quot;, or is it about the time that people are realising?

Is it more the case that everyone is just copying everyone else</description>

		<description>Sam - is it ok - if Domain PR reference your comment.

I think some of the stuff out of McGrath is exceptional too. I just think it is funny the relationship - and if i was in PR or Marketing at Domain - i would be screaming that from the rafters.

Especially in markets where they are less strong - because McGrath does provide such a high profile within this industry. (Hint Hint: Brisbane Gold Coast Sunshine Coast - are you reading this Andrew Turner)</description>
