		<description>[...] The debate goes back and forth on whether or not you should force search registration or all it to be voluntary. Everyone has an opinion, of course, but statistical data determines the winner. Chime in on this post with your results. [...]</description>

		<description>We are getting between 8%-20% conversion rate, (visitor to lead) depending on the keyword.  But our form has many more fields than yours, can&#039;t help it due to the way our system is.</description>

		<description>Sorry I&#039;m late to this conversation.  We have one of the leading websites in our area - and we require sign-in to see any kind of listings.  Of our traffic to our site, about 5% actually log-in.  However, I would much rather do it the way you do Jeff - after some data is displayed.  We just don&#039;t have that option in our state.  The MLS is strictly controlled at the broker level, and getting customized IDX is not now possible - maybe in the future.</description>

		<description>Jeff,&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Those are some great numbers...So I have a question (it should be probably be in a separate post).  How do you distribute and &quot;follow up with your team&quot; with all of those leads.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;For example, if you have 25-50 or more leads coming in a day how did you build your team around that number of leads.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I understand the way your lead distribution works in your system...but how do you follow up to make sure the agents are doing their job.  Is it all referral based?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I am curious how YOU run your team with all those leads. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If you don&#039;t mind...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Don</description>

		<description>Jeff,&lt;br&gt;Just wondering...do you think or do you have metrics to prove if  there&#039;s a qualitative difference in the web leads that registered voluntarily vs mandatory?</description>
