This is a big update and we’re very proud of it. It brings on some cool new features and a much clearer nav panel. We worked hard to make sure that every tool was available at the right spot since the older version was getting kind of messy…
What’s new?
New very cool dashboard
Organized navbar
Buyers’s feedback section
Your use of the tool meter
Organize your pictures update
Plus tons of contextual tips and advices
We really do hope you enjoy those changes and are able to start using the new section quite swiftly… Don’t hesitate to let us know if you encounter any problems!
Thanks a lot!
PS : Special thanks to Frank, Patrice P-L and Gui for todays rush!
We’re launching today a new tool that will help you find the best property according to it’s location and the places you visit everyday!
Developed for a BleuBlancRouge ad campaign targetting the Montreal QC market, this new feature will be available to all Canadian customers in the search results. They will be able to calculate the distance between different addresses and the homes available on ByTheOwner.com
Why such a tool? Isn’t it interesting, and even essential, to know the distance between your future home and your office? Your child’s daycare? Mom’s home? That sure is a big factor that you need to consider. Even more with the gas prices these days!
Built using the Google Maps geocoding technology, this tool was developed pretty quickly during last weeks, so if you encounter any problems, or have suggestions, we’d like to know! Leave us comments using the box below so we can make this feature something you’ll enjoy using in your search!
We’re constantly looking for ways to improve AdSense by developing and supporting features which drive the best monetization results for our publishers. Sometimes, this requires retiring existing features so we can focus our efforts on the ones that will be most effective in the long term. For this reason, we will be retiring the AdSense Referrals program during the last week of August.
Even though it’s sad news for many people, I really do understand the “focus” problem they had. We have to deal with this reality everyday and it causes many headaches…
Bye bye referrals! Now let’s hope the adsense team will be able to use all this extra focus to offer us an even better service!
