About your ByTheOwner Statistics

Some of our customers have reported to us strange behaviors in the Advanced Stats tool of their listing. We have investigated the problem and are actually working on it.

Why did this happen?

Since the beginning of last week, we’ve been working on the implementation of a new dedicated stats server. We’ve had to change a lot of the pages and scripts of the website to do so, which caused the problem you might be experiencing.

We are working hard today to try to get the situation back to the normal as fast as possible. I’m pretty sure we’ll be able to get to a result you’ll judge satisfying, and that you’ll understand that we are doing those moves in order to be able to provide you with the best tools around.

Thanks a lot for your understanding,

Small change to the buttons orders in bytheowner listings

A very simple change was implemented a couple of minutes ago. It’s no big deal, but we’ve decided to change the buttons order in the listings.

The View on the Map button is now located more to right, just above the map when it opens. The Enlarge Pictures button is now in the left corner, directly above the small pictures.

A small change was made today to the search results.

The “Order By” default value, which was set to “new listings first” since a couple of months have been rolled back to “less expensive first”.
