Record traffic and leads claimed by OnTheMarket

OnTheMarket said last night that both its traffic and leads reached record levels in June.

It said it had over 8m visits last month, a rise of 33% since January.

OTM also said the number of branches listing with OTM continues to grow, adding “We continue to work to build the portal and to strengthen competition in  a market previous dominated by the two large established portal groups”.

It gave no numbers as to membership, but added: “Please do all you can to promote [OTM] to your clients, to your applicants and to the wider property-seeking public.’

    Please do all you can to promote [OTM] to your clients, to your applicants and to the wider property-seeking public.

    “Hi. Join OTM. It’s great!”

    “Hmm, okay! How many people are part of it already?”

    “Erm, they won’t tell anybody…”

    “Right…Don’t call us, we’ll call you.”

      Or in the real world you could ‘do all you can to promote [OTM] to your clients, to your applicants and to the wider property-seeking public’ by looking on both portals and telling them that OTM has more properties than Zoopla? That’s what we do!

        So basically lying?  Nice.  Remind me to never recommend your services.

          HOW can El Burro be lying if he/she is, in fact, telling the truth, 1TB?

          Your valiant effort at protecting your share price and/or whatever other vested interest you have in Zoopla is noted – but you need to start admitting that the sky could be staring to fall in… one small piece at a time.

          Trying thinking before posting. It works a treat.

            There is no doubt that everyone is either thinking about what they post, Property Pundit – or someone has thought about it for them.

            Whether or not others agree with them is the issue.

            But, hey – when two parties agree on everything, one of them is superfluous.

      During a growth phase I don’t really see how it’s subscriber numbers have any bearing on the request for the industry to help support an industry owned site (assuming there aren’t 2 subscribers which we know is obviously not the case). The purpose of industry owned sites is to disrupt the rapacious corporate price setting behemoths like rightmove and Zoopla. And surprise surprise industry owned sites need to leverage the support of, wait for it……the industry! Namely the Real Estate Agents.

        This would include online ‘estate agents’ then?!

    Why should you have to promote a product to your client??  they should know about it…like they do wrongmove.

    Also I would like to know when onthemarket and all the lemmings who are still on rightmove intend on taking them out of action….

    Looks like onthemarket was created by rightmove to kill ZOOPLA at the moment….

     

    onthemarket is like brexit…sounded like a good idea but the creators of it have all jumped ship…

    Good to hear OTM doing so well (cough).  Could we see the trend line visitor and leads chart then please?  Same again next month to show this isn’t just a one off?  Thanks

      I don’t think you’re based anywhere near me – so I will send a long-distance response.

      Also known as a far cough.

      ;o)
