I have been analysing some web stats from the past month and I was wondering how many local vancouverites use the mls website.  From a users perspective, the servers are slow, and often doesn’t load properly.  On the other hand, the realtylink website is much faster, incorporates larger pictures and has a few very useful tools for people searching for homes in the Vancouver area.  The Open House listing is a great tool for buyers, offering a centralized location where I can find Open Houses in my area. 

Currently, our website is getting lots of hits from overseas, notably Hong Kong, Australia, Taiwan, China, The European Union, South Korea and Great Britain.  The actual list of countries that have visited our site is truly astounding.  So my question then (since we are somewhat new to Vancouver), does the general public know about RealtyLink?  or do most of them labour through the slowness of MLS.ca?
