Listing on Zillow and Yahoo.

I thought that my listing would appear on both Zillow and Yahoo. Yet, I do not see my listing on Yahoo.

So after reading the other questions below, it sounds like a manual listing such as the one you did won't show up on Yahoo. 

You'll need a 'feed' listing.  You can do that on postlets for free and syndicate the listing to a whole bunch of the real estate sites all at once.

Good grief! I just noticed that my ad on Yahoo was posted 2 days ago. That must mean that there is a delay between completing the Zillow on line form and a Yahoo presence.

I see that my Yahoo ad has almost no data associated with it, although I definitely included that info with Zillow and with Postlets. No description. No school info, etc. Includes MLS#, list price, and photos only. That's it.

Frustrating.

Is this user error again?

Postlets was the key. Thanks Geordy.

Geordy,
My initial intent was to post a listing on Yahoo Real Estate as I've done in the past. However, I discovered that Yahoo and Zillow have merged their real estate services. So, from Yahoo I was directed to Zillow. I was convinced by both sites that my listing would appear on both. Yahoo required an XML feed. Zillow offered an ordinary web form. I chose to use the web form. I just checked again and my listing isn't on Yahoo.
Thanks,
Rick

How/where did you input your listing?  Did you use a syndication service such as postlets.com?
