BrokerAgentSocial - an Unusual Real Estate Social Network

The real estate blogosphere is mature and well defined. The bloggers, Active Rainers, Facebookers and Twitterers all follow each other and know each other. The new social network BrokerAgentSocial is remarkably different in that I and others I've messaged like Kristal and Derek don't recognize any of the "Usual Suspects". Here are the members I know of a total 4,800 members

Kristal Kraft
Stefan Swanepoel
Jeff Dowler
Jennifer Fivelsdal
Laurie Manny
Derek Overbey
Frances Flynn Thorsen
Vicki Lloyd
Colleen Kulikowski

Question: How do all these thousands of real estate agents find BrokerAgentSocial?
Observation: On the other hand, pleased to see thousands of brand new agent faces beginning to adopt social media.

    It's kinda weird to "walk" into a place like that and not really know anyone.

    It's operated by BrokerAgentNews, so I suspect most members are BAN subscribers.

    Broker Agent News has a pretty huge list of people that subscribe to their newsletter. I think they leveraged that list for the launch of the new site.

      I think Broker Agent News did a good job with BrokerAgentSocial. What's interesting is the seeming lack of intersection between the readers of BAN and the participants in the now more "traditional" real estate social network Active Rain.

    I was wondering how they grew so fast and figured it out pretty quickly as they have a huge mailing list from those that subscribed to their newsletter.

    One thing I noticed that isn't good is the profiles pages aren't being indexed by Google. I joined on February 16th and my profile page hasn't been indexed yet.

    I checked Pat's profile and it hasn't been indexed either and his profile was created back in December!!!
