New KW Website Powered by Placester


Your KW Website powered by Placester is the newest website provided to KW agents and is mobile
responsive, SEO friendly, and has IDX and blogging capabilities built in.

2. In the top black menu bar, hover over Technology
3. Click KW Websites
4. Click the red Go to my website button in the center of the page
a. If this button is not available, your site needs to be activated. In order to activate this site, please
ask your MCA to add your MLS ID to the KW Whitepages. We would do this for you, or include
instructions for how to do it yourself, but unfortunately only MCAs have that capability. Within 48
hours after they add it, you will receive a notification to your KW email, and a pop up notification
when you log in to mykw, that the site is available. Once you receive that notification, just
complete this form and we'll get it all set up: http://scottleroymarketing.com/placester-setup

myKW Cheat Sheet

What is IDX?
IDX stands for Internet Data eXchange, which is the way that the MLS sends listing data to the agent's
websites. Each KW agent should have three (3) IDX connections set up:
Wolfnet/eAgentC for the KW App. This enables app users to search the full MLS, not just KW listings,
and enables agents to see who has created an account and saved properties.
Marketleader/eEdge. Allows eEdge site visitors to search the full MLS, and enables agents to create
listing alerts and "listing-enabled" marketing materials within eEdge
Placester/KW Website. Enables site visitors to search the full MLS.
To learn what is required to set up an IDX feed for each of these providers, either contact your MLS directly, or
the site providers themselves:
Wolfnet: support@wolfnet.com, 1 (866) 965-3638
Marketleader: eedgesupport@kw.com, 1 (800) 491-4234
Placester: support-KW@placester.com, 1 (800) 728-8391

Global Filters
On this page, you can choose which listings visitors to your site can find. I.e. Only commercial, only residential,
only for sale versus for rent, only a certain price range, only certain zip codes or cities. Note that these settings
will limit what listings can be found anywhere on your site, so it would be unwise to make these settings too
narrow (i.e. only your listings, or only your offices listings)

KW Website Powered By Placester F.A.Q.


My KW Website is not yet available on my account, but I want to know the address to use on marketing
materials. What will my site address be?
By default, your KW Website address is the same as your KW email address, but replacing the
@ symbol with a .. I.e. scottleroy@kw.com becomes scottleroy.kw.com
Dots, dashes, or underscores in the KW email are exceptions:
scott.leroy@kw.com becomes scott-leroy.kw.com
scott-leroy@kw.com becomes scott-leroy.kw.com
scott_leroy@kw.com becomes scott-leroy.kw.com
Note that you can follow the instructions in the Custom Domain section to edit the part before
.kw.com, and these guidelines would not apply
Why does nothing happen when I click the Email Me link on my KW Website?
The Email Me link will open the default mail program set on each computer that visits the site.
If a default mail program has not been set, nothing will happen
Why does Outlook/Mac Mail/Thunderbird/etc. open when I click the Email Me link on my KW Website?
See above. This behavior will be different for each and every computer, depending on what the
default mail program has been set as
Is it possible to show my listings on the home page, but then my offices listings if I dont have any?
Unfortunately no, that is not a possibility at this time. The featured listings section can show
either your listings or your offices listings
Why does my Featured Listings section show listings from [Insert City Here] which is very far from my
actual service area?
By default, the Featured Listings section will display the highest-priced listings in your entire
MLS, which are often in bigger cities. Edit your featured listings filters to update this.
If the KWLS is selected as the MLS under IDX Integration, it will show the highest listings in
the KWLS, which are usually in larger metropolitan areas
Can I forward my KW Website powered by Placester to another site?
Absolutely! Simply add the domain of the other site as the custom domain in the Custom
Domain section, but dont complete the steps for changing the DNS settings for the domain.
This way, when someone types your ______.kw.com address into the address bar, it will
redirect over to whatever other site you entered
Can I add a Facebook/Blog/Twitter/Activerain/etc. widget to my site home page?
Unfortunately no. The templates provided by placester are the only way to make changes to the
layout/look of the home page
How do I create a Landing or Squeeze page on my site?
There is no option for a page that only has the option to collect contact information in exchange
for something you provide to the visitor (like a home valuation or neighborhood guide) before
allowing the visitor to do anything else built into the site, without contacting Placester to
upgrade. However we have some services available to use Google Forms to accomplish much
the same thing. Send us an email at Support@ScottLeRoyMarketing.com for more information

KW Email
Your KW email is powered by Googles GSuite for Business, and behaves nearly exactly the same as any
other Google account. This email is not accessed through mykw.kw.com, but rather directly through Gmail.com

another address, etc. exactly as you would with another Google account.

Create an Email Alias


An email alias is a secondary address that messages sent to will automatically show in the inbox for your main
KW email. This does NOT create a new email address that can be logged in to separately, NOR does it

KW email, not from the alias.

1. Log in to mykw.kw.com
2. In the top, black menu, hover over Technology

KW Email F.A.Q.
Can I use my KW Email on my phone?
Yes! Your KW email will work on most iOS and Android devices. Add your KW email the same
way you would add any other Google account, through your devices settings, or use the Gmail
app to automatically bring over your saved signature
Why do we have two email addresses?
Your @kw.com email address is your primary email and should be used for all of your
accounts/marketing/communication. The @kwrealty.com address is simply the address that
your marketing campaigns come from. If your settings are correct, any response to your
marketing campaign emails will automatically be forwarded to your KW email, or whatever other
email you use for your business
See Update Information That Auto-Populates on Marketing Materials for more
information
Are we obligated to use our KW email?
Not at all. You are welcome to use this email address if you would like to as it is a part of the
Keller Williams technology fees. Since it is linked up to the Gmail platform, it will run the exact
same as if you were to utilize a @gmail.com account.
Why do some Google services not work using my KW email?
Almost all Google services can be used through your KW email.The full list can be found here:
http://answers.kw.com/customer/en/portal/articles/2822714-google-apps-connected-to-the-kw-g-
suite?b_id=1286
Note that some of the Google apps not accessible through your KW email have to do with
money: Adwords, Adsense, Wallet, Play Store, etc. This is because if you leave KW, Google
has no way of collecting/paying any outstanding balance.
Do I receive any extra features with this account?

27 Scott Le Roy Marketing REV 2017-09


www.ScottLeRoyMarketing.com
myKW Cheat Sheet
Yes. You receive most of the Google Apps that you would normally receive with a Gmail
account (Drive, Docs, Calendar, Voice, etc), along with 30 GB of online storage instead of the
normal 15 GB.
Will I keep the same KW Email address if I transfer to another KW office? What if that office is in
another state?
Your KW Email address goes with you no matter where you move within the company. Moving
offices, changing positions, joining or leaving a team, etc.

changes made to the KW App are done through mykw.kw.com, not through logging into your app directly on

Most likely, it just hasnt syndicated through yet, which can take up to 72 hours after it is entered
into the MLS
Another reason may be that the IDX Connection to your APP hasnt yet been set up. See W hat
Is IDX? under KW Website Powered By Placester
Lastly, contact KW International support at (512) 306-7191
Can I change my KW APP code/URL to something more user-friendly?
This used to be a feature for Wolfnet Pro users, but it has been discontinued
My app is branded to another KW Agent. How do I re-brand the app with my information?
From the APP home page, open the menu
Tap My Account
At the bottom, tap Agent Search
Follow the steps in Brand Your KW APP
I transferred KW Offices, and my app still displays the old offices city at the bottom. How do I update
this?
When transferring KW Offices, an agent gets a new app in the new office. To re-brand the app
with the correct office information, follow the same steps shown above for re-branding the app
from another agent.

myContacts
myContacts, powered by eEdge, is the KW Agents database. This is where agents will enter everyone they
know or interact with, to be able to follow up with them, record notes, and send them listing alerts or campaign
emails. A few notes:
A maximum of 15,000 contacts are allowed in the basic eEdge database
A maximum of 5,000 messages per month are allowed to be sent in the basic eEdge database
Importing contacts who have not opted in to receive emails from you is strictly prohibited and could
result in deactivation of your account
I.e. from Facebook, which is impossible as of August 2017. Facebook has prevented any kind of
export of your friends list in order protect users from receiving emails that they never signed up
for, even if they have already connected with you.

eEdge Website F.A.Q.


Am I Obligated To Use The eEdge Website?
No. Both the eEdge and Placester website are included in your technology fees each month to
Keller Williams. You are not obligated to utilize these websites, but have the option of using
either or both if you choose to.
What is the Difference between the Two Websites?
eEdge Website This is the Market Leader website. You cannot customize this website as
much, but it is relatively easy to navigate for clients and leads to utilize. Will be retired near the
end of 2018
Placester Website New website provided by Keller Williams and Placester. Allows for greater
SEO and mobile responsiveness. We highly suggest using this website as this is the website of
the future for KW Agents.
Can I Forward my eEdge Website Domain to Another Website?
No. The eEdge website domain is solely tied to the eEdge website.
Can I Have a Custom Domain Name Instead of _________.kwrealty.com?
The Pro account with eEdge will allow you to have a custom domain and a custom eEdge email
address tied to that domain. Without the pro account, you can only forward a custom domain

myKW Cheat Sheet
purchased at a domain registrar to your eEdge website, which leaves the .kwrealty.com
address in the address bar.
Is There a Support Number For eEdge?
Yes. Market Leader is the company that has helped to create the eEdge back office. Their
support phone number is 1-877-450-0088 or you may email them at
