On Zillow we like to bring attention to those who contribute the most to the Zillow community by awarding Zillow All-Star and Zillow Local Expert badges.
These badges appear on profile pages and can also be posted on other marketing efforts, such as a personal blog. People with these badges are also given better placement in the Zillow Professional Directory, with the idea that those who are the most helpful should get the best exposure opportunities on Zillow. This is in addition to the obvious benefit that comes with contributing more, which is getting to connect with more potential clients.
To help you learn more about become a Zillow All-Star and Local Expert, we’ve created two informational videos, starring Zillow All-Star Kristin Acker.
