TOPIC: Built in Glossary of Terms?

Personally, I would rather be able to hyper-link a specific word to my website glossary.  I asked Dom about hyper-linking specific words  before and it was not an option at the time.  If you actually type in a link, the pdf generator will make it an active link.  What I want is to be able to assign a url to a specific word, that will in turn take them to my website glossary or where ever I feel is pertinent.  Of course this means they need to be online when reading the report.

I would rather have the link and activity on my website than an extra 2-3-15 pages in my report.  While the initial set-up would take time, I think it would be worth it.  Just my opinion.

I like the hyperlink idea and it makes sense that people would most likely be online when they view the report. I don't know how much marketing it gets you though since few potential clients would have access to a confidential report. Stephen, when you imagine in your minds eye the increased traffic to your website, what is the overall benefit you're seeing(forgive me, this may be a stupid question)?

I also wondered if a pdf can be set up to link a word to the glossary within the pdf. So when you click on a word it sends you to that page of the included glossary.

Okay, here's a thought. Could the PDF report have glossary definitions appear when you hover over a word or is the programming for that way too difficult?

Cam,  you are correct that it is a very limited number of hits but getting people (like agents) used to visiting your site for information can only helpful.  It also drives your client to your website.  Every little unique visitor helps in your overall ranking.

There are websites I have seen where there is a list of terms at the top of the page and when you click on the word, it takes you down the page to that particular word / definition.  I don't know how to do that but would be interested in incorporating something like that as well.  

That will teach me to use "scorpion" as an example! Just finished an inspection and found THREE scorpions, the biggest about 4" long.  I HATE those things.

Interesting ideas. I agree Cameron that changing the color or adding an asterisk is not a great plan. Maybe just bold the word would suffice. I REALLY like the hover idea so a pop up box appears with that particular words definition.  Great thought.

And Stephen I like the url idea as well.  The more visitors the merrier!

Good ideas!
