Today a small focus on the world of on-line notary. In fact we recently had the opportunity to create a site for a notary in Condom in the Gers and the opportunity to have discovered this area and its specificities.

Three points have drawn our attention

• The National Notary France site
• The importance of real estate and publishing assets
• The constraints of publishing sites Notaries

New website National - Notary France

Needed an overhaul, the previous version was static and narrow ...

A clear design and air reminiscent of the real estate portal of notaries , the homepage is more dynamic and menus a bit fuzzy ... The contents are rich and adapted to different types of visitors ... little black dot, navigation is laborious and lack of clarity from the home page.

A website made ​​with Open Source CMS Jahia.

Real Estate

One of the major advantages for studies that make the real estate negotiations is the online publication of property.

There are four specific actors in this sector:

• The real estate portal notaries , published by the Higher Council of Notaries, centralization of property portal ... clear and well thought out!
• Immonot less intuitive portal with over 70,000 ads.
• Announcement estate lawyers , published by the network CANIF, focusing directly on the property search design ... a little light ...
• The chambers of notaries sites that publish assets in the studies of the department.

Notaries also have the opportunity to publish their property on real estate sites classics like Seloger, FNAIM etc ...

The best strategy given the relatively low costs of publication seems to be widely available via the site-specific and general real estate.

The constraints of publishing sites Notaries

More and more studies have a website, the Internet becomes an indispensable communication tool for solicitors. This is a public officer charged with a public service mission, it is subject to strict ethical rules.

Three goals

• Preserve the impartiality and independence of the notary
• The site aims to improve online documentation to enable potential customers to hold the information necessary and essential to the effective independence of the choice of notary.
• Maintain cohesion in the profession

These objectives are among others responsible for the prohibition of solicitation and advertising, as reminder all commercial activities are prohibited for notaries.

Specifically a small list of the main constraints

• Declaration of the creation of the site to his room
• Restrictions on the domain name
• No Soliciting and advertising
• No paid search
• Restrictions on outbound links
• Account creation (extranet) is possible only for clients of the study
