I know I have been writing about other rental web sites on my http://rentvine.wordpress.com/blog, but I thought I would write about AllStudentRentals.com here.
- It appears like the site started about 8 months ago and is run by two guys out of CA.
- It appears the site makes their money from a pay-per lead pricing model.
- Right now it appears their coverage is pretty limited to CA.
- They use a lot of Flash. Flash is near to my heart since I founded FlashAppointements.com many years ago and then handed it over to the partner I had. However you need to careful when using it too much.
- Judging by their traffic on Compete.com they are off to a little bit of a dumpy ride which is to be expected with a new site. I am going to have that myself with my new PickRent.com site that I am still working on.
- I have only looked over the site for about 10 minutes, but I can tell you the Flash they have is cool but they really need to be careful with it because of the page load times. They also need to work on their title tags.

Thanks for the review. We are working hard on expanding our coverage and moving into new college towns.
No problem, good luck with your site.
Wow!
The site ‘looks’ good, but page load times are awful.
And the sub-domains are going into distinction IMO.
I will agree with you on the subdomains, I got rid of mine over a year ago.
