The Global Wrapper takes the design of any website and places it behind (around) every IDX search, results, and details page. We believe that this is a more effective way to integrate IDX search tools into a website because iFramed IDX poses a couple of limitations:

1. Widgets post quick searches and other links directly to the IDX server. If any of these pages do not included the design of the original website, they will appear as unbranded, plain pages with little or no navigation back to your primary website.
2. Each page remains a stand-alone page. While search engines are able to crawl the URL placed inside an iFrame tag, there is often very little in the way of dynamic title or meta description tags available on the iFramed page. Search engines use title and description tags to store and display that same title and description in the search results provided to their end-users.

See below for a video tutorial about how to integrate your website design using the Global Wrapper.
