How To Market Your Real Estate Agency Using Articles And Social Media,You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login
There is a Worldwide recession on in real estate just in case you haven't noticed. There are many problems for Real estate Agents everywhere so you need to rise to the challenge if you have a Real estate agency in order to buck the trend. So how do you market your website if you are in real estate? How do you get your visitors to stay sticky with your site? How do you use social media and SEO?
If your answer to any of these questions is nothing, or you don't get visitors to stay, or what is that then,You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login, you may well have a problem. The new media outlets allow you to get a lot of free PR, tons of exposure and increase your visibility. If your website is static and staid with the same look it has had for years then you may be missing out on the vast majority of people searching. Simply not having an RSS feed can hamper your progress.
Mistakes can be made of course. There are many real estate agents that have put up really good looking websites relying almost totally on Flash. This is not good for being found on Google as Google spiders, they look at your site periodically, cannot find any content to index. Other search engines like Yahoo do the same thing.
One of the best ways to increase your visibility to the Google God is to have lots of backlinks, good quality ones if possible,You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login, going back to your site. Recently I have put my faith in the writing of articles with backlinks in. The articles get published on others' sites and may bring traffic to your site but definitely bring spiders looking at the content. My favourite service has given me over 1000 good quality backlinks from six base articles in just a month.
After the article has been written you should place a version of it on your own site too. It is easier to submit automatically to social network sites giving the article exposure and avoiding the laborious manual submission process. There are many services for doing this and most are free in the basic version. Social Marker and Only Wire are examples of sites that can do this for you and save lots of time.
The other thing is you should contribute by providing good content on the social media sites such as Twitter, Friendfeed, Facebook,You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login, Digg and my personal favourite Stumble Upon. Do a bit every day on these sites and bit by bit over time you can drop your links in. Services such as You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login will allow you to update more easily. I have recently started using Posterous too and have to say that is is rather good.
Finally you buy with your eyes so you should make good use of video too. Avoid grainy video if at all possible because the customer will decide on a place straight away in many cases and first impressions count. Make sure to put a bit of yourself into the videos and your audience will give you business.
Being in Real Estate is not the best place in the World to be for many at the moment but good self promotion through new media and marketing can still make you very successful. Have a look at the site developed in the last quarter (With some older content) to see how certain techniques have been used
