Dear Real Estate Professional,
My name is Parham Baker, and I am a long time computer professional who also has long involvement in Real Estate marketing. 25 years ago, I was directing and producing a local cable television show on real estate offered for sale, using what was then "state of the art" computer techniques for creating the program.
Today, I'm still at it. I have evolved from television, the then prevelant media for marketing real estate, to today's most effecient media, the internet. According to the National Association of Realtors, 87% of those looking for a new home used the internet as thier information source... and that was in 2008. I'm sure you know this, but do your listed properties have a easy to find presence there? Are you getting the leads for YOUR listed properties?
In his breakthrough book "SHIFT," Gary Keller of one of the nations leading real estate firms, Keller Williams Realty, cites how our way of finding the right home has shifted from the traditional methods of searching, to the internet. In new work he and others have done, they are showing a futher shift to both non-traditional centralized website, like realtor.com, to more local sites.. more property specific sites, and to..
Social Media!!!
I conduct seminars on webdesign for real estate agents, courses on search engine optimization, this new all important phenomenon Social Media, and more. I do these seminars because I do this every day... hands on. We, all of us at our firm, know it intimately. Agency websites, agent website, property websites, IDX feeds, lead generation, branding, office systems and marketing tools, We have done them all. I have over 30 years in IT and over 25 years in real estate marketing via technology we have learned what works, and what doesn't. As a company, we have centuries of experience in both!
We founded our company, realestate-webpages.com, NOT to be one of those companies that promises you "We'll put you in the top of the search engines in just one day!! FOR ONLY $99 Dollars!!!" Those claims, while seem to work for the moment, are not the correct solutions. The correct solution is one that keep your listing high in the search engines over the life of the listing. We are a team of IT professionals who KNOW through our long years of trial and error, and more importantly, proven success.. WHAT WORKS on the internet.
And too, to make sure we are on top of all of the developments and changes in the industry, we have licensed agents, brokers, and office managers... some in our employ and some as daily involved consultants, on our team.
At realestate-webpages.com, we don't promise that magically you will be on top of google, yahoo, bing, ask, etc etc... but we do have a track record of making our clients CONSISTANTLY remain high in the search engines, and make you get the client, using our 7 Internet Keys.
These Keys are:
1) Attention getting property website that CAPTURES LEADS!!!
2) Proper construction of that website for maximum "exposure" to the major search engines.
3) Good Analytics. Seeing where your website hits are coming from, and what keywords they are using to get to your site
4) A comprehensive approach to exposure. Using social media, traditional SEO, and unique features to capture leads.
5) Good presentation. Images sell. You MUST have excellent and sufficient images and descriptions of the property.
6) Links Links Links. A site MUST have many links pointed to it to score high in the searches.
7) Quick response from leads. Tools to get to the potential buyer before they call someone else.
