3 Quick and Easy Ways to Generate Real Estate Leads Online
Even though there are many ways you can bring traffic to your website it will do you no good if your
website isn't built to collect leads. The strategies that I will discuss below assume that you have this
type of website. Real estate Palo alto
Manually submit your site to Yahoo and MSN.
By itself this may not generate much traffic to your real estate website, but getting indexed in the
search engines is a good first step. You can do this at Yahoo and MSN manually. Just go to their
search page and click on the "Submit Your Site" link at the bottom of the page. Do not submit your site
manually to Google. You will get better results if they find you on their own. This can be
accomplished by using the article strategy below.
Using articles to generate real estate leads online
Write an article about what is going on in the real estate market in your particular geographic area with
a resource box that includes a link to your website and submit the article to one of the many article
directories. The article should normally be between 400-800 words long. Use anchor text for the link
that includes real estate related keywords and your geographic area, such as: "Real Estate Trends in San
Antonio" or "Palo Alto Real Estate News". It's not a bad idea to also include your website URL as a
separate link also.
You can get online leads a couple of different ways with this strategy. The article itself will likely get
indexed by the search engines and may show up under certain searches. Google will index the article
and also follow the links and index your site, which is the best way to get into their index. If the reader
is interested they will read the article and click on the link to get more information. Also, by listing it
in the article directory you are agreeing to allow other web publishers to put your article on their
website as content with the understanding that they are to include your resource box with the links to
your website. This gives additional exposure to your article and gives your website greater credibility
as far as the search engines are concerned because other sites are linking to you.
You could also offer to write articles for organizations in your area and give them to them for free as
long as they include your resource box at the end of the article. They could print your article offline or
publish it on their own website. This could include organizations such as civic groups, news outlets,
large and small businesses in your area, etc. This will give you the added benefit of being seen as the
local real estate expert in your area. Real estate Palo alto
Use a sign or sign rider.
Make your real estate signs do as much work as possible for you. Include an offer on your sign or on a
rider for a free report or a free list of foreclosures by going to your website. If a prospect drives by one
of your listings and is not interested in the property they may still want to get the free information at
your website.
