Things To Keep In Mind When Having Your New Estate Agent Website Design
When it comes to estate agent website design there are a number of hints and tips you should consider when creating a new website for a real estate agent, broker or organization in the real estate industry? Here are some tips that you need to remember.
- Treat the Website Like an Investment
It is an investment, not a cost, to get a website built professionally. The website can help you generate new leads over time and better support your current customers. The do-it-yourself software provided by others and those one-size-fits-all real estate site solutions are just not comparable solutions. Just remember the importance of getting a website and what it can do for your business. - Understand how the industry's listings function
Know that you need to have an MLS subscription via an IDX provider if you are thinking of displaying all of the MLS listings on your blog. Usually, we collaborate with a licensed supplier that enables us to design and build your platform by using another company's listing service. There is almost always a monthly charge associated with displaying listings on your platform (the general MLS) and some geographical areas are also connected to the MLS. Basically, you would need to pay for more than one market if you were in New York and decided to show both New York and Boston listings. We can help you do that too if you are thinking of only putting listings up on your own, such as your own listings or manually handling them. - Being Resourceful
Beyond a basic bio page and a contact form, you want to try to deliver something. Sure, there are always listings on real estate websites, but what about those resourceful connections? It can be a nice way to keep visitors on your site to have links to school details, local community services, and other things people buying a home often care about. It also provides other reasons for people to come back to you, making your site more of a forum for the world. - Keep the Website Updated
Any kind of content management framework is involved with most real estate web design strategies that we put together. This will allow you to update the text and images on the website easily. Just be sure to keep the site up to date if you use it. You do not want to display old listings, for instance, which have long been off the market. In today's day and age, you also do not want to show old blog posts that are obsolete. Simply keep it up to date. We can also help you do that. - Understand the Fundamentals of SEO
The material on your website should contain the main sentences that you think people are going to look for. If you are a real estate agent, for instance, in Spokane, Washington. Then it could make sense to have content like, "Our Spokane real estate team" and so on. Although still reading well, the more frequently the words are used, the better. Just make sure you understand how to use content on your web correctly so that you show up in the search results better. Each little bit helps.
