WHERE IS THE WONDERFUL WEBSITE?Ever wonder what all the Internet hype is all about? The promises were and still are free flowing. Just buy this Wonderful Website and customers will be lined up outside your door, certified checks in hand, anxious to buy a home from you. Well, for most of you, that didn?t happen! But it is also true that for a very privileged few, it did happen. All over the country the top agents in every office have top search engine placement. How did they figure it out? If you would like some expert guidance on figuring it out, visit . LET GOOGLE BE YOUR GUIDEGoogle and all major search engines tell us exactly what we must do to get a Website placed at the top of the page. Here are the rules written in plain English: 1. It starts with Web Design. Your Website must have plenty of good, original content that talks about the real estate market in your area. 2. The Web design should not be based on framed pages and should avoid Flash graphics and multi-media. 3. You will need plenty of backlinks, which means other Websites must link to you. 4. Before starting your Web design or anything else, you need to know the search terms or keyword phrases that will actually produce good results for you. ELIMINATE STEPS AT YOUR PERIL OR YOUR EXPENSEAs you can see, it isn?t all that complicated but it also isn?t as easy as setting up a template Website or simply submitting your Website to the search engines. If you leave out step one, the search engines will not take you seriously. If do all the above but leave out step two, the search engines may never see the content on your Website. Leave out step three and you will make it on the search engines, but not on page one or anywhere where people will find you. Leave out step four and you may be on page one for a search term that no one is looking for. Of course you can always pay for top placement but even that requires that you follow step four and then plan for a healthy monthly placement expense. YOU CAN?T CHANGE HUMAN NATUREIn today?s world over 85% of all real estate leads come from the Internet. It?s a fact! The longer you wait before getting in the game, the harder it is going to be for you to get your Website ranked on page one. Time matters. Take two Websites that have done everything just right and deserve top of the page placement. The search engines will favor the one that has been around the longest. This simply means that the newcomer will need more backlinks in order to compete with the established Website. So ACT NOW and boost your bottom line now and for years to come.
