Keep Reading...Neighbors Worry About Vacant Home Conditions
Vacant home conditions have always been a concern in the Tallahassee real estate market, when neighbors wonder what is being done to maintain a property until it is sold. But with the glut of homes for sale in our current market, this condition is something that we might actually see get out of hand. Recently, [...]
Keep Reading...Bulls And Bears In Real Estate
Some of the loudest voices in the investment markets are calling for the real beginning to the housing recovery to start next year. Others are saying the problems will be around for many years to come. I say the answer is right in front of us and can be measured at any time, thus the [...]
Keep Reading...The Return Of The Real Estate Company
In much of my writing, I often mention that home sellers should interview real estate companies, not just real estate agents. This comment goes relatively unchallenged and unnoticed for the most part, but every once in a while I get feedback. Most often times, the feedback comes from a real estate agent, and location does [...]
Keep Reading...Home Sellers Have A Role To Play
When a home seller hires a real estate company for the job of selling a home, they often feel like their work is done and all they have to do is sit back and let the REALTOR® take over. And as much as we would like to be able to provide this level of service, [...]
Keep Reading...Spinning The Existing-Home Sales Report
I just love the 25th of the month. I wake up every 25th of the month, grab a cup of coffee, then look to see what the National Association Of REALTORS® has to report on existing-home sales across the US housing markets. Lately, meaning over the past few years, it has been an interesting game [...]
Keep Reading...Real Estate Video Creates Quite A Chatter
In case you didn’t see the new real estate video that we produced yesterday, I’ve decided to re-post it for all to see. We have received phone calls, emails, blog comments, and text messages that say we definitely touched a nerve (on the funny bone?). So, if you have not yet seen this funny video, [...]
Keep Reading...62% Of Homeowners Say “I don’t Care”
I think it is safe to say that actions speak louder than words, and when we look at how most home sellers hire a real estate agent, the words they have been screaming with their actions for many, many years sounds like “I don’t care!“ I know that home sellers really do care, but it [...]
Keep Reading...Warren Buffett’s Opinion On Real Estate
In yesterday’s blog I discussed the 3 potential solutions to our real estate problem, but I failed to credit the solution as Warren Buffett’s opinion on real estate. I had covered these back in March and credited Mr. Buffett, but I figure I should mention again that the “Oracle of Omaha” first mentioned the only [...]

I have many different Google Alerts set up to monitor the internet activity which centers on the Tallahassee real estate market. With my focus on real estate SEO (search engine optimization), I know that I have to stay vigilant on the changes that are occurring every day. The alerts allow me to keep up to date with any new sites or new tools that come along.
So this morning I was checking my email and the several alerts that Google had sent my way. One alert is set to show me any new websites who have a competing interest in the Tallahassee real estate market, and I always chuckle when I see a new “boiler plate” site appear. It is so obvious to me that most real estate agents have no understanding of real estate seo when they purchase one of these “packages,” as their new site will never draw them any solid traffic.
Real Estate SEO Draws Homebuyers And Sellers
The first thing a real estate marketer should understand is that drawing traffic to one’s listings is the key to getting them sold. Since we know that 94% or more of homebuyers are using the internet, and 85% of them use Google or Bing/Yahoo, then we know that it is imperative to have a search engine optimization plan that helps us rank higher than our competition.
Real estate SEO draws consumers because the search engines see the site as relevant to “Tallahassee real estate.” By using a very strong real estate seo platform for my website, I am able to capture the attention of Google, Yahoo, Bing and other key sites on the web. So when people use these sites to search for relevant results, my web site more than likely ends up near the top of their results.
Most real estate package solutions are really just duplications of thousands of other sites across the internet. They look unique (but similar) to humans due to the different art work, but Google and the other search engines see right through that. They see the same words used in search engine submissions for Tallahassee, Tampa, San Antonio, Toledo, Atlanta, Los Angeles, etc., and give a very low relevance score to that site. Because of this, these boiler plate sites have no chance of every drawing major traffic from the search engines.
How Real Estate SEO Works To Sell Your Home
If you have a home for sale in Tallahassee, then it needs to be listed with the best real estate marketing company in Tallahassee. We know that 6 in 10 home sellers failed to sell their home last year, so choosing the right real estate company is critical. Every company will put each listing on the large national and international sites, but google is looking for relevant, local sites and that is where it will send people searching for Tallahassee real estate. When they arrive, will your home be featured? Included? or Absent?
If your home is not in the Tallahassee housing market, then drop us a line and tell us you need help “finding the best real estate seo site” in your market area. We know how to look at the actual source code of the site and remove all of those copy-cat sites that won’t do you any good. Remember, without regular, unique, relevant search engine submissions, all of those boiler plate sites do is cost money and offer empty promises.
