Real Estate Web Design with an emphasis on SEO
Posted by pete quinlan on Nov 6, 2007
A few weeks back geekestateblog released a blog post about various real estate web design solutions on the market. I worked in the space a few years back so many of the 25 or so companies were quite familiar. When I was selling real estate websites I tried to explain the importance of search marketing, but most real estate web solutions did not fit the bill. Mot real estate solutions that are priced reasonably are templates and include duplicate or uneditable content. They are typically on the same class c address block as many other similar sites. However, last week I came across a solution that is built on the idea of search marketing. It is built on top of Wordpress so it’s open source and complete with modules designed to allow you to control content, title tags, meta description tags and more. The real estate solution was created by Greg Boser an SEO veteran. The Wordpress sites are called propertytown and are very customizable. It may be the best solution for real estate agents that are interested in using search engines to market their sites. Even if you are not a savvy search marketer, the solution offers private SEO forums that will answer your search marketing questions, testimonials and consulting. I have seen a few sites and am impressed by the search capability as well as the custom look and feel. If you are a real estate agent and want a simple clean site that works well with the search engines, this is a great solution!
