What is Your Real Estate Website Saying to Your Clients?

Wednesday, July 17th, 2013

There is no doubt that your real estate website is an important marketing tool.  But is it saying what you think it’s saying to your clients?  Does it really represent your business?  If you did not carefully craft your real estate website with your public image in mind, you may be able to make some changes to more accurately represent your unique brand.

Most importantly, your real estate website should be well designed.  A cheap looking website built from a template discredits your business and your brand.  Clients will become frustrated with a website that is difficult to navigate and may look elsewhere.  If your website gives off a bad first impression, it’s going to be hard to get new clients.  Contacting a web designer to build your page can still be affordable and give you superior results.  If you want clients to invest in you, you have to invest in yourself first.

A website bounce rate is an important factor in determining how successful your website is in its Google ranking. The more successful your site is in attracting and retaining visitors, the higher your Google ranking, the more web search traffic is directed to your domain.
