Real Estate Website Design
Effective Real Estate Website Design begins with the picture in your head. Sounds simple, right! Well, it is!
You probably already have a real estate website design in mind, but may be intimidated about trying to create and build a website from scratch. And the thought may be especially unnerving if you have trouble with simple things like
- sending email attachments
- opening attachments and downloading them to your hard drive
- reading PDF files
- opening WinZip files
- and the like
Still, if you have a vision for a real estate website design building your own website may be easier than you think. While you don't need to be a techie to build it, you will need some basic understanding about building websites!
And, I've got just the resource for you…and you can download a FREE copy of it right here!
Okay, I hear you! Why am I offering a premier resource that'll teach you how to design and build an effective real estate website of your own for no cost or obligation?
Well, for two reasons! One, because it was given to me and I can't sell something I don't own, and two I want you to be able to create the best real estate website that you can, like I've done! Giving you a copy is my version of "paying it forward".
One of the most popular ways of building a website is with programs that are commonly referred to as WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editors. WYSIWYG makes building a website as easy as opening up and typing a Microsoft Word Document. If you can type (hunting and pecking counts, too) you can build your own site.
Of course you'll have moments where you'll doubt your ability to build a good site, but if I can do it, you can do it, too! Take this site, Real Estate Marketing Talk, for example. I built it from the ground up and maintain it 100% by myself.
The design is pretty basic, but it's still appealing in a simple kind of way. The website pages are optimized for search engines and human visitors; I have a decent Google page ranking, and am rated in the Top 3% of all websites on the Internet!
That's right, the Top 3%!
There are more than 55 million websites on the Internet and my little old, self designed website ranks in the Top 3% of all of them! Some people pay thousands of dollars for something that doesn't do nearly as well as mine, and I accomplished it for a very reasonable cost!
You can design and build your own website, too! And by doing it yourself you will have control over every aspect of it; from look and feel to graphics and web site content. Plus, you'll be in a situation where there should never be a problem you can't fix.
Effective real estate website design is within your powers. At every step along the building process you'll know what you've done, and what you have left to do. And if something is wrong, you'll be able to fix it, almost intuitively.
Effective Real Estate Website Design may never be easier, or cheaper. In years past website design and hosting fees were pretty expensive. Nowadays, it's so easy and affordable that it doesn't make sense not to have one!
As you build your site, or tweak it if you already have one, check out your competitors. If you analyze their sites properly you can learn all sorts of useful things to increase the popularity and effectiveness of yours.
If they are doing something right, do it better! What's their ranking? What keywords are they using? How is it formatted! What is their purpose? Are they promoting listings, collecting email addresses; or simply providing marketing information to buyers, sellers and renters?
You can learn a lot by looking at competitors' websites and analyzing them. Here are some other things to look for.
- The look and feel of their website! Is it clean, attractive and appealing?
- Look at their strengths and weaknesses.
- See if you can figure out their strategy.
- Note how they promote their listings and services, as well as anything that's different from your own offerings. Look for gaps that you could fill, and or provide better.
- Look for Strengths, Vulnerabilities, and Gaps.
Now, summarize the information you've found into a few sentences for each competitor, highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of each one. Note strategies that are going to be necessary to make your real estate website design better. With this research, you can create, design and build a more effective real estate website.
Finally, we've come full circle. A started out saying; Real Estate Website Design begins with a picture in your mind, and with today's technology if you can conceive it you can achieve it!
