The Truth about SEO
Search Engine Optimization - SEO - Realtor SEO - Search Engine Marketing - Search Positioning - Web Marketing
Despite the false promises you may have been told, optimizing a real estate website for search is not easy. (Sorry to blow your cover guys.) You can't gloss over the facts. A website that's not built correctly will NEVER show up on the top page of Google. Many vendors claim they offer Search Engine Optimization and "Search Submission." Beware of these promises on websites costing under $499. They may make a quick sale, but you'll be wasting your money. Request Free SEO Report
SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION
What to Know About SEO |
How to Get to the Top of Google |
|
| Did you know there are over 100 factors to consider for search engine optimization when building your website? That's one of the reasons why The Marketing Shop.com builds our clients' websites from scratch. |
There are two (2) ways to get to the top of Google Search Results: Natural Search Engine Optimization (SEO) or Pay-Per-Click. We can help you in both ways. SEO requires that your website be built to a tee, and pay-per-click requires you to pay every time someone clicks onto your site. Both ways have pros and cons.

Optimizing Your Website |
Why Templates Hurt Rankings |
|
| A search engine optimized website is no accident. An SEO site is written, designed and developed to communicate with the search engine's "crawlers." The Search Engines can't read just anything. Only someone skilled in SEO for real estate websites can effectively turn your website into a lead generating machine. A truly search engine optimized website must be built by a web developer skilled in the latest SEO, as well as the changing algorythm requirements of Google. | There are roughly 100 factors per page for consideration. So, if you're buying a template website that 100s of other agents nationwide already have, it's not going to be fully optimized. A template site is pre-built and often built with frames. Frames are completely invisible to search engines, as is the code used to create template sites. Search engines simply cannot read everything on the web. |
Local Search Engine Optimization
When you're targeting a specific geographic location, you must optimize from the ground floor up. This means that the site needs to be custom built around your service areas and around the types of homes you sell. For example, if you're selling condos in Miami, Florida, and you want to show up on top for "Miami Florida Condos," then you will need a page called "miami-florida-condos.html." In fact, if you want to show up on top for Miami Florida Condos (a very lucrative position), you will need to add that keyword phrase numerous times on your website and deep within the website's code.

It's not a "Get Rich Quick Scheme"
Building a lead generating web site that ranks highly in the search engines and converts web traffic into qualified leads is not a "get rich quick scheme." The most important thing to remember through this process is that building a web site that gets results is just like building any other type of business. It takes commitment, persistence, patience, time, money and realistic expectations.
