Generate Traffic to Your IDX and Lead Generating Forms

I was thinking today….

Many Realtors spend hundreds of dollars each month on pay-per-click advertising such as Google Adwords and even Homegain’s BuyerLink product to generate traffic to their website. I have a bunch of existing well-ranked Realtor websites currently without Realtors - why not use those websites to direct traffic to the IDX Search and lead generating pages of your existing websites that perhaps are languishing in the search engine results?

I have some existing clients that have been doing this successfully for quite a while already - one has been doing it for over 4 years. The idea of redirecting traffic to the IDX search and lead pages of the website a Realtor has elsewhere - that is not one of ours - is not something that I ever offered before but was willing to do if asked.

The Realtor website landscape has changed a lot in the last couple of years however and I realize that often agents are spending many thousands of dollars on customized IDX searches and websites - which is not something that we offer. Agents can always use a little help in directing traffic to those high priced websites and IDX search services - and perhaps that is where our system can be of help.

The traffic that comes to our websites is high quality traffic that arrives by searching the big 3 search enginesĀ  for “city real estate” and other popular real estate keywords. It is not traffic that comes from deceptive advertising and popups etc. It is the same traffic you strive for when you work to have your current website ranking well in search engines. When visitors to sites we provide click on links to the search forms and listing searches on our sites - they can be directed to the IDX search and forms on your current site. The websites we provide would be personalized with your information - just as if you were not redirecting the traffic - so visitors would know right from the start that you are the Realtor providing the information to them. It would not be like Homegain’s BuyerLink service where visitors are redirected to a totally different Realtor (surprise!).

If this is an idea that holds some interest for you, check out our website for more information on our Realtor Websites.

Blog Communities A Big Waste Of Time Now?

The most valuable thing you have is your time and how that time is spent will determine your wealth, health, and happiness.

Ever since the inception of the web, there have been many opportunities to participate in activities that are a waste of time. I first wrote about this long before there was such a thing as blogs - but the issues were the same. Back in September 1999 I wrote an article titled “Get off the computer and back to work!” in my newsletter that was subscribed to by thousands of Realtors at the time - the forerunner of this blog.

Spending your time maintaining a real estate blog at one of the many blog communities may just be a colossal waste of time. Yes, I know that statement is politically incorrect but I did not say blogging was necessarily a waste of time - just the reasons most agents give for frequently writing blog posts at blogging communities may no longer be valid.

No Fee, No Referral Real Estate Leads

Being in the business of providing Realtor websites, I sometimes have websites up and ranking in search engines - waiting for a Realtor to take over the spot. When that happens I often get members of the public filling in the request forms (even though the site is identified as being in need of a Realtor).

Instead of letting these leads “fall on the floor” as I have been doing up until now, I have decided to make them available to local agents at no cost, no referral and no strings attached! I will be posting fresh (from within the last 24 hours) leads - usually daily - here on this blog. The leads include the prospects needs and their email address and phone number to make it easy to contact them.

If you are a Realtor who works in one of the areas posted and are interested in working one of the leads - simply email me letting me know of your interest and which market area and I will forward the lead to you.

Most of the buyer leads will be from Canada as the buyer traffic from US websites is being directed to local Realtors already. There will still be some US seller leads though so keep checking back to see if there is one in your area.

**I will be limiting the number of leads sent to any one agent to six - but you can always have all of the leads by simply taking our website package for the available area. We only produce one website package in each market area - so areas are exclusive.

To get started, below are todays leads…

Seller Leads - Fort Worth TX

Buyer Leads - Regina SK, Windsor ON, North Bay ON, Thunder Bay ON, Orillia ON, St. Catharines ON, Pembroke ON, Medicine Hat AB
