Compass Passes Realtor.com and Trulia in Some Markets with Parcel Record Listings

WAV Group believes that search engine optimization around long-tail address search is a best practice. It is not necessarily the thing that is going to drive massive lead generation and sales, but it is the right thing to do. 

3 SEO Real Estate Website Strategies

Three SEO strategies to enhance real estate websites. If you're a real estate agent, broker, or technology company, you know that having a website is essential for your business.

Looking for an effective and affordable way to increase your site traffic by as much as 20%?

I just saw a demo of something that is affordable but has been proven to drive up site traffic by as much as 20%. And it does not require any site re-design or major overhaul!

SEO Or Search Marketing For Brokers

We just escorted a client though a double audit of their search engine optimization on their broker website.  We reviewed Domain Authority and ranked it against their competition and saw a range of authority from 44 to 48 for leading broker websites. We reviewed Moz Report, CheckPageRank.net, and others.

Again, four or five years ago, if you searched for a property by address, and that property was for sale, [...]

SEM and VTs

SEM and VTs, sounds a little more than conspicuous. It's code for using some Internet strategies to do a little more with online marketing. There is a gaping area of unexploited territory available to cleaver brokers who understand how to leverage unbranded virtual tours in real estate. As WAV Group has discussed before, the unbranded virtual tour allows a broker to publish a Virtual Tour to other broker and agent websites. If done correctly, that virtual tour provides a link back to the broker’s website. It is not a link that the consumer sees or can even touch, but search [...]
