Don't believe this myth

It is believed by many that company channels are the most important social tools available to an agent. This is simply not the case.

 

Social media marketing success is about the individuals, not the corporate logos. Consider this: if you add up the number of social connections of your employees, they almost always exceed the connections for your official brokerage accounts.  Decentralizing social media, and making it about the individual real estate professional, is the key to success.

 

 

Embrace long-tail keywords

Looking to improve your blog's SEO? One of the most practical ways to do this is through the use of long-tail keywords.

 

Long-tail keywords are created from 2 or more words. Instead of using a single keyword such as "homes," use a long-tail keyword such as "Gated community homes in Dallas."

 

These keywords typically have a lower search volume on Google or Bing. However, these long-tail keywords will have a greater ranking potential and attract the attention of the specific target audience you desire.
