For
more than eight years, we've been helped hundreds of real estate
agents with their search engine optimization SEO positioning.
We use proven methods for overall site optimization, landing page
optimization, and link building. We know exactly what it takes
to compete in real estate markets.
We
also know than many USA and Canada metro areas are STILL void
of any significant SEO competiton. The time to act is now!
Full
Serivce SEO Packages
We
do not sell a "standard" one-size-fits-all SEO package.
Most agents do not need that. Or maybe the package is not enough,
in a highly competitive market.
Most
agents need specific SEO services to enhance what they already
have done, and that fit with their current market conditions.
We
can provide you with a package of services that is built FOR
YOU.
All
of our combined SEO packages are custom quoted. Please
contact Rich
Blessing at (rblessing@domaindrivers.com,)
or Phone 703-729-7446 (Eastern time) for details.
A
la Carte!
Save
$$$$. Buy only the SEO related services that YOU need and can
afford now. Choose from these three essential SEO-related services,
with details below:
- Competitive Analysis & Consultation
Service
- Link Building Service
- Optimized Landing Page Service
The successful application of
those three elements is what drives sites to the top of the
rankings. There is no "secret sauce" in this business.
We
do not sell "one-size-fits-all" SEO packages,
at bank-busting prices. We customize our service for every client,
to fit their needs and budget.
Some
of you have plenty of links, and might just need some consultation
or landing page optimization. Some of you have good optimization
in place, but no links. Some of you are in very competitive
markets, and need some real guidance and a comprehensive plan
to compete. Others are in open markets, and a little bit of
SEO work will go a long way toward good rankings.
We
help you plan accordingly.
We
do not sell "mystery SEO" packages. We
do not act like wizards behind some mystical curtain. In fact,
we wholeheartedly reject that approach toward SEO service.
Basic SEO concepts are actually very straightforward, and even
clerical in nature. You can even do it much of it yourself,
if you are so inclined. We're here to help, as you need.
Everything that we do related to SEO comes from our classic
SEO guidebook that's been read by hundreds of agents, Search
Engine Optimization Basics For Real Estate-Related Websites,
specifically written for real estate professionals, using real
estate examples.
With
us, you will know precisely what we will do, in terms of competitive
analysis, page optimization, and links. And you will know what
it will cost. We help you position your site to compete, whatever
that takes. No "we optimized your site" answers. No
surprises. No obfuscation.
Competitive Analysis & Consultation Service
This is the sensible starting
point, but again, you may not need it for your situation.
We provide you with a complete
competitive SEO analysis of your own site, as well as an analysis
of five top ranking sites in your local market, all based upon
five primary search terms for your market. You will get:
- An evaluation of your existing
site content, as it applies to best SEO practice
- An analysis of your existing
link popularity.
- An analysis of your top
local competitors, for five specific, relevant search terms.
- An advisory of remedial
actions.
- Up to two hours of in-depth
phone consultation
We review the data with you
during our deliverable phone consultation, where we explain
why your competitors rank where they do, and how you can compete
against them. We answer your SEO questions thoroughly, and in
a way that you will understand. No "wizards behind the
curtain". :)
Depending upon your market situation,
we may advise that you focus on the primary search terms, or,
in competitive situations, we might advise that you initially
focus on second tier terms, where you may get more action, faster.
Use this evaluation to figure
out where you are and how to get where you want to go, and what
it might cost to get there. Armed with this, you can make valid
decisions about your future SEO focus and budget, whether you
decide to do-it-yourself, or outsource some or all of the work
that needs to be done.
Our Competitive Analysis
& Consultation is $350.
Again, it is the sensible starting
point to a well-executed SEO program. It will get your SEO questions
answered by an experienced expert (not a junior associate!),
and it will get you headed in the right direction, for YOUR
SPECIFIC market conditions.
Link Building Service
Our
breakthrough $175
per month link package is the right service for the
right time! We'll get you 300 links from various directories
and social network sites, 25 per month, for 12 months!
All of the optimization in the
world is useless without links to your site. Yet, even today,
many SEO outfits will tell you that you are "on your own"
for getting links. That can leave you hanging with no chance
of good rankings.
Again, we are different. We
do not advise our clients to build "great content"
to magically get links. We do not "fantasize" about
where these links will come from.
Link building in real estate
has been our specialty for years. We know what works for other
top-ranking agent sites. We know what works for your competitors.
We get those links for you, too.
Our current link packages are:
- General
Web Directories -
100 general web directory links for $450. These are "foundation"
links that will get your site some basic link popularity at
an affordable rate per link.
- Blog
Directories - Get your blog listed in the various
blog directories. 50 Links, $5 per link, $250 total.
- Real Estate Directories
- Get
your site listed in the various free real estate directories
that do not require reciprocal links back. 20 Links, $8 per
link, $160 total.
- Social Network Profile
Links - 50
links, strategically placed pointing back to your site from
various social network site profiles that we build for you,
using your account info. $8 per link, $400 total.
These social network accounts are then yours to use, for additional
networking, or we configure your existing account profiles
to your best link advantage.
Get
all of the above links with our breakthrough $175
per month link package . Spread out your cost. We'll
get you 300 links from various directories and social network
sites, 25 per month, for 12 months!
Reciprocation Link Packages
We also offer reciprocation link packages. Protocol requires
that you link to their sites before asking for a link.
Real Estate Directories w/Reciprocation
- Get your site listed in the various free real estate directories
that require reciprocation. 50 Links, $8 per link, $400 total.
This package requires a one-page list of real estate directories
be placed on your own website.
- Home
& General Real Estate-related Reciprocation
- your first 100 reciprocal links with other home and real
estate-related sites is $900 for the first 100 links.
Reciprocation is best
pursued indefinitely. Additional reciprocation links, after
the initial 100, can be pursued and at just $6 per link.
Please note that an additional $150 set up charge applies
to hosting configurations that do not accommodate FTP file
upload, such as Point2Agent, AgentAdvantage, etc. As well,
there is a $50 manual update charge for those no-FTP capable
sites, at each update interval of 12 weeks.
Optimized Landing Page Service
It makes ultimate good sense
to structure your website in ways that attract specific search
engine traffic. Good, thorough "landing pages" will
do just that.
It also makes sense to present
valid, useful content to real visitors to those pages. After
all, a landing page that good search rankings from a machine,
but turns off real, human visitors is worthless.
For real estate purposes, we
have formalized the process of building landing pages that meet
both of those criteria, in a way that has been proven to work
very well. Our landing page tool for real estate is actually
quite unique and innovative in the SEO world.
Our "landing
page tool" is an online questionnaire that asks an
agent a battery of vital questions about a specific community
or geo-area that they serve. From that submitted data, it forms
a "rough draft" landing page.
That "rough draft"
content is then human-edited and configured for proper display
on your website, with proper page titles, headlines, and more.
In addition, the tool makes it possible to attract "long
tail" search terms to your landing page (like relevant
"MLS" and "Realtor" terms, and many more),
in addition to the primary terms on that page. We
can also configure your site in ways that will get these pages
indexed by the search engines.
Our landing page tool can be
used on a do-it-yourself basis, for free, if you like. If so,
you can save money, and maybe apply your savings toward your
link building or consultation.
For agents who do not want to
manage the editing and configuration work that comes from the
landing page tool output, we can get these vital pages onto
your site, the right way.
The cost of landing
page editing and configuration is just $50 per page,
if you are a client for any of our other services above.
This is also contingent upon you using the landing page tool
to provide us with the basic content.
For site owners who are not
clients of our other services, there is a $100, one-time set
up charge. That set up fee includes a one-half hour phone consultation,
in order to make sure that we are covering the right bases for
your site. The set up fee also covers page template configuration
and page upload services.
We usually advise multiple pages
for most agents, and at least one landing page per community
or geo-area, to best cover their whole market.
Payment Options
For orders over $500, we can offer extended
monthly payment options, with a reasonable down payment. Please
contact us for specific details and a custom quote.
No Gimmicks, No Wizards, No Obfuscation, No Empty "Guarantees"
We treat Search Engine Optimization
as a specific, defined service, as we've outlined above. It
is not magic. It is based on competitive analysis, and then
clerical execution.
The ONLY way to get good search
rankings today is to actively position your website to compete
effectively in your market place. Our methods have been proven
to do just that, for several years, for dozens and dozens of
real estate sites.
Search engine rankings fluctuate
all the time. Your competitive environment will change, constantly.
New agents are always challenging established players for search
rankings.
Nevertheless, it has been proven again and again that it is
good business to compete for search rankings. When it works
at it's best, the ROI can be astounding, generating traffic
and leads with clock-like regularity. It's worth pursuing.
What's more, we still find that
many real estate markets, even some major metro markets, have
weak SEO competition. A little bit of effort can go a long way.
Yet, there is always the inevitable
element of chance with SEO work. We are all at the mercy of
the search engines.
Please,
READ SEO SERVICE GUARANTEES VERY CAREFULLY.
We've seen them. What does it REALLY say? Many SEO guarantees
are not really what they appear to be, but they are worded carefully
to fool the uninitiated. We'd be glad to discuss them, in detail,
by phone.
The ONLY ranking guarantee that
would really matter in this business is a first page ranking
guarantee in Google for your primary search terms. No reputable
SEO company offers that. Period. In fact, Google's own webmaster
guidelines caution against just such SEO guarantees.
However,
we do offer this service guarantee: We guarantee
that we will help you position your site to compete, within
the budget that you allow, and within the scope of work that
YOU ultimately decide that you need and can afford.
Whatever service you hire us
to do, we will explain what we intend to do for you, in specific
detail. Then we will do it.
From us, you will get what you
pay for, and more, in the way of seasoned, experienced advice.
Start Now!
Find out about SEO competition for YOUR local market. Many metro
areas are still ripe for the picking!
