Promoting Your Real Estate Website Part 1- The Domain Name

Your domain name should be easy to remember and contain keywords.
Realtors often use their name as their web address. This is fine if you are the only realtor in town. Most likely you're not - so save your name for your business cards and concentrate on finding a name that will draw clients to your site.

The best domain names for realtors include the words home/homes and the name of the city they are located in.

 

For example the following domain names will pull visitors to your site like bees to honey:

·        www.DetroitHomes.com

·        www.AlbanyHomesForSale.com

·        www.TroyDreamHomes.com

 

When putting your URL on printed material, it's best to remember the following tips:

 

·        The shorter the URL the better, since it's easier to remember

·        Eliminate "http://" and sometimes "www" since they're not necessary in order for a browser to work

·        Capitalize when appropriate; use both upper and lower case letters in your URL to help the reader identify and remember your site (i.e. DallasHomes.com is more appealing and memorable than dallashomes.com).

·        Use color to differentiate from the rest of the printed text

Your opinion is the key to delivering valuable content. Please rate this article.
