Hi Everyone,

We hope that you are all enjoying our great Kansas winter weather!

The ice and snow tried to slow us at Front Door Real Estate, Inc., down, and the mix succeeded on everyday items such as showings, listings, errands, open houses, etc. But, the blizzard conditions were no match for us when it came down to providing the most useful real estate website in Southeast Kansas!

The new and improved MyFDRE.com allows you to search all of the listings of the 5-County Board of Realtors Multiple-Listing Service and Front Door Real Estate's Featured Listings in one convenient location! Have you tried out our great property search feature we offer that is completely free? If you have not simply go to www.MyFDRE.com. You’ll be able to enter your search criteria and browse through properties that meet your specific needs.

Our Website also includes real estate tips for both buying and selling, up-to-date real estate news articles, Jared Leek's personal blog, and links to attractions and businesses in the Fort Scott community.

We invite you to explore with us at www.MyFDRE.com!

Sincerely,

Jared

I was reading my February 2010 addition of "Realtor" Magazine and came across an article written by Katherine Tarbox called “6 Weeks to Better Search Engine Results”. As I started to read Katherine’s article it was as if she had wrote this article just for me. I just recently spent a large part of my advertising budget to “revamp” my website (MyFDRE.com).

Her article begins, “After investing time and money to build a spectacular Web site, you’d probably like to sit back and watch those online leads roll in. Not so fast. You still have a very important job ahead of you-ensuring that prospects and clients can actually find your site. And one of the best ways to see results quickly, experts say, is to optimize your site for search engines. Even if you did this when you developed your site, there are may be room for improvement.”

This article then provides a 6-week program to make your Web site more user friendly and suggestions to make your site more visible on the Web.

I started, “Week 1: Write Better Page Titles”, so, guess what I did this evening… Yep, I started altering my Web site’s page titles to be more direct and focused on the Fort Scott Kansas Real Estate Market versus Real Estate in general. Prior to doing so, I checked Google searching “Fort Scott Kansas Homes For Sale” my site is currently on Page 6.

Very disappointed in my Page 6 placement; I took Katherine’s “challenge” to make my site more visible to potential clients.

I will let everyone know how it goes… you will hear from me next week as I take on, “Week 2: Broadcast Your Links”.
