My first website was launched in 1997. It was obvious to my husband and I that internet marketing of real estate was the most exciting innovation we had seen in our long real estate career. Of course, that website has been updated many times since then and is one of the most comprehensive and informative sites on the internet.
The following graphs developed by the National Association of REALTORS in 2007 are self explanatory and show just how right we were.
However, the second graph shows which information sources are most important to the consumer.
My website incorporates the first two elements of the second graph.
Over the past 10 years we have spent thousands of dollars and time creating reciprocal, linking relationships with other real estate related websites. That effort has resulted in my website now being linked to more than 1,000 websites. Just GOOGLE my name, Karen Kruschka, and you'll readily see how effective our efforts have been.
Your listing is sent to my website over a direct feed and is immediately available to be viewed on more than 3,000 websites around the world.
Additionally, we pay for PREMIUM POSITIONING OF OUR LISTINGS on major real estate portals and search engines.
I utilize software that enables me to create and upload (with its' own URL) a virtual tour of your home - it also appears on a separate domain name which I own SEEAVIRTUALTOUR.COM, on major search engines and there is a rider on my yard sign directing people to it.
Yes, we believe internet marketing is "here to stay."
