Search Engine Optimization Project

By
Real Estate Agent with ERA Signature Homes

Some of you may remember when I wrote the following about my Search Engine Optimization Project: 

 Aloha Folks, now that the website name has been changed (www.Hawaii-EstatesforLife.com) and the requested features (blog, newsletter and specials) have been added, we are now proceeding with the search engine optimization project on my website. As you may recall, I started this blog to share my experience with search engine optimization (at fairly great cost) and the guarantee of 60 leads from my website per month for 3 months. Well, we start today and we shall see what happens. While the website updates may not be fully functional (menu buttons still need to be added), you can access the site at http://www.hawaii-estatesforlife.com to see what I'm working with. The optimization is mostly behind the scenes, but I will let you know the stats as we go along. The guarantee is that if the campaign produces less han 60 leads in a given month then either I can choose to be reimbursed proportionately for the deficit leads or they will make them up in the following month. At this point, I will probably opt for the reimbursement because I want to see what these folks can do on a month to month basis before conntinuing. Now, we all know what we can do with 60 leads in a month! We would probably end up sharing them with some of our trusted colleagues since that is a pretty big school of fish to pursue. Of course, I will be contacting each and every one of these leads as soon as I get notification, but as things develop, we will see how many I can actually handle, especially if they come in as tailored to my preferred clientelle as has been indicated they will be. Wish me luck, folks! More later! Aloha, Bob

Well I must report that the project actually came to an abrupt end after 45 days of a paid up 90 day run.  As you can see from the above post, I was promised 60 leads per month and I actually was receiving the promised lead volume for the 45 days (just over 90 leads for the month and a half), but then the provider pulled the plug on my leads and I have been unable to get any response from them since that time!  If anyone has any knowledge of how I can contact IDX Direct, the provider, please let me know.  In the meantime, I would suggest being cautious in dealing with this provider or any other provider of Search Engine Optimization.  I am out a good deal of money here... and I am bitter!

Aloha,

Bob
