Question: I just launched a new website, and I devoted a page to each small suburb of Chicago, IL. I want to put a recommended Realtor on every page for my customers to see. In exchange, I was going to ask that that Realtor do the same for me on their site. I don't want to do just basic link exchanging because I think this will work better and get both of us more business and better traffic.
If you are interested, please email me at info@insuringchicago.com. Here are the areas that I am looking for a Realtor for:
Chicago
Elmhurst
Evanston
Northbrook
Naperville
Wheaton
Schaumburg IL
Arlington Heights
Elgin
Palatine
Geneva
Lisle
Lombard
Westchester
Downers Grove
Itasca
