Google Profiles for Real Estate Agents

By
Managing Real Estate Broker with Golf Life Properties, LLC

Today on Twitter I learned that by some estimates, 30% of all Web searches are now conducted to find other people and Google Profiles will become more important to this search process.

Google Profiles allow you to create a short bio with photos and more importantly link to your website and social media links.

If you don’t have a Google account, you’ll need to sign up for one and then fill out as much of the profile as you can.

Sign up for a Google Profile.

It only took me a few short minutes to set one up and share with friends on multiple social networks.

Check out my profile

Hi Nishika- I saw Missy's google profile and it looked great. I used to have one but now I have to change mine up because of Google not having multiple email account merging abilities. I will get mine done this week. It is a must to have one, thanks for the reminder. Katerina

There must be something in the water.  : ) I read  at least three blogs talking about Google profile last week alone.  I created mine just the other day, but I haven't put in my photo yet, although I like the logo that they have there instead of my face.  LOL

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the post - I have a google account and just haven't ever gotten around to putting a profile up.  I will do that now.  Great idea - in this market, every little idea really helps.  You just never know where that next client will find you.

I don't know if this is happening to everyone but last week when I logged onto my system there was a message from Google to "fill out your profile" so I did.  How convenient.  I wish every other networking tool would flag me like that.  A free profile.  It's a wonderful thing.

Go to get on this quickly. Still trying to get to my facebook page. And the website absolutely must get updated.

Thanks for the push.

Nishika, I have a google account but had no idea they had searchable profiles.  I guess I should be checking that out.  Thanks for posting!

This looks like a good way to centralize our web presence, and if it's part of Google, even better! Thanks for the tip, Nishika.
