"If everyone on our team would produce even ONE targeted, hyper-local blog per week... (or DAILY) our office would DOMINATE  the local market in a short time!" 

Not sure I would make that leap.  DOMINATE in the number of blog posts - very likely.  DOMINATE in terms of new business - that's not so clear cut IMHO.

This week we talked about blogging (again) in our Monday meeting and our broker (again) encouraged all or our agents to get involved with ActiveRain and get blogging!  If everyone on our team would produce even ONE targeted, hyper-local blog per week... (or DAILY) our office would DOMINATE  the local market in a short time! 

 

But agents asked:  WHAT DO WE BLOG ABOUT?    

 

Here are some AWESOME IDEAS FOR YOUR REAL ESTATE BLOG OR WEBSITE!

  1. Great Deal of the Week!  Write about the best house you or your team find each week-- Include pictures!
  2. Great restaurant of the Week!  Choose your local favorite and write about it! Link your blog to their Facebook page!
  3. Featured LOCAL business of the Week! Link your blog to their Facebook page!
  4. Take a photo in your neighborhood, or town and ask  "Where in 'your town' is this?"
  5. Write about current market conditions in your local market.
  6. Write about recent sales in your local market.
  7. Current events in your area... golf tournaments, dog shows, concerts, plays, car shows, etc.
  8. Local election results!
  9. Best "Happy Hours" in your town!
  10. Events and activities for kids in your area!
  11. Dog Park information in your neighborhoods.
  12. Things you LOVE about your town and neighborhood!

When you learn about your community, show that you care by blogging about things people are interested  in... you become the "local expert".  By investing a few minutes daily or even weekly... the content you are posting will pay off with contacts, prospects, and clients in the future!

Good idea - the problem is that if your information is not read or commented on - what is the point. What I recommend is to look at what topics are getting the most traffic and then post similar post or topics that pertain the same information.

Great pointers. It is tough to stay on top of everyday chaos and keep up with the blogging. I try my best to do what I can. I wish I had more time in the day to blog.

Thanks for the pointers.

This is an excellent list... and decently different from other posts I have seen written about the eternal problem of "what to write about."  Very nicely done.
