Think about your potential clients and what they are typing into Google.  You are the expert of these real estate terms which are foreign to many home buyers so they rely o

Sifting through Google Analytics shows massive clicks on titles starting with 'What is'.  Titling your post along with quality content is key.  

Check out some posts that continue to get the clicks:

What is a Non-Arms Length Transaction?  Major, major clicks.

What is a Non Warrantable Condo?  Written in 2008 and STILL gets the clicks!

What is a Flag Lot...  Thousands of clicks.

What is Repair Escrow? Written in May 2011 and still getting action.

If you can take a subject, that you know a lot about and title it right and include quality content, you have high chances of ranking on Google for that 'what is' term.

So Rainers...what is it going to be?

Tina - The biggest change as of late is Google wanting more quality content.  The posts that aren't giving solid, original information are not going to rank like they used to.  As you give Googe more and more quality posts, your authority ranking should rise making you rank better than you are now.
