Internet Video Marketing is the New Way to Market Real Estate

By
Real Estate Agent with Lucky Star Realty 01708681

Today I received my copy of the monthly Realtor's magazine and on the front cover was a picture of an agent holding and pointing a video camera straight out of the magazine.  This issue featured a story on how Internet video has taken our nation by storm and more people than ever are making and watching videos and movies on the Internet. 

I myself love making videos and movies for fun and in the past 2 years, I have applied those skills toward my real estate marketing as well.  At first, most real estate agents did not bother with my idea and thought that I was wasting my time.  Now, I see a few agents in my market area are starting to produce Internet videos themselves.  So I believe that it is true, Internet Videos are becoming more and more common.  We as real estate professionals and as agents who want to represent our clients and market their listings to the fullest potential should embrace this new technology, or else, we will be left in the dust as other agents move forward and make the sales.

With that said, here are samples of some of my Virtual Real Estate Videos, Enjoy!

What's more, video SEO!  Brightcove offers a FREE whitepaper.  Key recommendations: "Put your content to work by incorporating related links, articles, blog posts, photos, audio—every type of content on your site—around your videos to build context. Prominently position “Get link,” “Grab code,” and “Email to a Friend” calls-to-action to encourage this behavior, which can also improve your ranking in search engines. Ensure that these links point back to pages you have optimized."
