Real Estate Virtual Assistant’s Top 10 Blog Must-Haves

Real Estate Virtual Assistant’s Top 10 Blog Must-Haves

If you have spent a few minutes talking to me or reading my blog, you’ll have learned by now that my promotion is not in the website, but in the blog. I probably talk about the importance and significance of a blog versus a website a half dozen times a day with new and potential clients – I just can’t stress it enough – put your efforts in and around your blog and you’ll have AMAZING results!

Here’s this Real Estate Virtual Assistant‘s Top 10 Blog Must Haves:

  1. Listings & Property Search IDX (YES!  You Can have your IDX on your Blog!)
  2. Interactive Maps of Recent Listings/Sold Properties (YES!  You can have maps and/or automatically updated listings of active and sold listings on your Blog!)
  3. Market Reports (your Blog is great place to promote your Top Producer Market Snapshot program)
  4. Multiple Property Photos (YES!  You can promote your properties on your blog!)
  5. Detailed Community and School information
  6. Videos (get your cam out and get up close and personal with your prospects!)
  7. Lead Capture and Contact Forms (YES!  Do you have RSS feeds?  Then you can easily gain leads from each and every blog post you create!  Contact Forms are a snap with the cformsII plugin)
  8. Automatic lead follow-up (another great plugin is Comment Relish – leave a comment below and see what happens in your inbox!)
  9. Agent contact information on each and every page
  10. Integration of all social networking pieces (get your links to your linkedin, twitter, facebook, plaxo, activerain, etc., added into your blog so that when you post on your blog site, the information is automatically updated everywhere else!

What are you waiting for?  I know, I know, you don’t know how to write, you don’t want to write, you don’t have time to write, you simply just hate writing!  Am I right?!   Don’t let that affect your online marketing and powerful online presence – there are answers and I’ll be happy to share them with you – try out #8 and let’s talk!

  1. love the list. As a real estate agent on the other side of the world, your market is ahead of us by a six month to a year in terms of agent social media marketing etc. So its great to follow market leaders in this field to learn and emulate for success

    Great ideas. I do hate to write and am horrible at it as well. What are your ideas?

  6. Suzanne Roy says:

    Hey Rob, you can also check out http://www.realestatetomato.com for some great insights on what and how to write your blog articles. I can also provide you with highly relevent, search engine optimized content as often (or infrequently) as you would like. Shoot me an email if you would like pricing.

    I can recommend the Real Estate Tomato as well. The new “university” is a great way to take some “classes” if you don’t want to sign up for the whole thing.
