How Good is Your Single Property Website?

AgencyLogic single property PowerSiteDo you think that your single property Websites are as good as they can be? Do they contain all of the information that buyers are looking for – even expecting – when they are searching real estate properties online?

Here’s a checklist to make sure you are taking advantage of your AgencyLogic PowerSite:

Photographs:

Are you uploading enough photos? The PowerSite allows you to upload up to 100 images to your single property website.

You don’t need to stop with photos of the property – try taking some photographs of the neighborhood and the highlights of the area in general. You can even re-use these area-specific photos for future listings.

Virtual Tours and Video Tours:

Many agents use virtual tours in conjunction with their single property Websites. It is easy to add a menu link direct to your virtual or video tour, providing a multi-media experience for your viewers.

Descriptive Text:

The PowerSite offers unlimited descriptive text to describe your listing. Although many pictures do a great job of demonstrating the property, there are many additional details that are helpful for buyers to learn. Try to include rich, detailed descriptions as well as notes on each feature of the property. Mentioning details about systems, upgrades and even detailing room measurements will assist in answering many buyer questions online.

Custom Pages:

You can add custom pages that provide additional information for the buyer. Let them get to know the area better by providing links to other Websites, mass transit schedules or cultural locations and attractions nearby.

Documents:

Upload documents, agreements and floor plans that will save everyone time. You can choose to make these automatically accessible by the general public, or password protect them and use these as a lead generation tool!

February 2007 PowerSite of the Month Winner

It is our pleasure to announce that February’s PowerSite of the Month has been awarded to Drew & Linda Hartanov and The Hartanov Team in San Clemente, CA. Their PowerSite www.avenidagranada.com is outstanding.

Customers visiting their site get a complete picture of not only the property, but of the community as well because they utilized our custom links feature to link everything from an online community guide to relocation information. Additional custom links bring the potential buyers to their personal blog and featured property listings, all of which add depth, keep customers engaged and enhance the image of The Hartanovs as experts in the field.

By adding a beautiful scenic home page photo to the PowerSite, matched with our beach template design, The Hartanov Team really created a site that is both eye catching and rich in detail.

Drew and Linda also effectively use our free Lighthouse Marketing tools to increase their positioning in the top search engines. By customizing their Key Word text using the words, “Pier Bowl Condo” and “Avenida Granada Condo,” they get many hits on their PowerSite from people searching on these terms. In fact, as of February 2, 2007, searching under “Pier Bowl Condo” on Google will reveal www.avenidagranada.com as the number one result!

The Hartanovs have fully enjoyed the success of marketing their properties with PowerSites. They did 83 transactions last year and believe that PowerSites make their customers feel they are going above and beyond traditional marketing to make their properties standout from the rest.
