Can estate agent websites make money? One estate agent shouts
"Yes!"
Many estate agents see
estate agent websites, website design and Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) as an extra
cost where their website is just a point of reference rather than
an investment that will give back massive ROI. One estate agent,
Chris Hall, director of Dart and
Partners has even released a statement in the local press
confirming the increase in sales and worldwide exposure.
Chris Hall stated, "It was decided in early 2007 that although
we already had a fairly good website we identified a definite
requirement for something both market leading and professional
enough to get our properties really noticed by people searching
on-line from all over the UK and abroad."
In the summer of 2007, Dart and
Partners had a website commissioned, developed and hosted by
Resource Techniques using the latest technologies. In two years,
the website has seen huge success with 50,000 unique visitors,
three quarters of a million web pages viewed and visitors browsing
properties from the US, South Africa and Australia.
Chris Hall stated, "These numerous hits to our website have
undoubtedly led directly to more than a few sales over the last two
years, and the time and resources we've put in have definitely been
more than worthwhile!"
Any estate agent with a market leading website and online
presence can enjoy this type of exposure. It is accessible by
anyone in the globe (with an internet connection), 24 hours a day
365 days a year, not stopping to sleep or rest. Once set up, a
continual Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) service is
needed to boost the amount of people viewing properties by
increasing the amount of traffic. Dart and Partners is currently
No.1 on Google for 'Teignmouth estate agents' an achievement that
sees the Dart and Partners website attain a unique visitor
accessing the website every 20 minutes!

Once on the website, visitors are able to use a whole range of
features and technologies such embedded Google Maps, Email Alerts,
stunning homepage animations and the latest viewer technology that
is used by the BBC and Sony. User experiences such as these give
the WOW factors that users are looking for.
Resource Techniques specialises in estate agent website design, SEO and in-house software that allows estate agents to
add property particulars with easy to use software. Resource
Techniques is able to offer even more features from the latest
technologies such as embedded Google Street View, enhanced Google
maps that include local amenities and virtual tours.
