Key words increase traffic to estate agent websites

Search engine optimisation (SEO) and estate agent website design goes hand in hand. When creating a visually impressive website that stuns estate agents, estate agents and website designers must also consider the keywords that will be placed into the website.

For estate agents that are unsure, SEO is a way of changing the content so that the website will appear higher in a search engine. There are several ways of making sure that SEO for the estate agent website will be higher in search engines, one way is keyword choices.

These keywords will be used by search engines to index the estate agent website and include the keywords as part of a process when they decide how high the website should be and what search terms they will be under. Therefore estate agents need really think what people will search for when looking for property.

One of the major things considered is local area. Eight of ten people move within a five mile radius, therefore property searchers will include the area that they want to move into within their search term.

Consider using these keywords on the estate agent website:

• Estate agents in **
• Property in **
• Houses for sale in **
• Flats for sale **

Another keyword option to consider is the types of properties that estate agents deal in. For example, an estate agent that deals in country estates should focus on providing content on their websites that says 'country estates'.

Keywords are only one of the ways that can improve your SEO. Read this article for more information 'search engine optimisation or SEO, is it worth it?'
