Copywriting is vital to a real estate website. Your visitors are looking for information about real estate in your area, and we want them to find it on your site. But it's not enough to create a really useful real estate site, if nobody will find it.

Our writers have a uniquely strong background in SEO – they can rank pages as well as they write them.

Writing for Search Engine Rankings

Keyword Inclusion – Quantity

We maintain an optimal proportion of keywords in the various elements of your pages. It used to be common to pack keywords into web pages — but luckily for consumers, Google is no longer impressed so easily. Today's informed SEO's avoid overloading the text with repetitive keywords, maintaining a classy austerity that still brings search engines to your page.

At Real Estate Webmasters, we've perfected the art of organic keyword inclusion, enhanced by controlled placement of search terms (including the long-tail) to rank you above your competitors.

Keyword Inclusion – Semantic Indexing

The search engines are getting much better at finding real information, but they'll miss your pages (however useful) if you haven't properly identified them in a way that the search engines understand. It's not enough to slap a keyword into any old page of text — your copy must really be about real estate.

Latent semantic indexing means that search engines can see whether your content is really about what you say it is. They are aware, for instance, that a page about real estate is likely to include related terms, like "properties", "agent", and "homes". So we've made it standard in the writing department to write with this in mind.

Keyword Inclusion – Proximity and Priority

Another formula for ranking involves the positioning of keywords. It's important to include them in every possible element of the page — ideally, the title, headings, and paragraphs will all contain the keywords.

There are also complicated rules for their relative positioning. Keywords can indicate relevance through a controlled proximity to other terms, and they should obey the search engines' laws of super-positioning.

This is a simplification of onpage SEO, but it should indicate some of the depth of our involvement with each client's copy.

Area-specific Marketing Copy

You must be recognized as an authority in your area, so you can't just insert your name into a pre-written marketing module.

Agents whose sites actually discuss their geographical region are much more likely to convert their leads, and that's why we press our clients for details about their area and its real estate market. Whatever you can communicate about real estate in your area of service, we can transcribe onto your website in a clean and professional format.

Our copy also fosters a healthy real estate environment by:

• Promoting enthusiasm for real estate investment and activity
• Encouraging readers to employ a realtor's assistance
• Promoting your region, especially with regard to lifestyle and return on investment
