A lot of real estate agents aren’t willing to go the extra mile to stand out from the crowd, but if you are that individual who wants to succeed then listen up. If you haven’t already, you should start adding community-specific information on your professional website.

Be The Local Expert

When people are looking to buy a home they almost always search for community information to see where they want to live. By providing this information on your website you become the go-to expert when they come across your community blogs.

If you have been servicing a particular area for a while, you are likely to know a fair amount about the community. It’s as easy as typing your knowledge out on community blogs. Talk about the history, schools, entertainment, shops, restaurants, the housing market, local events, and more.

Just think, if you were going to move to a new area this type of information could empower you to make an informed decision. When you give people the information that they need you become the local expert and they are more likely to want to work with you on their real estate transaction.

Be Found

Having community information also works to help you be found in search results online. The more useful and interesting your information is, the more your blogs will be shared and found in searches.

Once you publish your latest community blog go ahead and share it on your various social media accounts like Facebook, Twitter, and Google Plus. People also love to hear about what’s going on in the local community, so don’t hesitate to feature some upcoming events that others in the area will want to go to and share with their friends. This is a smart way to gain traffic and improve your chances of becoming someone’s real estate agent. Just be sure to end your blogs with a real estate related call-to-action that includes your contact information.
