What’s in a Real Estate Website? Humm… Cook in some Links with Ctrl-K!!!
Real Estate Websites come in all shapes and forms but an important ingredient in their makeup has remained obscure… When I ask Brokers and Realtors: “What’s a Web Page?” – they are stumped!!! They keep seeking philosophical answers that go beyond the obvious components of a Web Page. I hear everything but the obvious ingredients such as: text, pics and links…
It can’t be that easy…
I claim: “Anyone can create a “Web Page!””
I claim: “Putting together a “Web Page” is easier than using Microsoft Word!”
I claim: “You start with a Web Page to create a Website! (Duhhh!!!)”
I claim: “There is nothing inherently different between a “Web Page” and a “Blog Page.” – One allows for comments the other not!”
I claim: “Those who commit themselves to Blogging (Writing a Web Page) once a week will have the highest visibility in their Real Estate Market!!!”
So how do I proceed?
- You must be able to put words together into sentences and paragraphs – we call that writing. Everyone is capable of doing this. You cannot be a story-teller without the ability to write. But don’t fret we are not looking for brilliant discourse; you are focusing on sharing the happenings of your community to the general public – and using blogs is the way to go. You get the point?!
- Inserting pictures would be nice – but not required…
- The only ingredient left to add are links – it’s so easy… Ctrl-K. Yes by using the combination of Keys on your Keyboard “CTRL” and “K” you create a link.
- The web would not exist without links – you are always headed somewhere else on the web by clicking on links. In fact the internet would be called a “Book” if it did not have links; Right!?
- So how do you create a link? Easy…
- (a.) Know your destination: Each web page has an address; it’s called a URL. You will see it in your browser: http://www.realestatewebtrainer.com/real-estate-internet-strategy-index.html
- (b.) Copy that Page Address. (Select the URL and hit Ctrl-C; or Right-Click and select Copy.)
- (c.) Select and highlight the text you want to link: for example in the sentence: “Key Yessaad is a Real Estate Web Trainer.” I want to link the words “Real Estate Web Trainer” to the address above.
- (d.) Hit “Ctrl-K” by holding the Control Key “CTRL” and tapping the letter “K” – a window will pop and all you have to do is Paste (Ctrl-V) the URL address you copied in step (b.)
- (e.) You are done: You will end up with something like this:
“Key Yessaad is a Real Estate Web Trainer.”
if you click on the link it will then take you to the page on step (a)
- (f.) Remember: You can link anything to anywhere. And isn’t that the essence of the Web…?!
So start Blogging and become your local community expert – stop pretending you have expertise in every aspect of Real Estate and become locally focused and customer oriented; you will love the results and your clients will love you!!!
