Top Producer Websites Tip

Is your Web site getting tired? Refresh your site with 3 quick updates.

Build your professional credibility with current and prospective clients by updating your website with the details of your latest achievements. Here are three easy updates that you can tackle in an afternoon (or less):

1. Update your biography. Since you first built your website, you've likely gained valuable real estate knowledge and experience. Perhaps you've attended seminars or completed training. Perhaps you've gained experience in additional neighborhoods. Perhaps you've become an expert in a certain type of real estate product or transaction. Or perhaps you've simply gone from being a realtor with 2 years of experience, to a realtor with more. Update your website to match the growth of your experience.
2. Add your latest testimonials. You already know that positive feedback from past clients helps inspire confidence in leads and prospects. Make sure that the testimonials page on your website includes the latest thank you messages and glowing recommendations you've received, and consider adding a testimonial or two to each page within your website.
3. Keep your contact information up-to-date. Make it easy for prospects and clients to contact you by making sure that all of your contact information is on every page of your website. This includes your office and cell phone number, fax number, any toll-free number and your email address.
