QUESTION: WHAT SHOULD I PROVIDE ON MY WEB SITE?

ANSWER:
* Give them a reason to come back. People do business with people they know the best and like the best. Update your site frequently, provide resources that demand your visitor's return...
* Make your site look different than others. This is easy to do with GraphicalData sites as you have control over banners, colors, content, tools and resources. Create a really interesting and appealing home entry page. And our support staff is just a call away if you have questions.
* Since a real estate website's job is to generate interest and establish a need for your services you need to include information about real estate on your website. Provide good content. We've heard the the real estate phrase "location, location, location." Well, on a web site it is content, content, content. With some good basic local information (links) from you, GraphicalData information modules will take care of the rest. GD provides excellent school and neighborhood information and listing database which seamlessly integrate into your site.
* Capture names or emails. You can do that by the myriad number of forms you can provide in your site...general comment form, showing request form, free cma form, free newsletter subscribe form, free school information form, free neighborhood information forms and more.

QUESTION: HOW DO I KEEP VISITORS IN MY SITE?

ANSWER:
Buyers and Sellers today have it easy with the Internet. They can visit literally thousands of websites that enable them to search for home and property listings. There are unlimited offers for free CMA's. Most have links to other sources of information. Why should they stay and use your web site??Most websites provide links to other sites for school information, neighborhood information and the like. Want school information? "Click Here!" And off you go to another website. Want mortgage info? "Click Here!" and off they go again. It is critical that you provide the information and resources that Buyers and Sellers are looking for 1) within your site, and 2) that they don't leave your site via an external link that you yourself may have created in an effort to provide that information.
How do you keep them in your web site?? Making a long story short, you need to have the information available right within your site so that your potential customers don't "surf" away and wind up on one of those other thousands of sites. So, why should they stay in your site...how do you keep them in your site...YOU provide the information. In times past, it has been expensive to provide quality, current information integrated into a small business site. Today, for a very affordable fee, anyone can have the latest school and local demographic area information, as well as custom formatted presentation of listings to meet various needs. Fortunately, GraphicalData seamlessly integrates these types of informational systems right into your site...and continues to add new and improved information streams on a regular basis.
