Save Time & Money

Friday, September 19th, 2008

Simply having an online presence is no longer enough to promote your business. Your online presence must be a powerful conversion tool, or you’re wasting your time.

The average website costs between $1,000 and $5,000 dollars to build from scratch. Many professionals get sold on template websites or ‘no start-up cost’ alternatives, but end up getting burned because of their high maintenance costs(if you want anything changed, it’s a couple hundred bucks) and lack of transferability.

On the other hand, setting up your GoGlobe profile is absolutely free. It only takes a few minutes to complete the registration and fill out your profile. Plus, you don’t need any experience to use the website or update it yourself; it’s as simple as uploading a photo or filling out a form, like you would to shop online.

As I said above though, simply having a website is no longer enough. The Internet is a big place, kind of like the universe, and you need to make it easy for potential customers to find you. In order to get found online, you need to work on SEO or pay for an advertising campaign.

In order to save money, many professionals try to do their own search engine optimization to get ‘high rankings on Google’. What many people do not understand is that SEO is a full time job for many highly paid and highly skilled professionals. It’s an on-going job that takes a great deal of time and effort.

One expert suggested that an agent should spend between three and five hours per day blogging, networking and marketing in forums in order to get ranked high. I don’t know about you, but I don’t have four hours a day to spend fooling around online.

Unlike trying to beat million dollar SEO and advertising budgets for high rankings, we make it easy for your profile to be found on our website. Our professional search alone makes it easy for homeowners to find exactly what type of professional they’re looking for. All you have to do is learn how to position yourself in your community.
