Setting the Tone through Your Text
The copy you present to your visitors is crucial to the continued
interest of the potential client. Poorly written copy literally shouts:
Amateur! In order to translate to your visitors that you are a professional,
you must prove it to them.
The copy is an integral component to the design process. Typos,
incorrect grammar and punctuation, misspelled words, and ambiguous
text will inevitably lead the visitors to your site to believe
that either 1) you do not care enough about your business to enlist
the support of professional copywriters and thus will not bring
the commitment desired to their real estate transaction, or 2)
you do not know what you are doing—you are an amateur. To
be successful as an agent, neither of the former situations is
acceptable.
Search Engine Ranking
Great copywriting can also result in more first-time visitors to
your site. In fact, it is safe to state that copywriting is one
of the most critical elements in obtaining high search-engine
rankings. Search engines are primarily text-grabbing software.
They look for key words in the text and place the web site accordingly.
Too many key words in your text may get you listed, but the visitor
is turned off by over saturated copy that sounds stiff and monotonous.
On the other hand, too few words will result in a lower search
engine listing. Finding the right balance is accomplished only
through the skills of a professional copywriter.
Many people can write. But are you confident that your text will
obtain the same results Abacus could provide? There is a distinct
difference between copy and search engine copy. My existing clients
can certainly attest to the advantage of the latter.
Your Professional Image
Your copy must be the selling point for you. It needs to grab the
visitor and convince him that you are, indeed, a professional.
Your commitment to excellence through your Internet presence
will communicate to your visitors that you are their realtor.
