This will be a great event and is very close to most of the cities within reach of the Los Angeles Metro Area.  Be sure to go to the VTD-VTAC website and register before hand.  Click on the photo of the car show flyer above!!!

In fact, photos that accompany each and every blog post are a true asset to Google’s algorithm.

We pay a minimal amount for the ability for being able to capture images from our Various Real Estate Resources.

Here are some of the common items we capture.

• Easy Web Video’s:  This is our very own upload platform for videos.  We have categorized over 440 videos to YouTube showing the in’s and outs of real estate.  We can capture the “interactive Video” that is uploaded to Easy Web Video dot com and present it within a blog post.
• Foreclosure Radar:  This system seems to be one that agent’s don’t see the value in.  We have been able to work with many various buyers from different walks of life with our “previewing” of the Foreclosure inventory for Santa Clarita Valley and the other Southern California Cities.
• Diverse Solutions:  The DS system is unique.  It allows us to upload the current market snapshot and have the photo reroute to the page that is rendering all of the listings that are applicable.
• LifeStyle Real Estate Search:  With the consumer in mind, the real estate interested, we are able to capture the screen shots of various searches and have the photo link to that particular search.  Whether distressed searches or searches by various bedrooms, bathrooms, price and area combinations.

These are just a few examples of what our on screen photo captures are able to be used for.  If you want more intel regarding how to get your Business or Real Estate site to the top of the SERP’s(search engine results pages), give me a shout out so we can help you.

Even if you are in our same industry, having that “connection” blesses our buyers and sellers in Santa Clarita real estate.

When you are wanting to hunt for real estate – why not go for a resource where you can find everything you are looking for?  When it comes to real estate search and inquires, our website is tops at a Local Level in the City of Valencia California.  Located within the Santa Clarita Valley – Valencia is one of the 6 cities that we service at REMAX of Valencia CA.

Besides these cities – you can find many other resources for the surrounding areas in Southern California at our Paris911 Real Estate systems.  Besides, when you are using local real estate search systems, you don’t have to be bothered by people that are going to monetize your personal information.  Meaning, you are not going to enter into the “spam” realm.

Paris and I, at REMAX of Valencia, own and operate the best Active real estate search portals, all with one thing in common, those systems are updated several times per hour and give instantaneous property renderings.  This varies from most of the real estate syndication websites which are built around lead generation for the most part.  In fact, there are properties that I pull, on an almost daily basis that our clients have found on some of these websites.  After gathering my Intel on them I find that a few of the listings are routinely in escrow(under contract), and are not actually available.  I find others that have expired long ago and some that are no where on the “for sale now or ever” market.

You owe it to yourself to value your time spent searching for Valencia CA real estate.  Make sure you are getting the best advice when approaching the Real estate plate.

If you are a masterful writer of content, or even a so-so one that is creating content by answering consumers questions, you will not have a need for “pay for click”.  But, if you are just starting out on-line, the “pay per click” does level the playing field when it comes to “on-line exposure”. 

Know your Business keywords:

Have you ever wondered how people may be searching for your business?  In the Santa Clarita Valley, as far as real estate is concerned, we have various costs’ associated with the “largest” keywords in our market.  ”Santa Clarita Real Estate”, can cost a Buyer anywhere from $3.00 to $7.00 a click.  Don’t look at this as a way to end your competition and deplete their pay per click balance.  You only get one crack at a competitors balance from the clicking on any sponsored ad.

Google has a Keyword Tool.  Type in some brief business information and you will see the results populate the page.  You will be able to see how people are searching for your type of business.

Pay Per Click companies:

While there is not much to putting together a pay per click ad, most can do it themselves, it may not hurt to talk with company that only does “pay per click” management.  Some of these companies can be quite insightful when it comes to managing your pay per click campaign.  I’m sure some of those pay per click companies rep’s will respond to this post, see if their comments below add value or are built around self promotion only.  Go for the ones that are “adding value”.

DIY – Pay Per Click Do it Yourself:

After you get your keywords and what  you want to be known for, get into Google and start your own Pay Per Click Campaign(Ad-Words).  The same would apply for Yahoo and Bing.  You can set your pay per click campaign at only one of the Search Engines, or you can set accounts up on all of the Search Engines.  Your choice, but I’d start a bit slower to tune your ads and landing pages(more about this next…).

Start slow, find out what items get more clicks.  Make sure you have a “contact” form that is highly recognizable on the landing page.  Make every dollar spent on the pay per click campaign pays off by having the page, you have the “clickers” land on, optimized in the best way possible so you can obtain the visitors information and conduct a follow-up.

Organic versus Pay Per Click:

We will talk about “Content being King” in a future post about your BEST Business methods.  However, I’ll leave you with this.  While Pay Per Click campaigns work well.  There is something quite reassuring, to a “Googler”, to have your own business website at the top of the “organic” search results pages.  How you will do this is by adding value to what you sell or to the service you provide.  Write without ceasing and then write some more.  Get involved in the conversation, ask questions and answer the same.

Santa Clarita California Weekly Market Update for the week of May 13, 2012

REMAX’s Paris911 team Breaking new ground when it comes to real estate searches is what keeps our clients on top of the real estate market.  We have given coined names to all of our engines – our most famous is the MaCBox – Mac – for the first three letters of our last name, MacIvor – and Box – well, because it is a box.

We have just spoken about the Santa Clarita real estate inventory, the current list prices and the issues with regard to supply and demand.  You can check out our YouTube channel at SCV Moves or by hitting our Real estate in Santa Clarita community Blog.

BE Safe – here is a quick video recapping the most recent changes during the last week in the Santa Clarita real estate market.

When you have other agents and their clients inside of the home you are evaluating, you are having a constant stream of distractions. You are about to embark on a journey that will take you at least 30 years to pay off.  Tell your real estate agent that you don’t want anyone else inside of the home you are viewing, at the same time.  Explain to them that you need to concentrate and get the full feel of the home.  Have you ever tried to hear road noise while viewing a property when someone is talking constantly or walking around with heavy feet?  It’s nearly impossible.

But to offend someone versus getting the full “feel” of a home our clients are interested in purchasing, I will have my clients on the “offensive” side all day long.

Maybe it is time you had your real estate agent of choice change gears.  Downshift and start to climb the hill in a different way.  In fact, the “Paris911, ONE PARTY SHOW”, may be just the thing that is going to get you the property that you have been wanting to purchase.

Real estate is never by luck. Although, I have heard it say that I’d rather be lucky than good. But in the long run, hard work is going to pay off many more times, more often than luck will. That is why Paris, myself and our real estate team operate out side of the traditional real estate methods. Will there is a will, there is a way. We are all about our clients and want to help them accomplish their goals. The happier we make our clients, the more people they will tell. Referrals are the best pay off for GREAT service.
