Listing Domains Expands its Product Line

Jan. 21, 2008
Categorized in: Tools

Listing Domains, the original and leading property website provider, announced today that it is expanding its product line to include Just Listed and Just Sold postcards. Partnering with Beyond Graphics, a Real Estate printing company, Listing Domains is able to dynamically pull property photos and details into a printed format making the order process quick and simple.

"We are very excited to now offer our clients the ability to order postcards with a few clicks of the mouse." says Danny Brennan of Listing Domains. "Our order process allows the agents to choose between photos that they have already uploaded to their property website and dynamically place them in the designated areas for a streamlined process that is extremely easy to navigate."

The postcard designs include several color options and were created to help drive more traffic to the agent's listing website. Along with the print material, Listing Domains is continually adding XML feeds to their long list of features and enhancements. "We feed our listing websites to GoogleBase, Trulia, Oodle, Vast and other property portals." says Al Cornelius of ListingDomains.com. "The new postcard product, coupled with the free Domain Rider sign and XML feeds will help drive traffic and increase the number of total visits each website receives."

Visitors to property websites created using the Listing Domains (www.listingdomains.com) system stay much longer than average. According to Neilsen's Net Ratings the average website visit time is 46 seconds. By comparison, the average time spent on each Listing Domains website is 4 minutes, 54 seconds.  Al continues: "In addition to presenting unlimited property photos, bulleted Features and detailed Remarks about the property, Agents may provide links to special documents including disclosures, reports and other information, even sensitive documents that may be password protected. These features add depth to our websites and generate interest from visitors in a way that less informative sites cannot do."
 

The Yard Sign Upgrade

Categorized in: Marketing
As real estate professionals turn their attention to online advertising, ListingDomains.com, innovator of the single property website believes that a tried and true marketing tradition is the key to bridging new and old technologies. With 63% of homebuyers reporting that they use yard signs as a means to hunt for homes, ListingDomains.com is expanding their Domain Rider sign production to include more color choices and different size signs. "We are adding new colors as the demand warrants" says Al Cornelius, COO of Properties Online, LLC. Including the sign rider was a natural progression for the website company who started selling property websites nationally in 2001. "We quickly realized that the sign riders were the key to driving more traffic to the website".
To keep the costs down for the agents, ListingDomains.com began manufacturing their Domain Rider signs in-house. "It was the best way to keep our prices low and ensure a high level of quality control." continues Al. For agents who are not able to post yard signs on properties, ListingDomains.com just rolled out a shipping rebate that will instantly take $15 off the price of each website.
Another way agents are driving traffic to their Listing Websites is by word of mouth. Agents can direct prospects to their websites to view all the vital details of the property along with unlimited color photos (e.g. www.555AnySt.com). Prospects can even download pest inspections and reports directly from the site saving time for both agents and buyers. The seller tells their friends and family to check out their custom property website online and the buyers tell their friends and family across the country to see photos of their new home. Debbie Hegardt from CENTURY 21 NorthBay Alliance says it best "…homeowners end up emailing the link to all of their friends and family and what great exposure that turns out to be for me!...I see Listing Domains not as an option, but a definite necessity when listing any home."
Along with agent driven marketing initiatives, new property portals such as www.GoogleBase.com and www.Trulia.com are also driving more traffic to the websites. "Our program will automatically submit the website to several major property portals to save the agent the hassle of submitting the sites manually" says Al.
Properties Online, LLC hold a U.S. utility patent protecting their property domain name concept and program. As their product was developed by real estate agents and brokers, Listing Domains are built on a platform that is both user friendly and extremely effective at showcasing property listings to a world wide audience.
