Google for Realtors, A Must in Today's Market

Google has plenty to offer any Realtor looking to get property exposure, save time, prospect, organize, and not spend any money doing it.  Here are a few of my favorites:

Google Base is a place where you can easily submit all your listings, which you can make searchable on Google (if your content isn't online yet, you can put it there). Here’s an example of a Goggle Base ad you can run for 14 days Free. When it expires, just renew it for another 14 days.

With Google Reader, keeping up with your favorite websites is as easy as checking your email. Google Reader constantly checks your favorite news sites and blogs for new content. I can also share my reader items that I think others may be interested in.
 
Google Alerts are email updates of the latest relevant Google results (web, news, etc.) based on your choice of query or topic. Some handy uses of Google Alerts include:
  • Monitoring a developing news story
  • Keeping current on a competitor or industry
  • Tracking an event, sports team or hobby
FeedBurner owned by Google is great to use for your Blogs and websites. Feeds are a way for websites large and small to distribute their content well beyond just visitors using browsers. Feeds permit subscription to regular updates.
 
This is just a sample of all the tools available from Google to market your brand, impress your sellers, and attract more buyers, plus become more organized. They also have one of the most complete Free Profiles that you can build for additional marketing.
