SEO Tips for Tight Budgets

But what if your marketing budget just won’t stretch to cover an in-house SEO consultant? That’s the question one real estate agent put straight to Google, and got this video in response:

Google’s first piece of advice is to focus in on a niche, be it a particular neighbourhood, market or type of buyer or seller. If you’re stuck, check out our ten niche marketing ideas for your real estate website and see which of these you could implement.

Google’s other key piece of advice is to give people strong reasons to link to your website by offering something creative or unique. Why are links so important?
