We put the perfect summary of our SEO program in this PDF you can download. It includes our approach to your Real Geeks SEO, what we do to help you rank and retain hard earned traffic, and also our simple pricing.
Our Real Geeks SEO Program
Everyone has different goals. We tailor our SEO plan to your real estate business, your local market, and your budget. Depending on your specific needs and local market conditions we utilize the following in order to get you positioned for success. From keyword research, taking a holistic approach, optimizing + adding extremely valuable content — you can rest easy knowing your long term traffic and conversion goals are in the absolute best hands.
Keyword Research
Every real estate market is different. Therefore, every SEO plan cannot utilize the same set of keywords. We will research the exact keywords that people are typing in your current real estate market, and develop a strategy around it. Reverse engineering.
Helpful Content Creation
The creation of helpful, people focused, content heavy area pages that not only are optimized properly — but have a fantastic UX to reduce bounce rate as much as possible. We believe that SEO goes hand in hand with user experience, so let's marry the two eh?
Unique Content Creation
The research & creation of fresh, local content per month is a surefire way to increase organic traffic. This is crucial for any good SEO plan — and the search engines can tell when you are creating content that is truly different.
Google My Business Optimization
Your GMB profile is a powerful listing that shows up on the Google SERP, and can either provide you a ton of organic traffic if utilized correctly, or not at all. We will create and/or optimize your listing to ensure your listing looks exactly as it should, and also attract the right traffic with every relevant search.
Link Building
In short: the more external websites link to your website, the more fuel is added to your ranking authority. We will create opportunities for authentic links pointing back to your site through content promotion and guest blogging.
Local Citations
Local citations is exactly what it sounds like. A local mention of your business. This can be on local websites, businesses, etc. It can help impact local search rankings where your next client is most likely to be searching from.
Blogging
While we encourage agents to blog whenever they can, we also add these as part of our services to attract long term pipeline type leads. Blogs such as "The best Seattle neighborhoods to live in" with links leading to search results can bring in leads that your competition could never convert.
Technical Audits
The easiest way to kill your SEO progress is broken links, missing webpages, UX issues, etc. We will ensure your site stays up to speed, with zero dead ends, and is completely crawlable by the search engines at all times.
UX Adjustments
Aside from our fully fledged web design services, we offer complimentary UX improvements to anything that could potentially hinder your SEO results on your Real Geeks website. We truly believe most SEO programs don't perform to their highest potential due to lack of good UX, therefore increasing bounce rate.
Ultimate Guides for Real Geeks SEO
An “Ultimate Guide” is essentially a total, reverse engineered guide targeting the top overall keywords to a respective area. Creating TONS of the most valuable, unique content that contains information such as local attractions, historic weather conditions, commute times, history of your area, and more. It all depends on your area. Keyword research needs to be done to discover this. You also need to provide a ton of internal and external linking (with something called “no refer” links) to provide as much value as possible to a potential reader — Google loves this. We provide “Ultimate Guides” as an inclusive service with our SEO plans. It’s a game changer and can really take you to the top. Most agents don’t create these guides because they are strenuous to create, but they really do pay off. The example from Reed Melton’s website in Bend Oregon is a prime example of this done right. Check it out and see for yourself!

We emphasize Google's preference for user-beneficial content in real estate SEO. It provides our clients with strategies to create impactful, people-first content, aligning with Google's helpful content standards.

Read Google’s white paper on what it means to position your website for best visibility.
Helpful Content, People-Focused SEO
We also delve into optimizing page experience for SEO, integrating user engagement, responsive design, and accessibility. Emphasizing the importance of a people-first approach, we advise against search engine-first content, highlighting the need for valuable, engaging, and informative material. We follow the E-E-A-T principles in real estate SEO, offering practical tips for demonstrating experience, expertise, authoritativeness, and trustworthiness in content creation. Read our comprehensive guide for a roadmap to enhancing your online presence and SEO effectiveness in 2024 and beyond, and how we can help.
How does Search Engine Optimization work?
The whole point of SEO is to attract more clients that you want to your website. When someone searches a keyword on Google such as “Seattle Homes for Sale”, the hope is to be near the top of the first page of results. The further down you are on the results page, the less likely you will be to capture the traffic searching that keyword.
How do you do SEO? Through keyword/market research, creating pages on your site, writing unique local content, back-linking, blogging — the list goes on and on. It must be deemed helpful by Google. It takes time to build good SEO and it’s a fantastic, sustainable addition to your marketing arsenal. It can be a tedious process that most real estate agents don’t have the time for. This is where we step in so you can focus on what you do best: sell homes!

This was the second time I've had Vanity Geeks update and redesign our real estate website. Our experience with Kevin and his team has been nothing but positive and we are very appreciative of their work! Kevin has a keen eye for website design and deep understanding of website functionality. He listened to our wants and provided tons of great ideas. Now we have a website that not only looks beautiful, but also functions nicely on a variety of devices! We noticed an increase in traffic and engagement on our site after Kevin's first update to our site a few years ago. Now with the improved user experience he created with the more modern, user-friendly design, we are confident that this will translate into an increase of our business! Thanks for another great job, Kevin!

I absolutely love the way Vanity Geeks revised my website to look modern, and professional. Prior to working with Kevin, I had a bland website that really didn't speak my brand name. Now, with these new revisions I can confidently work in the marketplace knowing that I am well-branded, and professional. Thanks Vanity Geeks! Highly recommended ... 💖 ...

Kevin is TOP NOTCH!! He's got this design thing down to a science and my website looks incredible. I have also noticed that we are getting more conversions and people are using the new widgets, Specifically the what's my home worth imbedded into the tile listings and the "make and offer" feature. All in all, well worth it, and I'll be working with him in the future to enhance all of my internet initiatives. THANK YOU KEVIN!
