1. When it comes to online reviews, Yelp is one you should not ignore. Millions of folks use
Yelp for their small business and Real Estate is included in the marketing mix. That number
should increase well into the New Year.
The reason you need a full-fledged profile on YELP for Bloom is to appear on page 1 of any
google search. If I wanted to google “Genevie Frederick Bloom Realty”, that should be on the
first things I or anyone else should see. If you are highly-reviewed, this will and should only
increase. In addition, a complete profile will move you to the higher authority to your
google places page (I can get into the SEO aspect at a later). These coincide with one another.
These should have the same amount of info for maximum SEO advantage. To reiterate
“street” and “st” would be measured as distinctions. You want them to have about the same
exact info as having a complete Yelp profile would boost your “Google rankings”.
Listing syndication and addresses
Subsequently, you in actuality should to make certain your information and reviews look
great on Yelp for the reason that other networks pull information from here.
There are over 150 addresses, phone number, and other databases for local businesses out
there. Although the majority of your clients and potential clients will discover you through
Google, you want to make sure everyone is reading the accurate and most up-to-date
information about you on the net.
2. Yelp syndicates their information to these hundreds of other websites. So, you want to make
positive it’s the accurate contact information they are putting out there!
When it comes to receiving reviews and testimonials, it’s simply a statistics competition. Not
to sound elementary but y ou need to make it a part of your business practice to follow up
with all your clients and make sure they are happy( as I am sure you do).
Once you do that, it’s time to ask for the testament. When it comes to Yelp, Google Places,
and even Trulia/Zillow, you want them to leave the review directly on the website. You can’t
manually add reviews; the only solution is to get the end user to leave the review on the
platform for you.
To help you out, I’ll write you scripts you can just
paste into an email to your clients (kind of like how
we did at the hotel)
