A real estate website should be a source of daily business. Deciding which features a real estate website should have can take weeks or months to decide. In this article I reveal 5 keys that every real estate website should have.Having a real estate website used to be a luxury. Only agents that had deep pockets could afford these websites.

In other words these 5 keys are necessary when you are going to use free traffic methods to generate real estate leads.

If you can easily update your real estate website it makes it easy for you or someone you hire to put new fresh content.2.Your website shows up on your Facebook account. My websites are designed to show up on my Facebook account. I get leads from my website from people viewing it on Facebook. Integrating your website with a professional business presence on Facebook will generate more leads for you in the short and long term.3.Content is added weekly or daily to your real estate website. Google, Facebook, and your clients are always looking for something new. There is always something new happening in real estate. Your real estate website needs to let them know what is happening. It may be an increase in inventory, a new listing (whether or not its yours), or just your opinion of the real estate market.4.Twitter is your real estate websites friend. Twitter can be used for more than just short updates. You can inform your Twitter followers of the latest real estate news via connecting your website and Twitter.5.Your Real Estate Website Is Easy to Find.
