How to Organically Rank Your Real Estate Brand with Content Marketing

A full 100 percent of homebuyers use the internet when searching for a home, according to the most recent survey from America’s National Association of Realtors (NAC).  It’s clear that establishing your brand online as a central player is no longer a secondary measure. For real estate, digital marketing is absolutely fundamental to success.

Technology plays a significant role in the buying and selling of homes, with 59 percent of people using a smartphone or tablet as a frequent source of home search information.

There are many ways you can bring visitors to your website, from planning content and blog strategy ideas to creating SEO-friendly web content, captivating blog posts and eye-catching landing pages. It all begins with understanding your audience and drilling down on what it is they’re searching for.

Here are some key tips on how to get your brand to rank organically, with effective real estate content marketing.

Get online

Leading real estate brands now look to online platforms to generate significant leads. The likes of rightmove.co.uk  and zoopla.co.uk attract and engage homebuyers, but beyond external platforms, having your website is essential. According to the 2024 NAR Member Profile, 74 percent of realtors have their website. This enables you to connect with your audience, create quality real estate web content and gives you a base to centre your marketing efforts. It’s also extremely cost-effective, offering endless marketing and lead-generation opportunities.

Include property listings, a property valuation tool and integrate a map feature that allows users to conduct better searches. All this improves the user experience. But you should also create high-quality real estate blog content to showcase your expertise, authoritativeness and trustworthiness, while driving your company’s search ranking. 

Know your target audience

An effective content strategy involves planning, creating, publishing and managing content, from blog posts to social media videos, to build a connection between your brand and your target audience. Shape your content strategy around the demographic you’re targeting. For instance, if your audience consists of first-time buyers, they might be searching for tips on moving or deep dives on the home-buying process. 

Investors, on the other hand, might be more inclined to research housing trends or market analysis. Spotlights on luxury properties might appeal to more affluent buyers, whereas budgeting advice might appeal to younger audiences looking to get on the housing ladder.

The likes of Semrush and Google Keyword Planner can help you find exactly what your potential customers are searching for, as well as their demographic and location, giving you a better idea of how to hone your real estate web content. For example, if people are searching for ‘top school in Edmonton’, you can incorporate this into your real estate property descriptions.
