Today’s real estate market is a very tough one. And it is not just people who are trying to buy or sell a house that are suffering from this depressed market either. Those who make their living in the real estate industry are suffering too. The Realtors are starving! Quite a few of my colleagues have been either forced to take on extra jobs or have been completely forced out of the business.

 

That is why as a Realtor you need to take advantage of and make the most of any marketing opportunities that arise. This is particularly true when those marketing opportunities are free. And this is where social networking comes in. The big three social networking sites that Realtors can exploit in my opinion are Facebook, Twitter and MySpace.

 

Now before you shake your head and say “I’m too old to be on MySpace” maybe you should check to see if your competition already is. You can post your opinions as advice on these web sites. You can even place links to your own website in these blog type posts (links to your website is what determines the popularity of your web site in the eyes of search engines. And doing this is all quick, easy and best of all free.

    Both Twitter and My Space are good places to promote your business. Make sure that there is also some great information when readers click on the link back to your website. It’s possible to get new clients this way.
