Minneapolis REALTOR® website ranks for thousands of real estate keywords.

All of us want to rank high in the search engine results pages (SERPS) for big keyword phrases. However, REALTORS will limit their keyword reach to a handful of obvious phrases, i.e. "Los Angeles Real Estate, Minneapolis homes" etc. Why rank for only a handful of keyword phrases when you can rank for hundreds or thousands of terms that people will really use to find your site?
My own Minneapolis real estate site at http://RealEstateTwinCities.NET ranks at or near the top of page one of Google for a large number of major real estate keywords, i.e:
- Minneapolis MN homes
- Minneapolis MN real estate
- Twin Cities townhomes
- Twin Cities real estate
- Minnesota lakeshore foreclosures

Really dumb grammar mistakes. (Part 1)
I would like to preface this article by saying that REALTORS who make grammar mistakes are not necessarily dumb. If you are writing copy for your real estate website, you can bend the rules under the cover of “artistic license.”
Are you in love with your own real estate website?
Well, you shouldn’t be. After all, no one else is in love with your website. I know your visitors certainly are not.
Don’t worry. I’m sure no one is in love with my own real estate website either.
Of course, if your real estate website is actually generating business, then it might be OK for you to be in love with it.

WordPress Web Development for Realtors®.
Most real estate websites are designed for the sole purpose of attracting only the REALTORS who will buy the sites; they do little to garner favor with search engines. If the search engines won't find those sites, potential customers won't either! Put your site on a platform used by Fortune 500 companies.
