    Default Search Terms for Real Estate

    In your experience, what are the top key phrases that people use when searching for a real estate agent?

    For example:

    Realtor in CITY
    Homes for sale in CITY
    Buy a home in CITY

    Default Open ended

    That's kind of an open ended question,

    I personally believe the best key phrases are regionally specific. If you just you key phrases like "house for sale" you not going to get anywhere in the rankings.

    First search some traffic volume with google tools.

    Just use https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal

    You will find out exactly how many searches there are a month on Google. Just type in different variations and it will give you a list of searches and synonymous searches. The only thing that bugs me is they don't allow you to actually geo target the amount of searches.

    I think as long as the phrase has your keywords on it,it will generate traffic for your site.

    Google External Keyword tool can allow you to search the local search volume of a keyword. So if you want to only focus targeting in US, you can set the settings in "Results are tailored to English, United States"

    Default It is not just the term

    You have to gauge how much competition you have for the term. The obvious ones are likely to be highly competitive. Consider adding another term to some of the more common phrases, so "CITY real estate" becomes "CITY real estate agent" or "homes for sale" turns into "single family homes for sale".

    In my point of views people are mostly searching for real estate agents and in terms of property they mostly search for property and real estate portals..
