Here are 7 easy steps to get your real estate website to rank high in local search results.

1. Add your City and State to the end of your html title tags.
2. Submit your Business to Google's Local Business Center.
3. Join the Better Business Bureau + sign up for thir online program.
4. Try and submit your website to relevant City and State Governmental Resources.
5. Get a link from your local Chamber of Commerce.
6. Try and link your site to all your local library's websites.
7. Develop business relationships with non-competing businesses in the same field. Leverage these relationships online and off, by recommending each other via links and distributing each other's business cards.

People in smaller cities with less competition should be able to achieve top results by only doing steps 1 and 2. All 7 steps are highly suggested for people in large cities with lots of competition.
