Thread: chrisfarrugia.com - Naples Real Estate

Greetings,

I created my website at http://www.chrisfarrugia.com and would love for someone to review it. I am getting about 2,000 - 2,500 unique visitors per month but I'm not getting many leads. I would LOVE for you to give me suggestions as to how I could make my website really get some leads here. I just can't seem to figure out how I'm not capturing them.

Just a notes on my limitations. I can't use an IDX feed per my brokerage's rules. I have to add our company's listings to my site manually. It's easy, but for them to do a property search, the visitors have to go to an external link.

If you have any suggestions as to how I can improve my site, PLEASE feel free to let me know! My goal in making the site was to of course get some leads. I get on average only a lead or two a month with 2,500 unique visitors.

Thanks!

Please, someone must have a suggestion. I'm really looking to improve this site! Right now I have 2,470 unique visitors for January. I'm looking to do whatever I can to turn those visits into leads!

Chris, I have the exact issue - I get some help like make your fonts darker and so on... our numbers are similar - yet very small amout of call to action -I am looking int things to help get that done... wish a few of those with great lead generating web sites would share with us.... I hate recreating the wheel....

I was thinking about adding a LIve Help link where the user can click and chat online with me. There are so many software packages out there that do it so I don't think it would be tough to integrate. However, I'm not sure what else I could do.

although I think that is a super cool idea - how do you maintain it - with real estate you never know when you are sitting in front of a computer or in a driveway with clients....

I am visiting others sites and clicking through - looking through the eyes of a client - what would make me click or submit my info..... it is a tough thing - I actually just called 3 people and asked them to do the same with my website and tell me what would make them click or submit a request.

Keep me posted as to what you try, ideas and what works and for that matter doesnt.

Chris not that this will bring you leads but your featured page seems to go on forever and a day....

Chris,

I'm not a web pro by any means but I glanced at your site real quick, looks good.

I first tried to go to 'property search', seemed like there were a lot of steps, and then wouldn't let me search as seems ALL fields are *required.
This killed it for me right there, I wanted to search property, not write an essay - moved on....you may lose a lot people right there...???

However your Featured listings came right up and looked great...

Also interesting story about the real estate scams re: deposit checks
