The Right Strategy for Estate Agents

You can't beat Rightmove on listings. You don't need to.

The SEO opportunity for estate agents isn't competing with property portals on "houses for sale in [town]". It's ranking for the searches that vendors and landlords make when they're choosing an agent.

Searches like "estate agents in [your area]", "how much is my house worth in [location]", "best letting agent [town]", "sell my house quickly [area]". These are high-intent searches where the person is looking to make a decision; and your website is where they should find that answer.
