@Scott Costello sure. I do not use Fiverr for backlinks. I use them for mainly design aspects and some SEO but not all. Mainly for Keyword generations. But mainly for those who are on a budget for a logo and design. 

I have learned that a lot of the ones oversea's blow out a lot of things in another country. Does not help at all if you are trying to buy and sell in say, Atlanta. 

Hope that helps.

Hello there,

I saw the thread and thought I would put my 2 cents in. As a web designer that is going into Real Estate Investing, everything you need, you are on the right path with. There are some great tricks to the trade.

Mine is a work in progress right now. Its in Wordpress. I am actually not intending to pitch but still build. So here are some great tricks. 

1) If you use a professional developer, make sure its in America. Overseas have no idea what "wholesaling" even means. 

2)Make sure you purchase a theme. Themeforest.com is the best place to find Real Estate theme. Mine will have the properties I have to offer on them. That way I'm not fielding a ton of calls from buyers wanting the list. 

3) Go through Godaddy and if you are developing in Wordpress, make sure you purchase WORDPRESS HOSTING. Right now you can start for less than 50 a year. Or $3.00 a month. 

4) The trick of all trades, Fiverr.com. I use this for all of my SEO stuff. Once a month, 5 bucks and its Keyword Heaven. 

5) Make sure you have a landing/Capture page. This is an inbound marketing trick. Make sure there is something that is front and center on your page for them to put their information in AND that your phone number is on the top part of your page. 

6) MAKE SURE IT IS A MOBILE RESPONSIVE THEME. This is VITAL today. Over 60% of people who see stuff online or make a call, do it on their mobile phones. If they cant see the site, you just lost a prospect. 

I am sure there are some additions but I have been on 3 sites all day and im brain dead. If yall need help with sites, i do investor sites for $350.00 and that includes 1 year of SEO. 

Hope that helps and good lucks. :)

Hello all. I am mainly looking for those interested in new construction. There are a couple on the market I am analyzing at the moment. I am however working with private land owners to build Veterans and Active Duty, off post housing.
