So far i know im good in internet marketing (SEO) and gorrilla marketing online... i also have experience of being the door knocker asking distress homeowners to sell there homes or to do a short sale with a broker before the bank takes over.

What they are offering is an SEO or Search engine optimization.

I've had someone who helped me with web-based SEO issues I was having with a non-real estate business -- they didn't do it on condition of me mentoring them, and it was a couple months later that I did. 

No matter what you do you will not make all members of BP happy.So the goal is to make most of the members happy with strategies that will fit the direction of your company and your growth plans.I belong to other forums as well real estate related and they all operate with different variations.As my friend that owns a technology company says "No matter who you choose for website,seo,etc,etc. they will all have positives and negatives"You have to decide if they positives outweigh the negatives of who you are doing business with.Using his company the positive is we are usually on the cutting edge way ahead of everyone else.The downside is the developers are constantly blazing the trail with new code and running into issues.So when you set trends you can reap huge rewards because you are doing what many are not but there is a lot of trial and error and time in that as well.You will hit a breaking point no matter if you added 20 more features to BP PRO.That is why a poll in my opinion is key to determining a successful price point.To give you an idea the system I use costs 650 a year.I have been using it for almost 4 years.New subscribers pay about 2,000 a year.I am grandfathered in but they have added so many new features that rates have gone up for people coming in.For me I don't care that BP has 100,000 members.What I care about is direct decision makers who can do a deal.If there are 1,000 direct decision makers that is who I want to connect with.People who are trying to make a deal happen to make 5k to now have 10k total assets should have their own forum.Time is valuable and there is only so much in a day.A system that would filter the pretenders from the real deals would be priceless.

It's NOT the medium it's the marketing message.You can take the right copy and message and scale it on multiple mediums and it will pull great.You can put bad to mediocre copy in any medium and it will struggle to pull well.Design of the website doesn't mean what people think.I have seen many websites rich for SEO rake in the leads and they are nothing fancy to look at.Website designers don't know much about driving business and just like to create vanity sites to admire their work.I can't remember but aren't you trying to buy properties for 50 bucks down??

If you will rely on SEO or paid traffic, you may be penalized by the search engines unless you page has quality content.

I also have a very good website that is optimised by a professional SEO company.

It's critical to bring in your own fresh leads and have a 3-4 "investor friendly" agents who will work with you on these unlisted short sales.Get a lead generating real estate website and do some SEO marketing.When you have a short sale prospect it seems to work best to have your agent sit down with them and go over some options:1.

I suggest that you instead of spending money on agents spend on enhancing your marketing to homeowners, either print ads, SEO/PPC/websites, etc.

If you're skilled in web design, you may find a market for bartering some design or SEO advice or marketing help in exchange for some mentoring from site members.
