SEO for property portals
Create landing pages for each city and locality with helpful content, use clean URLs, add structured data to listings, compress images and keep pages fast on mobile. Expired listings should redirect to relevant alternatives instead of returning errors.
Integrations
Connect enquiries to your CRM, send WhatsApp confirmations, sync listings from builders' systems where possible and track every lead source so marketing spend can be measured accurately.
