The Real Estate Home Staging School ™ - Asheville, NC

Your Home Staging Career IS Our Business




Home Stagers, when you think about marketing your business, most of the buzz is rightfully about social media marketing and search engine optimization for your home staging web site. There is another area that you need not forget about, your Local Online Presence.



Think about the searches in your hometown. If I want to find a home stager in Asheville, NC, I am going to search locally. Last year it was reported that at least 35% of all searches had keyword content that was local. So if we understand how people search we can use that to our advantage and target local customers more effectively.

Back to my example, if I am looking for a home stager in Asheville NC, I am going to enter maybe Asheville NC Home Stager. So I need to make sure my website pages have these keywords and keyword phrases. This applies to blogs as well.

Have you maximized search engine local listing directories? Are you listed in Google, Yahoo or Bing Local? Learn how to submit your site to Local Guides and increase your ability to target local customers on the web.

The Real Estate Home Staging School ™ will teach you the ins and outs of local online presence and help you develop a marketing campaign before you complete our home staging course. When you complete the home staging course, you are ready with your marketing strategy.
