Bad SEO Advice

A big mistake I see many REALTORS making when venturing out in the Social Media realm is to take the advice of well-meaning SEO Experts.    We all want to be found on the net and we all want that competitive edge but sometimes taking that advice can get you into deep trouble.

Top Fatal Mistakes REALTORS Make

Recently I spoke at the Seacoast Board of REALTORS membership meeting and my topic was “top fatal mistakes REALTORS make” and I have to say that one mistake I see often is taking the advice of a SEO expert!  Just because you hired them to build you a website, a blog or maybe even a Facebook business page does not mean you should just do everything they tell you to do.  You need to remember that often the SEO experts, while knowing their stuff,  have no real clue about the rules and regulations we have to abide by and how our industry really works so please use some common sense and evaluate the advice before you jump into it.  Certain things like Fair Housing, Steering, talking about schools, churches and failing to mention your brokerage firm are all violations and can result in getting you into trouble.

Londonderry Realtor Honored with Omega Tau Rho Medallion of Service

New Hampshire Association of Realtors President Monika McGillicuddy was recently inducted into Omega Tau Rho, a 60-year-old fraternity established by the National Association of Realtors to honor exceptional service to the real estate community.

McGillicuddy, a 25-year veteran of the real estate industry and an agent with Prudential Verani in Londonderry, was presented with the Omega Tau Rho Medallion of Service at the final 2010 NHAR board of directors meeting by the organization’s Executive Vice President, Paul Griffin.

“Monika McGillicuddy typifies what it means to be an Omega Tau Rho member,” Griffin said. “She has been a true leader, not only as President during these challenging economic times, but throughout her career as a real estate professional.”

McGillicuddy has served on the association’s board of directors for 15 years, and has been the chair of NHAR’s professional development and legal committees. She is a lifetime member of the NHAR honor society for her continued service. She has been her local board’s president and a three-time Realtor of the Year.

She is also a long-time real estate trainer and program developer throughout New Hampshire, Maine and Vermont, and is considered to be one of the nation’s foremost social media experts in the industry.

“This award is truly an honor, as it marks exemplary dedication and service by a very few select Realtor members to their organizations,” Griffin said. “Nobody deserves it more than Monika.”

Omega Tau Rho was created in 1950, and recipients are considered members for life.
