Real Estate Websites by Advanced Access
 

Please Vote for the 'Most Impressive Advanced Access Website'!

The Voting Has Started!

Thank you for your contributions to our 3rd annual 'Most Impressive Advanced Access Website' contest. The sites that were nominated are all beautiful examples of some creative things you can do with your Advanced Access website.  

There are eight different categories of Most Impressive Website nominations, with a large selection of websites to choose from.  You can only vote once per category and the vote can not be changed.  The first seven categories are:

Best Homepage - Also known as “curb appeal.”  When you enter the homepage of this site does it WOW you, catch your eye in some way, does it appear colorful and well organized, or is it just plain awesome?

Best Lead Generator - When you are voting for this category, read the comments submitted by the owner, friend, or admirer to find out why they believe it is the 'Best Lead Generator'.  Also, view the website to see how the owner guides their potential clients through their site to find out how they capture visitors, etc. 

Best Use of a Template - Does the site use one of our standard designs, but looks completely revamped?   Is the color, style or the navigational buttons and top graphics simply extraordinary?

Best Use of a THEME - In creating a successful website, it's important to define WHO your audience is. When you visit this site, do you find a repetitive theme throughout the pages within?  Do you know this site is geared specifically toward a certain market segment such as first time homebuyers or boomers?      

Best Use of an AA Feature -  Does the site find a unique use for one of the features offered by Advanced Access?  We consider an AA feature to be any of the sections in the Virtual Office, including slideshows, local partners, favorite links, community links, bulletin board, listings, testimonials, free reports, about page, and more...

Most Original Content -  When you view this website you might be asking yourself, "Who did they hire as a copy writer?"  

Most User Friendly - Do find this website to be incredibly well organized, and you know instantly where you need to go to find what you’re looking for? 

The final category is the 'Most Impressive Advanced Access Website'.  This category contains *all* the websites from the rest of the categories so one website can potentially win for two categories.

This is your chance...

Why not use this opportunity to go beyond your comfort zone…don’t just vote for your 'friend' or for your own website that has been nominated.  Check out ALL of the nominees…it’s in your best interest.  This is your chance to realize the potential of your own website.  The websites that have been nominated for our ‘Most Impressive’ promotion are the ‘crème de la crème,’ and represent those who have created a successful, comprehensive online real estate resource for consumers.  Take a few minutes to browse through the nominees’ websites to discover what our talented clients have created.  The ideas you can acquire while viewing these beautiful sites can help rouse your creativity for your own website.

A very important point to remember that is all these sites are copyrighted. Copying or stealing content from a site that is not yours is a crime. Read some of our past Marketing Tips about this subject.

Take some time to click on each of the nominees’ links and admire the masterpieces that your fellow real estate professionals have created.  And, while you’re at it, be sure to pat yourself on the back for the amazing things you have accomplished.

Congratulations!

If you did not submit your website for nomination this year, take the next few months to devote a few hours a week to spend working on your website. Give us a call at Advanced Access so we can help you take your vision and make it a reality.  We are here Monday - Friday, 7am to 6pm PST to assist you. For more reading pleasure, go to your Support Center and click on the Advanced Access Forums.  A wealth of information is available in our forums from fellow real estate professionals who have taken the time to enhance their website and are incredibly successful at what they do.

If you don't have a vision of what your website could be, or don't want to take the time to talk to Advanced Access about what you can do with the many programs and items available to you, don't forget that we have put together a free resource of Virtual Assistants who can be hired to help you make the MOST of your website.  We have assembled a list of testimonials from happy Advanced Access clients about experienced VA's on our resource list.  After viewing our VA Resource List, you can interview the candidates yourself to determine your best course of action.

Happy Creating!

Cheri Young says:
"Okay - I admit, I worked for the competition and they are great. But, you guys blow the competition out of the weeds with your customer service. There has NEVER been a time where I called CS and they were unfriendly. Just the opposite, extremely friendly, laughed at my stupid jokes, did not make me feel like I was taking up their time, and today was incredible. I asked Aaron to help me with advanced features that I did not know AA offered. He was right on it and completely understood everything I was asking for and did it over the phone. I referred a client to AA after he was pounded on a hard sale thru one of your competitors. I called Tricia and told her the situation, and that I wanted to refer my client to someone. There was never a smooth sales pitch, with an and/or buy now.  Thank you for the high level of professionalism and incredible service. It is a sigh of relief that I don't have to sell websites against your customers!)"

Robert Glover says:
"Brian Curtiss was awesome. Since I do not know squat about a computer - he walked me through the simplest of things and I really improved the look of my web page. The way you can serve me better in the future is to have Brian there whenever I call! Thanks!"

Angela Young says:
"Jeremy could not have done a better job! He was knowledgeable, gave us ideas we had not thought of (and we implemented them!) and was really fun and personable to work with. He took the time to help us with all our questions and did not make us feel stupid. After explaining how each task is accomplished he offered to help us by doing it for us! What service!!! That is hard to find these days!! He is an asset to your company!! We look forward to working with Jeremy again."
