Real Estate SEO gets more complicated as the Natural Search results gets more crowded:
You may have missed it, but a few months back Google promised to start mixing their various other search results into their regular search. They call it....Drum Roll.........Universal Search.
Real Estate Video and You Tube, Blogs, News, Images, Local, and Google Base=Google Natural/Organic search results......
48% of All Users Watch or Share Video
Pew Internet and American Life Project says that 48% net users have visited a video-sharing site at least once to watch or post a video. This is an increase over the 33% number in December 2006.
What did the leader of the free world, co founder of the largest search engine, founder of Re/Max, a Presidential Candidate, and yours truly do when we got together up North? Can you guess who is who?*
JibJab has grown by leaps and bounds and is a great example of viral growth as guys like me using their service and sharing it with you.I actually did this for the business and another with my family I am addicted!
http://www.elfyourself.com/ also has this feature. It is operated for free by Office Max.
*George Bush, Sergey Brin,Dave Liniger, Hillary Clinton, Tim O'Keefe
Addition to original post:I made a video on how to create these videos. They are a great idea to add your staff and send out as an ECard.
Do you know those videos that I do? Some of my videos.
Well it is Camtasia and at one time I paid like $300 for a copy. Now they are giving it away. Kind of proves one of my Online Marketing Ten Commandments ( The First Commandment ).

70% of those who use the Internet have broadband. So video is a no brainer.
Pew Internet & American Life Project says 57% of Internet users have watched videos online and most of them share what they find with others -- 19% do so in a typical day. 74% of broadband users who enjoy high-speed connections at both home and work watch or download video online.
Video habits are changing online. I have always thought that Video as a mainline medium is a tough sell. From the filming, editing and then uploading. It is a process that requires some technical skill and patience.
Going viral with real estate marketing is tough without seeming gimmicky or cartoonish.
However, it does work in many cases. Just ask the founders of Hotmail.I guess, you can argue that the Zillow ap went viral when they launched.
Viral Marketing tends to work best in very targeted contexts as this most recent example by the Magician Chris Angel. I love magic and how if you study it, we are taught how easily the mind can be fooled.

"Blogs, Videos, and the Political Season"
Politics has led the new media revolution. And this year is promising already to be cutting edge.
Hillary Clinton does not typically show good numbers across all demographics when making public appearances. She has brilliantly counteracted that by having personal "visits" with her viewers of her website, thusly controlling her appearance. She has a new video about every week for you to watch.
Ironically, it has been the Conservative side of American Politics that has typically dominated new media, with Cable and now the Internet. Many believe John Kerry's demise in 2004 was because of a very strong right wing net base that attacked him on every front, mostly from the web.
Politicians have lived and died by the net so far in this short century. Heck, even journalists have lost their tenure because of "corrections" by bloggers.
And as the right has typically dominated the new channels, it seems to be the left whom have been cutting edge. You will recall that Howard Dean was able to get huge grassroots support thru his blogging efforts in 2004.
Now Hillary is Vblogging. And Obama is attacking back not on TV or Cable. But on You Tube!
I just posted a new video for you to check out.
I discuss a few problems that I see with technology today as it relates to time.
I also give you a great way to to leverage actions you are already taking to create a massive traffic surge.
I usually do not place clients on the front of my blog. But this one gets up for the A+ effort.
