5 Essential WordPress Plugins for Real Estate Websites

Do you have a WordPress website for your real estate business? If you do, then you might want to consider installing plugins. 

WordPress plugins have always been useful when it comes to boosting a website’s functionality, performance, and appearance. They give additional features that can benefit your business. You just have to know which plugins to use for achieving specific results.

Here are a few WordPress plugins you should be using for your real estate business. 

 

Akismet

The internet is not an entirely safe place, especially for the owners of real estate businesses. Luckily, this plugin can reduce most of the online risks your real estate website faces. Bots, spammers, viruses, and scammers can harm your website by littering it with spam links. For these threats, the Akismet plugin serves as basic security that prevents the entry and spread of these saboteurs before they damage your website’s performance and functionality. 

 

Contact Form 7

This WordPress plugin helps you manage several contact forms all at once. It also allows you to customize your contact forms and improve how they are used for capturing leads. You can create additional feeds so you can get the information you need from prospects. Contact Form 7 is also great for knowing what property buyers are looking for from the get-go. 

 

Impress Agents

If you’re aiming to increase your real estate company’s online exposure, then you can add a compelling story about your team. With Impress Agents, you can easily create an “about me” page on your real estate website to highlight your team and your office as well. It’s a quick and easy way for potential clients to connect with your company on a more personal level.

 

Social Warfare

When promoting or sharing content online, you will need to know when and where to distribute it. The plugin Social Warfare allows you to promote your website across all social media pages around the world. There’s no complicated installation required. The plugin is also light and responsive so that website visitors can easily share content they find interesting. Sure enough, Social Warfare is what you need to attract more people to your real estate business. 

 

Yoast

Even though WordPress is the most effective platform to use, your real estate website could still be off the radar in terms of searchability. The Yoast plugin has your back on this by optimizing your website’s content to be more SEO-friendly. Whether you’re creating content about home improvement tips or selling listed houses in your area, Yoast can help you make enhancements to your website and make it more searchable to potential clients.   

 

These plugins are integral to the success of your online marketing efforts, but it takes a lot more to build successful real estate websites that convert.
