Digital Marketing for Estate Agents
SEO for estate agents has ONE job: get more valuations booked with vendors and landlords in the postcodes you want. Applicant traffic is easy to buy and worth comparatively little, because the portals already own that demand. The money's on the instruction side, and that's exactly where the search work should point.

Real client results
Every campaign is judged on one number:
The revenue it puts in your account

120-150 leads a month, leading to 5-10 property sales
Estate agency marketing measured on valuations booked and instructions won, not portal traffic or website sessions.
29.98x return on ad spend
£50,000 of Google Ads spend turned into £1.52 million in online sales for an ecommerce client.
+£239,000 a month
A 132% revenue increase year on year for a construction client. SEO up 363%, PPC up 55%.
£160,000 in one month from SEO
SEO revenue up 344% and PPC up 160% year on year for a law firm client. Ask us for the accounts behind any of these.
Compounding growth
What growth looks like once valuations are the number that counts
Fix the measurement around valuations booked first, then scale only the channels producing instructions. One local estate agency client had never run Google Ads before; £25,300 of spend produced £891,000 in sales, around £35 back for every £1! Another client, in ecommerce, turned £50,000 of ad spend into £1.52 million in sales the same way.

FAQ
The questions you actually want answered
Can we compete with the portals in search?
Not for property listings, and honestly, you shouldn't try. You can beat them comfortably on valuation, fee, area advice and agent comparison searches, which is where vendor and landlord instructions actually come from.
How do you make area pages that are not near-duplicates?
Each page needs genuinely different content: local price and demand commentary, schools and transport detail, the property types you actually sell there, and recent examples. If the only difference is the town name, the page won't rank. Simple as that.
Does paid social work for estate agency?
For vendor and landlord acquisition it can work really well, because you can target by postcode and homeowner signals with strong local creative. For applicant demand it's usually poor value against the portals.
How do we measure marketing against fee income?
By tracking valuations booked as the primary conversion, then matching them through to instructions in your CRM. That gives you a cost per valuation and a real conversion rate to make budget decisions against.
Should sales and lettings be marketed the same way?
No. They attract different searches, different urgency and often different decision makers, so campaigns and area pages usually need separating, even when the same team handles both sides of the business.
