Austin didn’t change much for many years but look at it now. It was a slow start but Austin is spreading in every direction. If you look to the west there are homes high up in the hills and if you look east there are homes in the cotton fields. To the north is Pflugerville and Round Rock, Georgetown, barely a gap in between. To the south is Buda and Kyle, barely a gap here either. If you look downtown, not only are there high rise office buildings but condos and offices going up as well. There are toll roads going from north to south and west to east, with proposals for more. There will be a commuter rail from Leander to downtown with more coming.

 

We were talking in the office about the rock in Round Rock, when someone asked if there really was a round rock there. Yes, there is, in the creek, you used to be able to see it from I 35. I was driving north on Bagdad Road in Leander, when someone who has lived here many years told me this was the old turkey trail from Liberty Hill. If you look at ads for homes or apartments around South Congress, they say in the SOCO area. Bergstrom is no longer a military air force base but is Austin Bergstrom International Airport. Mueller Airport is now private real estate, homes, a hospital, shopping, and much more. 

 

Hutto is the fastest growing city in the state of Texas and will continue to grow at an astronomical rate. To give the 17,000 residents the much needed shopping, entertainment and hotels, the city has decided to give developer incentives worth approximately $52 million dollars for a mixed use development on 466 acres located along Texas Toll road 130. This incentive is the largest monies given to a developer in the history of Hutto.  Hutto once was a one horse, one stop light town.  Now, it is thriving with a new Lowes, Home Depot, hotel, many restaurants and more. 

Coming soon this new development called The Crossing of Carmel Creek will break ground.  It is estimated that it will generate over $110 million in sales tax revenue and as much as $30 million in hotel occupancy revenue all beginning in 2010. With Williamson County, TX being one of the fastest growing counties in the US, you can see that there is something for everyone.  Whether you are a first time homebuyer or a last time or somewhere in between, Williamson County can accommodate your needs. 

Most of the larger towns in this County are easily accessible to major roads and employers. Tons of amenities are available including 3 new hospitals that have just opened or will in the next quarter. Shopping includes:  J C Penney’s, Ikea, Outlet Mall between Round Rock & Georgetown, La Frontera, Sam’s, Super Walmart, Super Targets and more.

We recently signed up for a back link service. It can be quite difficult to tell whether or not it is having a direct effect on our site, but we seem to think it is. We chose to post article links, and a bout a month later we noticed our ranking starting to rise on google. Most of our links point to Austin TX Real Estate

We will start to build information sites for specific areas. These site will optimize better for the area search terms. We hope to offset our monthly marketing budget through affiliate marketing. This project will bolster our back links for our site about Austin Real Estate.

I have been teaching agents at Sky Realty how to optimize there sites on a budget. the first agent to have her site reach Google Page Rank 3, was Myra Zapata Buda TX Real Estate or Kyle TX Real Estate. I just want to take this opportunity to say that she has worked hard for it, deserves it and I know she will only get better.

I manage our paid positions accounts here at our office. I have noticed over the past few weeks that fewer people seem to be coming through the paid positions. We are getting traffic, and it is starting to rise, but for the same web site that traffic seems to coming more naturally. I have no reasoning as to this, but I am ok with it. Our best optimized site is our site about Austin Texas Homes for Sale or our site about Lake Austin TX Real Estate is the one on the rise under a different market.

Embed Real Estate Content
It can be rather difficult to keep content fresh on web sites, especially real estate web site. With a competitive market like Austin TX, it is important to keep websites up to date for both the consumer and the we bots. Using the Embed code in the HTML version of your website editor will allow you show content in such a way. Here is a good site for HTML Help, I know very little code, but a little can go along way. You will find evidence of a little custom code in our site Austin TX Real Estate

We recently signed up with a text message company to deliver listing information to prospective clients. We love this idea from Drive Buy Technology. Our clients are able to view detailed property information from their comfort of their car. This service works in conjunction with our website, so the possibilities are virtually endless in regards to offering information to our clients. We noticed that we are now in contact with customers that would never have called us. In working together with Drive Buy we were able to produce a home search feature for our cell phones. this allows us to offer our clients another tool to help their home search process. Go to our website to search for homes in Austin TX, click on the home search for your cell phone link.
