There Comes a Time When You Want Your Template Website To Look Like A Pro
Since 2006 when I first launched my target market web site I have used Point 2 Agent as my provider. Although a template provider the things you can do are much better than most template sites. You can even have a blog attached to it on the premium or professional versions and some of the blogs I post on it rank on Google page 1.
As is typical most templates offer you a choice of style with some customization available. For example you can choose a theme but then use hex color codes to make it your own colors. You can add your own graphic to the header and choose from a selection of navigation button styles. So whether you are a beginner or a master you can make your Point 2 Agent site your own.
Very recently I had changed the look of my site with some help and guidance from Katerina Gasset who many of us know and love. You might know of the great success I have had with my site having following Katerina's SEO to the top course. If you are skeptical about her SEO course read my post or her response. Of course email me as well. As a result of her course I have 2 closings on Monday. I am closing with 2 buyers for homes listed at $385,000, a Lake Barrington Shores Condo and for $1,398,000 on a home in South Barrington. Both buyers found me in late February after I had applied the rules of SEO learned in Katerina's SEO Course. My traffic had already doubled.
Katerina had helped me focus on a very niche market of Equestrian but I hope she won't mind to know I have stepped back a little bit and decided that what I really want to do is represent all buyers in Barrington. Sometimes it takes a long time and many changes to really find your niche. Now I have found mind.
There comes a time that you want to have a completely custom look. One that perhaps does not even look like it is a Point 2 site. I had reached that time. My site since January had had 3 changes getting better and better every time. Now I wanted to go pro. Back in 2006 I met a Point 2 Agent approved supplier - BuildRealEstateResults - her site is built using the Point 2 platform. Kathleen Allardyce the owner, did some work for me at that time so I called her up. Visit Kathleen's site where you will see a portfolio of work she has done. I did look at a number of designers before choosing Kathleen but her designs to me were the nicest looking. Now my site is a pro. Feel free to visit and see my new design. Just click the picture to watch my flash header, it is pretty cool.
If you have a Point 2 site and want to go pro call Kathleen, her number is 888-716-2418. I don't derive any benefit, I just want Point 2 clients to know how nice their site can look.

So I have to ask Corinne, what does something like this cost? I may not be quite there yet but this would be good to know. Thanks. The site looks great by the way.
Corrinne - What a great job you did with your website it looks really good. It also sounds like you are seeing good returns on it.
This site looks spiffy, Corinne! You should get a lot of buyer traffic with it. Good luck
