Virtual Tours Matter!
Hat tip to Mike at the FSBO Blog for pointing out a recent Atlanta Business Chronicle article.
The article points out the record numbers drawn by Google and YouTube, as more and more people watch online videos. Here are some of the facts:
* 77% of American Internet users watch online video.
* October 2008 versus October 2007 saw an increase of 45% in online video viewers.
Taking these things into consideration, it just makes sense to include video in your online real estate advertising. That’s one of the things I love about BuyOwner.com—professional photographers came out to my home and created gorgeous virtual tours of the rooms in my house, and potential buyers could view those videos (complete with voice-over descriptions) anytime they wanted to online.
