Targeting Real Estate Intenders Globally

90% of home buyers begin their search for their homes online, so it’s essential that the Sotheby’s International Realty brand’s presence on search engines is strong. Through our evolving strategies, we continue to drive the most relevant home buyers to sothebysrealty.com to maximize the potential for your home to be found quickly on the web. When you perform a search on a search engine, the results are a combination of organic or “natural results” based on information the search engine sees on a website, and “sponsored results,” or paid ads. Our strategy includes both.
