2009 Exposure Engine:(New
E-Flyer, Smart Phone Tour & Local Portal Submission) What good is getting a virtual tour
from anyone if it is not seen by the largest
audience possible? A Big reason home sellers use a
listing agent to sell their home is to get that
maximum exposure only a listing agent can bring to
the table.
Our virtual tour and listing
exposure is so far ahead of our competition that you
will be amazed at the traffic you’re getting when
your weekly hit reports come in. We even send
hot leads your way as your listings generate
questions and comments from interested parties!!
The Exposure
Engine allows real estate agents and local business
owners to do what they do best and that is list
homes, sell homes, and conduct everyday business
while not getting their hands dirty with the online
promotion of their listings and products. That's
where we come in.
The Exposure Engine creates many back links to
the virtual tour. In the end, this means that
our virtual tours start building natural rank on
Realtor® name, and listing address. That’s
right…when you Google any of our customer names or
the addresses of their listings, you are more than
likely to see their virtual tours popping up
organically in the search engine results pages.
Your listing
& tour will appear on Craigslist, Googlebase, Trulia, Zillow,
YouTube, AOL Video,
FaceBook, Google Video, Oodle, Lycos, Local, Hot Pads, Vast,
Properazzi, Dot Homes and more! Listings
pushed to our exposure engine receive on average 40% MORE
viewings than those that are not. We even keep your
listing refreshed and updated until your listing is
sold!
Furthermore our interactive virtual tours are pumped
directly into the social bookmarking sites!!
That's right, now you can bookmark your virtual tour to
Digg, Delicious, Furl, FaceBook, FriendFeed,
MySpace, BackFlip, LinkedIn, Reddit, Twitter,
StumbleUpon, Technorati, Mixx and Bebo with just
the click of a button directly off of your virtual
tour!!!
We also
has direct access to the PicturePath™
distribution portal through Realtor.com which puts
your listings onto 83 additional national portal
sites. You WILL get more viewings when you use our
exposure engine and PicturePath portal than you
would if you simply added listings into the MLS and
company site alone.
We're not done yet because our new 2009 Exposure
Engine is now including our E-Flyer and Smart
Phone Tour. The E-Flyer is an HTML email-ready
flyer that our customers can easily send out to
prospects anytime they wish. You can preview a
sample E-Flyer
HERE.
The new Smart
Phone tour allows real estate agents and local
business owners to carry with them at all times
their virtual tour on their cell phones for
an on-demand preview. See our new Smart Phone tour
HERE.
Finally...and saving the very best for last, we are
proud to introduce our all new local Northern
Michigan real estate and virtual tour portal,
www.TourGrandTraverse.com. Every new virtual
tour completed by BlueLaVaMedia gets published to
our local Blog portal which allows home shoppers,
locals and literally any internet visitor to preview
our entire virtual tour inventory with the click of
a mouse!
If blogging
each and every one of our virtual tours was not
enough we even allow visitors to our blog to take
advantage of our new
Northern Michigan Virtual Tour Feed
which will automatically email every new
virtual tour posting.
BlueLaVaMedia
is very pleased to announce our all new virtual home
staging product. We will take any unfurnished room
and stage it to your taste and style for only
$60.00. You're able to choose the furniture from our
online furniture library below. Ordering virtual
staging for one of your properties can be done by
giving us a call by clicking on the "Buy Now" button
below.
Home staging is frequently employed by homeowners
and real estate agents to help show properties to
their best advantage. We all know that a staged home
shows better than an empty home. As wonderful as
traditional home staging is there are some
drawbacks.
This is where virtual home staging really shines.
Virtual home staging is the process of taking
digital photos of empty rooms and inserting digital
furniture, window treatments, and other decorations.
The attributes of each property are enhanced by the
staging, rather than showcasing the taste of the
homeowner. Virtual home staging costs a fraction of
a physical staging and is a great tool to help
showcase the home to prospective buyers. Most people
looking for a home search the internet first and
having a beautifully decorated home captures the
interest of buyers and motivates them to schedule a
showing with a real estate agent. Photos of empty
homes are not as impressive as a staged home and may
not help a potential buyer make an emotional
connection to the property. Start virtually staging
your vacant homes today!

Website & FREE Agent Listing Gallery Pages:
Now SEO Enhanced
With the
purchase of your very first BlueLaVaMedia virtual
tour we will create for you an online gallery that
will display ALL of your virtual tour listings that
you carry with us. When your home sells we
even mark those properties as sold. You can
easily
link your virtual tour gallery onto your website
so visitors can view all of your virtual tour
listings in one easy-to-find location.
Our new gallery
pages are now Search Engine Optimized. This
is a great opportunity for you to promote yourself,
so take advantage of it! Your virtual tour gallery
will also display a short welcome message that best
describes you, your unique offerings and
credentials.
This is a great SEO tool for you to promote
yourself as a source of real estate information in
your town. And for a mere $20.00, we are also able
to register you a custom domain name that

page!
Finally you
will be happy to know that the BlueLaVaMedia Social
Ignition functionality has now also been added to

allowing your gallery to be easily bookmarked in the
major social networking sites.
Real estate agents need them and
home sellers will love you for them! Hit statistic
reports show not only where virtual tour views are
coming from but they also display which scenes from
within the 360 tours are being viewed the most. The
BlueLaVaMedia traffic reporting system will tell you
where your precious marketing dollars are best
spent. Most importantly, the BlueLaVaMedia traffic
reports will automatically be sent out to you once a
week for your review. Can your virtual tour offer
you that?
80% of buyers
use the internet to search for a home. In addition,
71% of all home buyers mentioned the yard sign as an
important source of information. By using a
property specific Website to showcase your listing’s
virtual tour, the buyer gets exactly what they were
looking for; rich, detailed, images and information
about the seller’s property instantly and without
digging for it.
BlueLaVaMedia
has taken the concept of the single property website
to the next level with the addition of the PanoRider™.
If you are looking to add a little "pizzazz" or
"bling" to a real estate listing sign or if you are
looking for a way to draw more people to your single
property website you can now do that with our all
new head-turning PanoRider!
On average 49% more leads were produced with the
combined use of a virtual tour, PanoRider, and
single property website. Our PanoRiders are an easy
and affordable way to market yourself and your
listing both on and off-line!
Each PanoRider advertises the single property
website URL with a high quality panorama. With our
virtual tour traffic reports you will quickly see
that a single property website and a PanoRider will
account for about 45% of the hits on your virtual
tours. You can even shorten your newspaper ads down
and capture immediate leads on your website by using
the single property website address in all of your
print ads. This tool is something every real estate
agent should be implementing to keep in stride with
the latest online property strategies. Turn street
traffic into web traffic today. Can your virtual
tour do that?
The concept is simple; give home sellers a gift they
will keep forever and therefore send you more
referrals in the future. For each tour that we
create for you, we will program, burn and snail mail
a CD sales presentation thank you gift. When placed
into any CD or DVD ROM drive the presentation will
begin. Your photo, contact information, a thank you
message and a link to the virtual tour are displayed
all on your behalf and at no extra cost to you.

Floor plans allow home buyers to even more easily
visualize the design of the property. Both our
2D and 3D floor plans are created by using original
blue prints and if the home has already been built
with just a quick visit to the home we can have all
of the data that we need to create professional
quality plans at an exceptional value.
BlueLaVa Media
just made 2D floor plans even more informative and
compelling. We combine the floor plan with
beautiful photographs of your home which brings
properties to life and helps viewers visualize them
more accurately.
When the user places the mouse over a camera icon, a
small photograph appears over the plan, illustrating
the room pictured. By clicking on an image the
photograph can then be expanded to full-screen size.
Viewers can also watch a full 'slide show' of all
the photographs of the property.
2D Floor Plan Sample With
Photos:
The
BlueLaVaMedia 2D plans clearly displays the layout
of a property but our 3D plans go even further by
adding stock furniture and transforming your floor
plan into three dimensions. Three-dimensional floor
plans are powerful and innovative tools both on the
web and in printed form. Your three-dimensional
floor plan can be shown with or without furniture –
whichever you prefer.
