Hello everyone
I've been designing and coding for over a month now my real estate site and creating a blog from scratch to go along with it and get a nice SEO ranking.
I'm having trouble deciding the scope of my business:
A) should I focus first on my local area (travelling by car I can cover this area in 5 to 7 min travelling at 35 mph... Just to give you an idea of its size ) and then escalate it from there? <-- this area is full of real estate agencies and it's growing a lot (opportunity ). I'm not a real estate agency so I'm not afraid of commoditization, I'm building a brand
Or
B) make it city wide (can get from one end to the other in 25 min doing 65 mph)
I have pretty much no money to invest. So in the beginning I'll be using SEO to attract my first customers.
My domain as it is now is www.housein"mytown".com but I've been hesitating whether I should change it to www.housein"mycity".com to reach more people. (common sense tells me there's more people googling for houses in my city than houses in my local area )
Can you share your thoughts on this?
Thanks I appreciate it.
