Ok, ok, I confess, I absolutely hate the term “guru”.

I read a blog post about me today somewhere online that proclaimed “If Brian Rodgers is such a Real Estate Guru” why is he not number one for several terms in his real estate market?

Further, if Brian Rodgers is a real estate Guru and not ranking number one for certain search terms in his market, brian Rodgers shouldn’t be teaching others search engine optimization.

I’m not sure which search term we are talking about exactly, but for pretty much the largest search term in my market on Google “Hutchinson Kansas Real Estate” I have sites as of this writing at # 2, #7 and #8. And that is for the largest search terms in my market, I am #1 and dominate a lot of pages for so many keywords in my market it would be impossible to list.

It’s true I am not number one “today” for my main search term, but I am some days. But today, I own 30% of the top page of Google, again for my main search term “Hutchinson Kansas Real Estate”

Think about that? 30% of the first page of google for arguably the most sought after search term in your market, who would not kill for that?

So, I do know what i am doing.

However, to set the record straight, I, Brian Rodgers DO NOT teach SEO, I do NOT sell any SEO courses, books, DVD’s, etc. I just like doing it. I know a lot of SEO geniuses and I am certainly not one of them, but I am pretty darn good at it:) I DO NOT consider myself a Guru by any strectch of the imagination.

Those that know me and are a part of my mastermind group over at Busy Agent Pro know that I am a real estate professional, period. I love all aspects of the business and I enjoy working with other real estate professionals that share the same views and passions as me. I do own BAP, but I like to think i am just one of the members of the mastermind and not the guru, leader or whatever you want to call it.

I was surfing online today and I found this posted on a blog out there:

East Tucson AZ Real Estate – Buyer’s Opportunity of a Lifetime

The East Tucson AZ Real Estate market has certainly seen better times. Because of the current condition of our economy, there are, of course many homeowners struggling just to stay above water. However, one of my mentors once told me something and it made a lot of sense to me. He said, “In Every Adversity Lies a Seed of Equal or Greater Benefit”. Well, I took that to heart. And what I see in the East Tucson AZ Real Estate market is a huge number of available properties at very discounted prices. Now to me that signals a buying opportunity, especially when I consider the fact that when I compare the prices that these properties are selling for, I have to go back to the early 2000’s.

Also, when you consider current interest rates being at all time lows, you’re probably not going to see another opportunity like this with money being this cheap in quite some time (if you ever do). The new legislation targeted towards first-time home owners is another incentive to motivate potential home buyers to get off the fence. Basically, our government is providing up to an $8000.00 incentive to purchase their American Dream.

Also, according to the National Association of Home Builders, in addition to the tax credit, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 has several other provisions that will benefit home buyers and the housing market. The legislation will also:

a) Allow state housing finance agencies to help buyers at closing by advancing the credit as a loan using proceeds from tax-exempt bonds.

b) Will help home buyers in high-cost markets by extending the FHA, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac loan limit of $729,750 through the end of 2009.

So, as I have coined in one of my recent blog posts, in my humble opinion, “we’re in the midst of “The Perfect Storm” for buying East Tucson AZ Real Estate.

One of the main areas of the real estate marketing business that I have been teaching now for almost 14 years is the essential need to set up an infrastructure in your business for long term success. A lot of people have ignored this advice over the years because their market was so hot that they didn’t feel as if they really needed to do anything I was telling them and they would continue to make money had over fist.

Well, sadly, a lot of those people are now out of the business or at least scratching their heads wandering “What the Hell Happened”. Most put 100% of the blame on the market shift. Not me, i put 100% blame right square on the shoulders of those who chose to ignore how to properly build their businesses.

But, the good news is that it is never to late to start building your infrastructure properly. I developed a very unique tool in about 2003 that largely automated the business building process for real estate agents called BusyAgentPro, BAP for short. BAP combines all the tools you need to build a solid infrastructure starting right now.

In addition to building a solid long term infrastructure, BAP has a built in real estate websites and Publishing System that will also help you generate short term business while you are getting your infrastructure into place. in fact, using noting but the BAP Publishing system i was able to achieve a #4 ranking in Google in less than two weeks for my main keywords. Before BAP it took me years to get these results.

Ok, I have just went over my analytics this morning for the new BAP Blogs. There seems to be a trend happening which involves YouTube videos embedded into the BAP Blog posts.

Google is indexing the posts with videos slightly faster than those without the YouTube videos. This tells me we need to try to embed a few YouTube videos every few posts into the system for right now.

It isn’t critical as all of the BAP blog posts are being indexed very quickly but it might be worth a shot and we have made it so simple to embed videos into a post.

To start using the real estate websites and publishing system over at Busyagentpro.com is absolutely free so get over there today.

I have been receiving a lot of calls the past few months from agents and mortgage brokers asking me what they can do right now to start closing deals tomorrow. Unfortunately, I always have to say the same thing and that is that there is no magic pill I can just give them that will take care of all of there worries. Truth be told, a lot of these same people a while back really weren’t interested in developing a solid lead generation system because they were too comfortable. yep, they were happy with the way things were going and didn’t have any desire to change anything so they just ignored the fact that only a solid lead generation marketing system will stand the test of time regardless of the economy.

So what can be done today? Well, the first thing i would do is run as fast as you can over to busyagentpro.com and sign up for a Platinum account over there. The Platinum account although it has many wonderful things includes something that is amazing, it’s called the BAP Publishing System. With this system you can target some very good keywords in your market online and start generating leads in just a week or two, it is amazing.

Secondly, sit down and create a business and marketing plan. If you started driving and had no idea where you were going, guess what, you are never going to get there. be honest with yourself. If you need help developing a plan check out brianrodgers.com for a lot of tips and examples.

Again, here are the two things to do, go over to the Real Estate Websites and Publishing System at busyagentpro.com and visit real estate coach Brian Rodgers.

After just a few weeks testing The BusyAgentpro.com Real Estate Websites and Publishing System vs. ActiveRain just for blogging and SEO results alone, I was astounded. listen below for exactly what I did. I was able to achieve a first page Google listing at # 8 as well as a #11 within 2 weeks of using the BAP System. After 6 months using ActiveRain I was only able to achieve a 2nd page listing that disappeared very quickly. I blogged 3 times a week using both systems. Listen in below.
