I am selling an ulster county real estate website (UlsterCountyLiving.com) that has achieved top 10 ranking for the #1 keyword term in the Ulster County real estate market. In addition, the site has also ranked well for several supporting keywords in the Ulster and as a result is currently pulling about 50-60 leads per month. Only being live since October 08, the site ranks amazingly well despite it being in its infancy. As the site ages (along with the links that have been built to point to it) it will continue to improve, increasing both traffic and lead conversion. Currently, the site competes for position with some of the top companies in the Ulster County Real Estate market.

If you are interested in using UlsterCountyLiving.com as an additional lead source / marketing tool, let me know. I am open to discussing different options that may include support from me on an ongoing basis. The website could also be used by a top agent or team in your company propelling them into a position where they would be the only agent/team level website that exists in the top 10 in Google. It is a very good opportunity.

A few things about the site:

  1. Currently in the top 10 in Google for the term Ulster County Real Estate and several other top terms in the Ulster County Market.
  2. Converting traffic to leads at about 5%
  3. Several customizations including a Blog, Quick Search on the homepage, interactive Ulster County Map Search, Drip Campaigns and many others.
  4. Upgraded Lead Management System
  5. Tons of SEO Optimized content

A few bonuses that come with the site:

Comprised of the Town and Village of New Paltz as well as the North and South Ohioville hamlets, New Paltz is the home of the State University of New York (SUNY) at New Paltz. Originally settled by French Protestants near the Wallkill River, New Paltz’s Huguenot Street is the oldest street in America. This National Historic Landmark has seven stone houses and a fully restored 18th century church all lovingly preserved by the Huguenot Historical Society. New Paltz is indeed a melting pot with diverse communities of Italian, Dutch, German, English and Latino citizens.

Mohonk Mountain House, located just outside of town, is a glorious 251-room Victorian resort hotel that was built in 1861. Situated on over 2,000 acres of lush green forest, this popular lakeside attraction includes gardens, hiking trails and it’s very own 9-hole golf course. The nearby Mohonk Preserve with over 1,000 technical rock climbing routes along the Shawangunk Mountain Ridge was named “one of the Earth’s last great places” by The Nature Conservancy and sees hundreds of thousands of visitors each year. In early August, New Paltz’s Ulster County Fairgrounds hosts its ever-popular annual fair and each Memorial Day and Labor Day it hosts the Woodstock-New Paltz Art and Crafts Fair where over 300 craftsman and artists present their work to thousands of visitors.

At the heart of the downtown business district are restaurants, shops and galleries and the character of SUNY New Paltz is apparent throughout the area, offering both residents and visitors an exciting and welcoming environment.
