5 Quick Tips for Real Estate Website SEO:
SEO simply defined is: Search Engine Optimization, or rather, the process of improving the volume or quality of traffic to a web site from search engines via “natural” (“organic” or “algorithmic”) search results. Typically, the earlier a site appears in the search results list, the more visitors it will receive from the search engine. SEO may target different kinds of search, including image search, local search, and industry-specific vertical search engines. This gives a web site web presence.
The more presence or traffic that one’s website gets on the internet has a direct effect on the number of leads or clients that a website attracts – simply stated, understanding SEO has a direct impact on your bottom line. With this said here are 5 quick tips on how to better your website’s SEO.
Tip 1 – Become a Student and Commit yourself to the process : Overnight SEO is a myth, SEO is not a one time event but a process.

Getting a Perfectly Moist Turkey This Holiday Season…
Use a brine! Take some time the night before Thanksgiving to do this. I’ve used this recipe for many years and the end result; perfect turkey. 
So here you go!
Turkey Brine Recipe:
This recipe makes enough brine for a 10-18 pound turkey
Prep Time: 5 Min | Cook Time: 15 Min | Ready In: 8 Hrs 20 Min
Ingredients
- 1 gallon vegetable broth
- 1 cup sea salt
- 1 tablespoon crushed dried rosemary
- 1 tablespoon dried sage
- 1 tablespoon dried thyme
- 1 tablespoon dried savory
- 1 gallon ice water
Directions
- In a large stock pot, combine the vegetable broth, sea salt, rosemary, sage, thyme, and savory. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently to be sure salt is dissolved. Remove from heat, and let cool to room temperature.
- When the broth mixture is cool, pour it into a clean 5 gallon bucket. Stir in the ice water.
- Wash and dry your turkey. Make sure you have removed the innards. Place the turkey, breast down, into the brine. Make sure that the cavity gets filled. Place the bucket in the refrigerator overnight.
- Remove the turkey carefully draining off the excess brine and pat dry. Discard excess brine.
- Cook the turkey as desired reserving the drippings for gravy. Keep in mind that brined turkeys cook 20 to 30 minutes faster so watch the temperature gauge.
Here is a chart for roasting times on stuffed and unstuffed turkeys. Again, keeping in mind that your brined turkey will cook 20-30 minutes faster:
| Approximate Roasting Times for Stuffed Turkey | |
| Turkey Weight | Hours |
| 6 to 8 pounds | 3 to 3-1/2 hours |
| 8 to 12 pounds | 3-1/2 to 4-1/2 hours |
| 12 to 16 pounds | 4-1/2 to 5-1/2 hours |
| 16 to 20 pounds | 5-1/2 to 6 hours |
| 20 to 24 pounds | 6 to 6-1/2 hours |
| Approximate Roasting Times for Unstuffed Turkey | |
| Turkey Weight | Hours |
| 6 to 8 pounds | 2-1/2 to 3 hours |
| 8 to 12 pounds | 3 to 4 hours |
| 12 to 16 pounds | 4 to 5 hours |
| 16 to 20 pounds | 5 to 5-1/2 hours |
| 20 to 24 pounds | 5-1/2 to 6 hours |
