Looking for hot buyers? Check out these stats!
How hot is the real estate section of Boston.com, the online counterpart to The Boston Globe? A recent email sent to online advertisers reported these stunning statistics:
"Boston.com is proud to announce that in March 2005, traffic to our Real Estate section surpassed 7 million pageviews for the first time in history... with more than 1 million homes-for-sale searches conducted that same month..."
With traffic like that and a starting price of just $69 for a two week ad, The Real Estate Cafe recommends that anyone selling "for sale by owner" should include Boston.com in their marketing mix (and it's not because we are pleased to be a long-time advertiser on their open house search page.)
