Best Real Estate Websites Detailed in New Report from the Web Marketing Association

West Simsbury, CT (PRWeb) March 20, 2007 -- www.07webaward.org- The Web Marketing Association, host of leading website awards competition WebAwards, released the Internet Standards Assessment Report (ISAR) to help the real estate industry create more effective and engaging websites.

"As the standard of excellence for websites continues to increase, consumers (and WebAward judges) are increasingly picky about what they consider to be an effective website," said William Rice, president of the Web Marketing Association, Inc. "Real Estate websites often focus too much on listings and not enough on the other additional factors that influence purchasing decisions like community, schools and local offerings. Those who do, are ahead of the curve."

The WebAwards competition judges real estate websites on seven criteria that combined create award-winning websites:
•    Design
•    Innovation
•    Content
•    Technology
•    Interactivity
•    Copywriting
•    Ease of use

Real Estate websites have underperformed the ISAR Index for the past four years. Prior to 2003, their performance has been mixed with a see-saw like over and under performance.

Accoding to the ISAR Study, real estate websites are strongest in content and ease of use while being weakest in innovation. Real estate websites need to focus on providing a total user experience, giving the visitor all information they need to take the next step in the sales cycle whether its requestiong a showing or purchasing.

Leveraging technology, animation and videos would upgrade real estate websites and provide the user with the informaiton he/she craves.

The 2006 WebAward for Best Real Estate Website went to Kinesis Marketing for coldwellbanker.com

Other past winners include:
- 2005 Coldwell Banker Real Estate for www.coldwellbankerpreviews.com
- 2004 The Wall Street Journal for RealEstateJournal.com
- 2003 The Corcoran Group for Corcoran.com
- 2002 Wall Street Journal for RealEstateJournal.com

A complete list of past winners can be found at realestate.webaward.org

Companies and organizations wishing to have their real estate Web site evaluated against the ISAR Index and be considered for a WebAward, which can help boost a Website's credibility and marketing efforts, can learn more at www.07webaward.org.
