I have been reliably informed that PropertyPal.com is now the biggest property site in Northern Ireland….

I will now (free of charge) reveal the secret to their hugely successful online marketing campaign…

As I was browsing through the code of the web site (as I sometimes do on other web sites because I am nosey like that), I was suddenly hit by the following:-

They were using the following metadata on their web site:-

<meta name="jedi-mind-trick"
content="You will bookmark this site and use it a lot." />

Now it all made sense, this must be why I regularly visit their site to check the value of my 2 bed apartment in Bangor!

If you didn’t configure this properly when you set your web site, then try following the instructions at:-

I have been using this for a month now, and can honestly say, while it is not perfect, it is an absolutely fantastic utility which saves time and effort in setting up new PPC campaigns (and allows you to easily see what is working and what is not working for your competitors, so you don’t have to reinvent the wheel:-)

If you do PPC for a living, and can’t make KeyWordSpy pay for itself many times over, then you are in the wrong job! (It also is fairly useful for SEO).

It is also recommended by Howie Jacobson, so you don’t just have to take my word for it!

*Check out KeyWordSpy here*

(NB – Unless you are a *big* company, you only really need to purchase the ‘research’ option).

If you do try it out, please let me know how you got on…  Thanks.
