      <description><![CDATA[<p>Over the last few months we have been working closely with Remoov to develop a <a href="/digital-conversion/">conversion optimisation</a> and <a href="/digital-marketing/">internet marketing strategy</a> for their website, <a href="http://www.remoov.com.au" class="external">remoov.com.au</a>.</p><p>Remoov offer a new and exciting product for people looking to sell their homes, but trying to avoid the hefty fees and commissions charged by traditional real estate agents. The attractive solutions offered by Remoov is that they are licensed real estate agents – but they don’t charge any commission, just one flat fee of up to $4900.</p><p>We believe that Remoov offers a great alternative to the private house sale and for sale by owner market, so we embarked on a strategy which started with keyword research and studying the metrics of the existing site. We then optimised all of the website copy in line with the research, as well as developing optimised landing pages, changing the layout of the home page and creating a Adwords campaign to help drive traffic to the site. </p><p>Already the site is showing a daily increase in unique visitors and we’re sure the strategy will have a positive outcome for Remoov. </p>]]></description>
