For each listing you promote, you select the amount you want to spend on each advertising network, which corresponds to an estimated number of views and clicks, or you can move forward with the recommended budget mix that Homesnap Pro’s experts calculated for your listing.
Homesnap Pro works with various advertising networks to deliver your ad as frequently as possible at the lowest possible cost. The length of the run depends on how quickly your ad generates views and clicks, and therefore reaches the target views/clicks goal that you selected through the budget allocator on the order page. This will result in different run lengths for every listing on each network.
Due to Facebook’s high volume of monthly active users (2+ billion) and the amount of time users spend on the network (they check it 14x a day, on average), Facebook is a strong option for agents who want to improve brand awareness and generate a high volume of leads. It is also an ideal network for direct engagement with potential clients.
With Instagram’s 77+ million U.S. users, ads on this network reach a wide audience, improving brand and listing awareness while generating leads. The social network’s main demographic skews younger, but users are highly active. Beautifully composed photos and engaging videos perform well on Instagram. According to Facebook, running Facebook + Instagram together produces a 15% increase in brand awareness and a 33% increase in leads.
Waze, the wildly popular social navigation app, has more than 90 million active global users. Drivers who use Waze spend more than 7 hours per month on average in the app. Geo-targeted ads on this network show your listings to users at the most relevant moment — when they are driving nearby. This not only improves listing awareness, but increases foot traffic.
Your ad’s delivery frequency will depend on Waze’s algorithm, but incorporates the usual digital advertising factors: bidding strategy, competition from other ads, location of the app user, search terms and more.
– The display channel will deliver your interactive ad to a targeted audience of qualified customers as they use websites that are part of the Google Display Network.
– Via Google’s search channel, carefully selected keywords match your ads to the right buyers and sellers who are actively searching for a property that is similar to your listing.
– Through the Gmail channel, ads will appear in the Gmail inbox, just like emails. Targeting is determined through a user’s keyword interaction and other learned cues within each user’s inbox.
