Integrating neighborhood pages on our new website through NeighborhoodWrap enabled us to:
SEO is no longer just about stuffing your content with keywords. The recent massive leak of Google’s search documentation has revealed crucial insights into over 14,000 ranking factors, highlighting the significant shift in SEO strategies.
Search engines are smarter, focusing more on how users interact with your site and the intent behind their searches. For homebuyers, this intent often revolves around finding the right neighborhood — a factor that plays a crucial role in their decision-making process.
According to a recent NAR research, more than 60% of homebuyers rank neighborhood quality as the most important factor when choosing a location. Today’s homebuyers are looking beyond property details — they need reliable neighborhood-level insights to help guide their decision-making. As consumers place greater emphasis on neighborhood selection, agents and brokers face increased pressure to meet heightened expectations and deliver differentiated value.
To stay competitive and attract more clients, brokerages must integrate neighborhood data into their offerings to enhance their website. By showcasing local expertise and offering comprehensive neighborhood insights, brokerages can position themselves as trusted resources in a market where buyers are more discerning than ever.
Our products drive engagement on over 8,000 real estate websites across the US and Canada, so it’s only natural that we leverage that power on our own site as well. With consumers’ growing appetite for neighborhood insights in mind, we decided to revamp our website. We refreshed our product and industry pages and introduced new neighborhood pages powered by NeighborhoodWrap — our SEO-focused solution that combines powerful SDKs and APIs.
With the launch of our new website, we scaled Local Logic’s organic traffic and engagement by creating over 100,000 neighborhood pages filled with dynamic, hyperlocal content that encouraged greater user interaction. High-quality, fresh content is essential for a website’s organic ranking, and neighborhood pages provide unique insights that capture long-tail keyword searches. Our products are continually updated to ensure that the data remains relevant, making our content attractive to search engine crawlers and reducing the burden of manual updates for website owners.
Within four weeks of going live, our neighborhood pages contributed to a 10x increase in overall impressions and a 2x increase in overall clicks for the entire website, demonstrating their effectiveness in driving SEO performance.
We also saw the impact extend beyond the neighborhood pages. In the following weeks, the new website doubled direct traffic to our product, industry, use case, and pricing pages.
These results highlight how neighborhood pages are driving a significant lift across the website, leading us to successfully 6x our organic traffic in just one month.
Additionally, our WAU/MAU (Weekly Active Users/Monthly Active Users) ratio has grown to 31.2%, meaning that nearly a third of our monthly visitors return at least once a week. This highlights strong interest and consistent engagement with our content. The 26.4% growth in this metric over the past month is even more telling, reflecting significant improvements in user retention.
This uptick suggests that our efforts to enhance content quality with neighborhood insights and to engage users are working. With more users returning weekly, it signals that our website is becoming a go-to resource for them.
Adding neighborhood pages to our website helped us:
The most powerful tool for showcasing your local expertise and accelerating sales is your website, but it is often under-optimized. In a competitive, post-NAR settlement landscape, a strong online presence is more critical than ever for standing out and reaching the right audience.
