More contacts with AI optimisation

The search for property information is changing. More and more people are asking complete questions and expecting direct answers. These questions are increasingly being answered by AI systems such as ChatGPT.

For you as a real estate agent, this means: 
Your website should not only be found on Google. 
It should also be structured in a way that AI systems can understand, classify and recommend your content.  
This does not require you to rethink your website from scratch or create SEO-optimised content twice. At its core, much remains the same – only the focus shifts:

Traditional search engines and AI pursue a similar goal

Even in traditional search engine optimisation, it was never just about keywords. 
Good content has always been content that answers questions and helps users.

AI systems continue to pursue exactly this goal. 
The difference is that they place even more emphasis on whether content is clear, understandable and trustworthy.

This means for you: 
You do not optimise separately for Google and for AI
You continue to create one high-quality piece of content that works for both.

What does not change compared to classic SEO

Many fundamentals remain unchanged and continue to be important:

  • Content must be relevant to your target audience
  • Pages need a clear thematic focus
  • Local relevance plays a central role
  • Texts should be well structured and easy to understand

If you already take these points into account, you are on the right track – also for AI.

What becomes more important through AI

AI reads your website less as a marketing page and more as a source of information. 
That is why greater attention is paid to whether content truly explains and puts things into context.

For example, the following become more important:

  • clear statements instead of promotional language,
  • understandable information instead of vague promises,
  • a clear separation between professional content and offers.

This is not a break with classic SEO, but rather its further development.

One website, two goals – one piece of content

You do not need different texts for search engines and for AI. 
On the contrary: clearly written, factual content works for both.

If your website:

  • answers real questions,
  • is clearly structured,
  • and appears professional,

then it can be found on Google and used by AI systems at the same time.

Your website as a helpful source of information

AI evaluates content based on whether it provides orientation. 
This does not mean that you have to give up offers. What matters is that professional content takes centre stage and is not overshadowed by advertising.

This makes your website:

  • more helpful for visitors,
  • easier for search engines to understand,
  • and more usable for AI systems.

Conclusion

AI does not replace classic search engine optimisation. 
It builds on it.

If you already focus on good content, clear structure and local relevance, you do not need to start over. You simply need to follow this path more consistently.

This is how you create content that:

  • gets found,
  • gets understood,
  • and builds trust.

And that is exactly what leads to more qualified contacts in the long term.
