Mortgage Web Site Design &

Mortgage Broker Web Sites

(If you already have a site, and want to learn how to get free, targeted traffic by being #1 on the search engines- click here - Mortgage Website Marketing)

Are you looking for a great mortgage web site design? Or do you want to create your own mortgage broker web site from scratch? We have done both. And I can tell you from experience, that having a mortgage web site created for you is much easier. But not always more effective.

There are dozens of companies that offer mortgage web sites. Some are very expensive, and some are very cheap. If you buy your own mortgage web site template, you could pay as little as $30. But all you get is a one page site with no features.

If you can afford it, you can pay several thousand dollars to have someone do some mortgage web site design for your site. Or to have someone to build mortgage web site for you. But then you have to pay every time you want something changed. Unless you know a lot of html. (The programming language most mortgage broker web sites are written in.)

The best, easiest, and most time effective way is to contract with one of the companies that provide turn key mortgage web sites. But even then, you have to be careful.

Our mortgage company, MoneyTree Mortgage signed with the largest company in the industry providing these mortgage broker web sites. And we were very disappointed. When we tried to add a simple link to the homepage, they charged us $60! Adding a link takes less than 1 minute. We were stuck with their ugly graphics, and would have to pay several hundred dollars to change anything.

But still, we were able to generate some traffic there, and do take loan apps from the site. So at least, it has paid for itself.

Beware: 99% of mortgage web site companies do not help you get people to your mortgage web site. All they do is design and host the site on their computers. It is then your job to get people there.

We thought we would try some Search Engine Optimization for our site to have it appear on the search engines. Guess what? We were not allowed. Unless of course we paid them over a thousand dollars more.

That's when I decided to create my own site again. I was tired of having my hands tied behind my back when I wanted to make changes to my own mortgage web site, even after I paid a couple thousand dollars. So I put together a list of all the things I would want in my dream mortgage web site. This is what I came up with.

I should be able to:

• afford it easily. It should pay for itself in less than one loan
• add pages to my site and it should be very easy to do so. I don't want to become an expert in html
• have several email addresses
• have my own domain name: www.mymortgagecompany.com
• have visitors fill out pre-quals, and complete 1003s on the site. And have that information safe from thieves and hackers.
• take that info and import it into my loan processing software easily.
• be notified by email when someone fills out a loan app online.
• be able to generate leads, by offering free information in the form of several different reports or email classes
• be able to follow up with visitors via unlimited time-delayed emails. This will automate the follow up process for me.
• have the system automatically email all the parties involved in a loan (listing agent, selling agent, borrower, seller, builder, etc.) when the loan file is updated. This will stop agents and others calling me for loan updates. This will also show my professionalism and result in more referrals.
• automatically email prospects when the interest rate they are looking for is hit. (Rate Alert)
• make changes to the site for search engine optimization
• change the design of my site in seconds. - Have dozens of mortgage web site templates to choose from
• have surveys and questionnaires
• have an email newsletter
• have pop-ups
• input all my rates and have them update automatically
• have several mortgage calculators that I can use for other applications as well
• send personalized email blasts to my lists
• provide pages on my site to my referral partners
• have a link exchange to generate links to my site
• allow me to sell other's products as an affiliate if I choose
• have scrolling text that will float across the screen
• be available to visitors 24/7 without fail
• have free phone support if I ever have a question
• be affordable
• track my visitors and give complete stats on where my visitors are coming from, what they do on my site, for how long, and a host of others.

This was just the first list I came up. Later I added even more features that I had to have on my website.

Then I went looking for a mortgage web site design company that provided all these features. Guess what? No one does.

Not one mortgage web site design company out there today offers all these features, which I believe are crucial to having the most effective, automatic mortgage web site.

Face it - what good is a mortgage web site if you have to fiddle with it all the time? I want my site to be hands-off. I don't want to touch it unless I am looking at my leads or doing some marketing.

My ideal mortgage broker web site should be totally automated. It should be generating leads, following up with those leads, and converting them to applications, that it takes itself while I am off on vacation in the Bahamas.

And so I set out to find a mortgage web site design company that can design a website with all these features and more. The first company I approached, had many of these features. They were excited about working with MortgageBrokerTraining.com and they said they could provide our customers will everything we needed.

But they couldn't. For whatever reason they felt adding all these features would be too expensive for them and they bailed out. They would rather sell a product that limits what you can do then do what is necessary to sell a quality mortgage web site.

Luckily I was approached by another company, that wanted to work together. I showed them all the features I wanted, and they set to work right away. In time, I believe we will make available to most comprehensive mortgage broker web site available in the market today.

If you wish to be notified as soon as these websites are available, please subscribe to our announcement list below. You will be alerted before anyone else, and that usually means you will get a great introductory offer that will not be made to the general public. Sign up Now.

And if you have any features you would like to see in your mortgage web site, email your suggestions to sales@mortgagebrokertraining.com and we will try to incorporate them.

Coming Soon: a mortgage broker web site, created by a joint venture between a mortgage web site design company, and the leader in mortgage marketing and training products in the industry.

A mortgage broker web site, that any computer novice can use. That actually generates its own traffic, generates leads, follows up with those leads, takes applications, provides follow up for loans in processing, and lets you reap the benefit.

I have seen the future mortgage web sites, and they are awesome!
