Answers
Your questions about the build, the score, and the price
These are the questions agents and brokers ask us most. For deeper detail, read the platform page, the score, or full pricing.
What makes Ranked Realty different from a typical agent website?
Ranked Realty builds agent and brokerage websites with IDX home search, SEO, and content, then goes further on the three things that decide who gets found now: speed, accessibility, and AI visibility. We ship in about 48 hours, build ADA compliance in, and optimize every page so Google and the AI answer engines actually find and recommend you.
What is an authority score and can you really improve it?
Authority scores such as Moz Domain Authority and Semrush Authority Score estimate how trusted your site is. No agency controls them directly, and we never promise a specific number. What we do is the real work that moves them: consolidating link equity with 301 redirects, reclaiming citations, earning links, and publishing helpful content, then reporting the figures month over month.
How fast can my site go live?
A standard agent site is live in about 48 hours once we have your content and MLS details. Brokerage sites take a little longer because of the extra agent, office, and community pages.
What is AI visibility and why does it matter for real estate?
Buyers and sellers increasingly ask AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity for agent recommendations, and Google now answers many searches with AI Overviews. If your site lacks structured data, FAQ and voice markup, and clean crawlable pages, those systems cannot cite you. We build every site so they can.
Do you connect to my MLS and IDX feed?
Yes. We wire fast, mobile-first property search to your MLS through a supported IDX feed, with valuation capture and clear calls to action.
Will my new site keep the value of my old website?
Yes, when an established site exists. We map it with clean 301 redirects so the years of trust and links transfer to the new site instead of being lost.
Is accessibility really included?
Always. Every build meets WCAG AA: color contrast, alt text, labeled forms, keyboard navigation, and an accessibility widget. It lowers legal risk and reaches more visitors, and it is standard, not an upsell.
Do you only build real estate websites?
Real estate is our focus, but the same visibility engine works for any local or regulated industry, including healthcare, government, and professional services, backed by our HIPAA, PCI, and JusticeTech experience.
