What Is the Banner Feature?

The Banner feature in Real Geeks allows you to display an announcement at the top of any page on your website. This is a great way to grab visitors’ attention and direct them to important updates, offers, or resources.

Banners can include a clickable link, making it easy for visitors to take action.

Here are a few examples of when you might want to use a banner:

• New Listing Announcement – Link to a featured property or a new listing page.
• Open House Promotion – Let visitors know about an upcoming open house with a link to the details.
• Market Updates – Share the latest market reports and trends.
• Special Offers – Promote a free home valuation, consultation, or special deal.
• Community Events – Link to a local event or sponsorship you’re involved in.
• Holiday Messages – Share seasonal greetings or special holiday hours.
