With 70 million monthly sessions and 2.3 million unique users across Zoopla, there’s huge potential for your brand to be seen. 

These audiences can find your brand using the Find agents service on Zoopla, and having a professional and consistent image can help make the decision for customers choosing an agent. 

Your first opportunity to boost your brand

First impressions are formed within seconds, which is why your Branch Profile is an important starting point. When a potential customer searches for you in the Find agents section of Zoopla and clicks View agent profile, they'll see a description - use this space to highlight something special about your branch or service that makes you stand out from other agents. Be sure to add a high resolution logo and test how your profile and logo look on different platforms so that you ensure a consistent image on both a mobile and desktop view.

You can link your social media to your Branch Profile and our Zoopla Advantage platform provides you with regularly updated research and insight that you can use to frame your local insights for your social media posts and videos.
