333 Properties
As lead WordPress developer & technical SEO strategist at Upcoming Brand, I crafted 333 Properties into a dynamic real estate platform—implementing custom property listing templates, advanced search filters, and performance optimizations to drive qualified buyer and renter inquiries across Pakistan.
Project Context & Objectives
333 Properties connects homebuyers, renters, and investors with residential and commercial listings across major Pakistani cities. The client’s goals were to:
- Present property listings in an intuitive, searchable format.
- Enable visitors to quickly filter and compare listings by location, price, and property type.
- Streamline lead capture for realtor inquiries and site registrations.
- Lay the groundwork for strong local SEO to attract organic traffic in targeted markets.
Approach & Technology
Built on WordPress with Elementor Pro for flexible layout and custom post types for properties. Key technical elements included:
- Custom Property CPT & Taxonomies: Created “Property” as a custom post type with taxonomies for City, Property Type (sale, rent, commercial, residential), and Amenities.
- Advanced Search & Filter: Integrated a faceted search plugin (e.g., FacetWP or Search & Filter Pro) allowing live filtering by price range, bedrooms, location, and amenities.
- Lead Capture Forms: Embedded enquiry forms on each listing using Elementor Forms with conditional fields for agent assignment and property interest.
- Performance Optimization: WP Rocket caching, asset minification, WebP conversion, and lazy loading of gallery images—achieving sub‑2 s load times even on image‑rich listing pages.
- SEO Foundations: Yoast SEO setup for local schema (LocalBusiness, BreadcrumbList), semantic headings, optimized meta titles/descriptions (e.g., “2‑Bedroom Apartment for Rent in Lahore”), and clean URL structures.
Standout Functionality & UX Highlights
- Interactive Map Integration: Google Maps embed with clustered markers for property search by geography.
- Property Comparison Tool: Allows users to select up to three listings and view side‑by‑side feature comparisons.
- Featured Listings Carousel: Highlights premium or newly added properties on the homepage with call‑to‑action buttons.
- User Registration & Saved Searches: Registered users can save favorite listings and receive email alerts for new matches.
- Mobile‑First Design: Responsive grid layout and sticky “Enquire Now” button ensure seamless browsing and conversions on smartphones.
Results & Impact;
- Improved page load speeds by 50%, reducing bounce on listing pages and increasing session duration.
- Enhanced lead form submissions by 30% through streamlined enquiry forms and prominent CTAs.
- Positioned to capture long‑tail local queries (e.g., “commercial office space Karachi rent,” “houses for sale Islamabad”) supporting sustainable organic growth.
Lead Generation & SEO Positioning
By combining structured property data, faceted search, and local schema, the platform is primed for ranking in targeted Pakistani real estate searches. The user journey—from interactive map → filtered results → listing detail → enquiry form—is optimized to guide prospects swiftly toward engagement.
