HFO Investment Real Estate is pleased to announce that its mobile website has received “Best of Industry” first place awards in both the Real Estate and Professional Services categories from the Web Marketing Association. Entries are judged based on creativity, innovation, impact, design, copywriting, use of the medium and memorability.

“HFO is delighted to be receiving this award in the company of such well known industry leaders as Kraft Foods, Maybelline, Lowe’s, Geico, Overstock.Com, Goodyear and Carnegie Hall,” said HFO’s marketing director, Aaron Kirk Douglas. 

 “HFO’s clients and primary audience are real estate investors who wish to purchase or sell apartment buildings,” said Douglas.  “We also provide industry analysis and helpful articles and updates that multifamily investors need. We know that the apartment investors of today are busy people. They’re not always at a desk when they want to know what properties are available.  And if they need maps and directions to properties listed with us, they can easily link to Google Maps or other navigation services using our mobile website.”  Award information is available here.

Why Mobile Web?Mobile web is probably the most neglected and fastest growing segment of reaching Internet users today.   Consider these stats:*

  • Mobile devices account for roughly 9 percent of website traffic in North America and nearly half of all website hits globally.
  • The #1 activity of smartphone users is accessing maps and directions.
  • One in every seven Internet searches takes place on a mobile phone.

HFO’s main website (www.hfore.com) and the mobile version were designed by Saturno Design of Portland, Oregon.
