Ray White New Zealand were again acknowledged at the 2013 ESET Netguide Web Awards as a finalist in front of a large audience at the awards held last Thursday at the Hilton Hotel to celebrate the New Zealand IT industry award winners for 2013.
Ray White were the only national franchise group to be recognised as one of the finalists in company with three other independent property websites and only one other real estate company. Ray White were also finalists in the awards last year that had over 290,000 votes from the public awarding in various categories.
Head of technology in New Zealand, Keith Ashkettle, said that the Net Guide finalist acknowledgement supported the Ray White Group’s industry leading applications that have been applied to the raywhite.co.nz website, particularly during the past 12 months. The Group has engaged Walk Score that gives users real time information in regards to what a particular area has to offer in respect of services, schools and transport. This was one of the most used applications on our website.
The Ray White Group in 2014 introduced to its franchises an integrated video system provided by Autoplay. The company has a tiering method which ensures every property which is listed with a Ray White member can have a video and we also have the capability of providing voice-overs and individually custom-tailored videos for property.
Carey Smith, Chief Executive of Ray White New Zealand, said that he wished to acknowledge the outstanding work the Ray White technology team do for the company. Members also keep us at the cutting edge of our technology requirements and that assists us in being an industry leader in all areas of technology.
The Ray White Group has 135 websites which link to each individual office and this is housed within a national website. Ray White also has a high degree of readership on the blogging website raywhiteonline.co.nz
