hi
Have you been by the new Gwinnett Braves stadium lately? I drove by today and things are starting to come together. If you are not aware, the Richmond Braves, the AAA farm team of the Atlanta Braves is moving to Gwinnett County to open play on April 15, 2009. This is a very exciting time for baseball fans in the Gwinnett County area. Personally I cannot wait. I have been to numerous minor league baseball games and there is just something different watching the minor leaguers play versus the big boys.

Gwinnett County Schools Set ACT Record
Related Posts: Parks & Sports
hiGwinnett County Public Schools students have set a record for the system’s highest-ever composite score on the ACT. The ACT is a curriculum-based test designed to measure college preparedness. The Counties average composite score of 22.2 out of a possible 36 points is also higher than the state’s average of 20.6 points and the national average of 21.1 points, a news release states.
A closer look also shows that more Gwinnett County students took the ACT during the 2007-08 school year than ever before, and the average scores on the individual tests also rose. (The) results are a direct reflection of the great teaching and learning that occurs in our high schools,” said Jorge Quintana, the school district’s spokesman. “Our teachers truly care about our students, and are committed to preparing them for a bright and successful future.”
In Georgia, high school seniors made gains on the ACT, even as the national average for the college readiness exam fell.
The state’s composite ACT score rose to 20.6 in 2008, up from 20.3 in 2007. Nationally, the number fell to 21.1, down from 21.2 last year. Georgia’s scores increased in every subject area tested by the ACT and the state moved up three spots to 41st, up from 44 in 2007 and 47 in 2002. Gwinnett, Cobb and Fulton counties led the state in schools with the highest scores, as each school district had at least five schools with scores above 22.
The results of these test scores are welcome news to anyone who has children in the school system and we all should be extremely proud of all students, teachers and school administrative personnel. Congratulations to all.

Sold! Sanborne Terrace - Hamilton Mill

hiDiamond Dwellings is pleased to welcome a new neighbor to Hamilton Mill. We just sold another Hamilton Mill home yesterday. This home is located in the Ashebrooke section and sold for 98% of list price.
Why did the home sell? It was priced right ($299,900, Five bedroom, four full baths). The home was in immaculate condition, and word of mouth was important in the sale of this home as well as our internet marketing were all key factors to getting this home under contract and sold.
There are over 120 homes for sale in Hamilton Mill as of this writing, and to get the traffic and ultimately offers that get homes sold all of the above mentioned items are crucial to selling success.
Why are these factors important to you as a seller and buyer?

Google says “Your House Doesn’t Exist” unless you rank.

hi
We’ve been working on this Hamilton Mill website for about 9 or 10 months now. It took about 6 months worth of hard work, but after the first 6 months, we found that we consistently ranked at or very near the #1 or #2 spot in the Google search results for “Hamilton Mill”. We’re very proud of this accomplishment, but it’s actually only step one in the process of helping clients sell their home (or buy one).
This site (like all our sites) is designed to provide comprehensive real estate information about this exact area. It’s pretty obvious why we do this. We know that providing lots of great information to potential home buyers (and sellers) in the area will ultimately lead to more sales for Diamond Dwellings.
One of the key elements to internet marketing is Search Engine Optimization (SEO). SEO is kind of hard to define — yet the results are very easy to define. The #1 goal of all SEO work is to “win the search results” on Google, Yahoo and other search portals. Since most people only look at the top 3 or 4 results from a typical search, you basically don’t exist unless you rank at the very top for the key search terms on a specific subject.
I recently hired a new franchise attorney to help with the Diamond Dwellings franchise agreement. I hired him for 2 reasons. Both reasons are essential.
#1. He was easy to find online.
#2. He had “the right answers” when I contacted him
So, I started with a simple search for “Franchise Attorney”. Google gave me 436,000 results (no, really) Then I called 3 or 4 of the top ranked attorneys (ranked by Google). Then, since Google said they exist, I evaluated those 3 or 4 based on response time to my inquiry — and most importantly based on what they actually said when we talked (how well they represented their expertise, etc)
Search results are the critical 1st step in the process of finding the right buyer for your home (assuming the buyer is searching online for this area). Step two involves true salesmanship & experience to close the deal once the lead has been acquired.
