UTILIZED cars and truck dealers are being offered impractical pledges of top Google rankings by SEO 'specialists', only to learn that there is little or no enhancement, according to Dragon2000, a leading service provider of DMS services and car dealer websites
Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) is the strategy that lots of specialist firms provide and the outcomes that they assure sound rather compelling. The expense can range from a couple of hundred pounds to lots of thousands but, prior to registering, dealers ought to beware.
Having a new website developed will not guarantee a jump in the rankings. A sudden change in the layout, the words and the structure of a new site is likely, in fact, to trigger a drop in position in the short-term.
Google's notorious algorithms right away believe that somebody is aiming to game the system and, instead of allow the lead to be polluted, it penalises modification.
Karen McKenzie, operations supervisor at Dragon2000, said: 'Dealerships have to ask themselves, does it make sense to pay for the help of an SEO professional?
'We have actually seen some distinctly incompetent attempts to enhance SEO for some of our dealer consumers and in one case, the modifications triggered the website to crash.
'All this might seem like dealers might as well quit on the concept of ever being found on the internet and abandon the idea of a site completely. This is not the case. It's so essential to have a fantastic website, as essentially all dealership sales now originate from the internet.
'The bit that SEO" specialists" claim to enhance is a dealer's position on Google and we are all conditioned to thinking that Google is the only door-keeper. It isn't really and in the UK at least, we have a much better system for customers to find their next cars and truck in the online categorized sites.
'The greatest is Vehicle Trader but Motors, Pistonheads and eBay Motors and a host of other established portals-- combined with newbies Cars and truck Expert, AutoVolo and QuidCarAds-- serve as a big online search engine for used cars and trucks. Customers can browse by make, design, rate, colour and numerous other requirements.
'Once an ideal automobile lies, the next stop is the dealer's website, by means of the go to website button together with the ad. If a dealership's website is old-fashioned, difficult to navigate or does not scale well onto a mobile device, the customer might go somewhere else.
'So, beyond somebody searching for a dealer by name where they appear plainly in Google, we believe that paying for generic SEO services to enhance website ranking on Google is most likely a waste of money-- unless the company offering can show very particular evidence of having improved the rankings of UK-based cars and truck dealership websites.
