I'm more or less looking for the insight of this wonderful forum again.
In another thread, Nick mentioned the use of Google Alerts, which I use personally. It enables you to pinpoint specific keywords and phrases that are being used around the web. This is helpful for locating what others are saying about your dealership / brand and additionally what people are saying about car buying in general.
Do any of you folks use Google Alerts? What's your primary use entail? Just checking on the competition? Checking on your own brand?
Just a quick tip that I wanted to provide as well - If you're focusing a lot on your blogging, Google Alerts is a great way to locate other blogs that are mentioning your desired topics - this way you can scout them out and comment on those blogs, building a bigger network for yourself.
