    Why Yelp should Seriously Eat S*^&% and Die

    Wow DealerRater, have NOT heard that name in a long time! But then again I've been out of the car biz for a while. Has any dealer here looked into adding review schema to their website? So their domain shows 5 stars in the SERPs? There's a bunch of review collection software out there that...

    Why Yelp should Seriously Eat S*^&% and Die

    They got a Consumer Alert report lmfao. Dont leave fake reviews under the same computer folks. Also don't hire someone that thinks you can talk to your customers that leave negative feedback like trash. I can't stand this new "Everything I dont like is fake" fuckery.

    Hammer Corp, Better Craigslist SEO?

    Anybody can write a script that edits existing CL posts, injects new vehicle information into it, refresh the ad and keep it at the top --- then call themselves exclusive partners with Craigslist. That's hilarious.

    Why Yelp should Seriously Eat S*^&% and Die

    I love how the new attitude of "HURR SNOWFLAKE I DO AS I PLEASE" has spilled into customer service.

    "7/1/2017 Scott R.- not really. We have sold 87 cars so far today. If you bought elsewhere, you paid too much" WATCH OUT FOLKS

    Integrating inventory into my website

    And that's why I'm staying away from "Automotive Themes" on TF and just using our standard multipurpose theme. I remember CarDealerPress even suggesting to use a standard Genesis theme and build your way up.

    Integrating inventory into my website

    Wordfence + changing wp-admin to a different URL is what we do, and we've even stopped the brute force bots, for now.

    Google Updates the Local Pack - Like it?

    Do you mean adding location variations to the search query or set the search location of Google? We get a ton of different SERP fluctuations for "used cars for sale" "used car dealer" "used car dealerships" and so forth.

    For those who depend on the local map pack, especially since local seems to be converting more than organic, *&%@ this.

    Carsforsale Withholding Domains

    I'm trying to set up a new site for a small dealership, whose current site is hosted by Carsforsale. The domain name belongs to them. When we requested we have them transfer ownership (or even point to our servers), they told us it has to "go through a quarterly review process then into final...

    Jeff, does that happen often? The OEM chooses the vendor for franchise dealers?

    Looking for an extremely good SEM company

    If I remember correctly (back in 2010-2012), HomeNet had their own paid SEM campaigns they were doing for our used car dealer. Using long-term search phrases (YMM/C specific) as opposed to short term (used car dealer City). More clicks, less ad budget needed, decent conversion. Not sure if they...

    What's the most annoying thing on your website?

    Funny, the best thing we got out of vAuto was a slap in the face for buying cars too damn high. :bump:

    TrueCar sued by dealers

    But it's only information obtained from dealers who have subscribed to TrueCar right? It's not like they're scraping every franchise site for their information?

    Looking to Advertise with someone, have quesiton

    This a million times. It's common to go apeshit and throw money towards any third party vendor that offers you X amount of leads and X million unique visitors per month shopping right through your digital door, etc. In the end you could have cash flow issues.
