I saw an example just now...a Silverado priced at 39k on the site but when I hit the VDP it was 42k. From what I understand, the crawl rate of these search engines is not fast enough for how quickly pricing changes occur. I'm assuming the computing power required to crawl multiple times each day is prohibitive until these sites start making enough money.


I can't believe Cars.com is a 2.8mb footprint with 377 requests. Holy hell, optimize your requests guys! I think they're using AngularJS which to me is complete overkill for a listing site, but I digress...
