Have you looked at your dealers' SEO rankings since March 12th 2019?

I could care less, they are liars extraordinaires and one of the reasons that dealers struggle. The lies on top of lies on top of lies. I get that they are one of your "sponsors," but I still don't care. They can go to hell with this shit.

Sponsorship doesn't buy protection from logical evidence. If you have something to show, show it.

One minute you guys say it's perfectly fine to curse and be belligerent here and the next not? I don't get it. (I remember the exact conversation @Alex Snyder)

Cussing is totally acceptable. I believe Jeff is eluding to how you're presenting things. It is tarnishing your reputation.

AND... there's data to debunk their BULLSHIT claim.

Logical evidence goes a long way here.

Dealers discuss the impact of Google's March 12, 2019 core algorithm update on automotive industry SEO rankings, with some experiencing significant traffic gains while third-party sites like CarGurus suffered notable declines. The consensus advice is that there's no quick fix for algorithm-impacted sites—dealers should focus on user-first content, local SEO, Google Search Console optimization, and their own dealership initiatives rather than trying to game the system. One dealer reported impressive year-over-year gains (130% increase in new users, 70% increase in sessions), suggesting that solid SEO fundamentals position dealerships well to benefit from algorithm shifts.
