What Actually Moves the Needle in Dealership SEO

[Rick Buffkin]

Me personally (and this is just me speaking here), if your website has a fat ass (I don't mean to offend anyone) and is slow to load and isn't somewhat structured well, it takes 10x the SEO effort to move the needle (If you can move it) with content and link building. Content is great and each site needs fresh good content on it but, really jumping in and cleaning up some of the bloated code to increase the site load times I think will move the organic needle faster than anything else. Why would Google recommend their user to your website if you're website is going to give their user a poor experience.

Nice pic but I’m not sure about a lot of things or what you’re trying to say.

450 referring domains, sourced because the dealership has good content? Could be organic, could be a directory dump, could be bought. The count doesn’t lead. And it doesn’t speak to relevance, if they pass any authority, or if a single one drives quality organic traffic. It’s a tally of links, not a measure of link quality, and quality is the only part that moves rankings or sells cars.

Local, meaningful, intent driving, authoritative links matter and if this is that… sign me up. My small mind can’t imagine that world is real.
