Internet Sales Managers For Car Dealers Should Learn Wordpress Blogs
January 11, 2010 by admin · Leave a Comment
One of the best ways to get more traffic to your dealer website is from a Wordpress Blog. If you’re an Internet Sales Manager for a car dealership my advice to you in get your own.
Having your own car blog will not only help your dealership, it will help you. It’s no secret that an Internet Sales Manager position in the car business can be short lived. If you had your own blog you could bring it to your next job, and change everything to where you are.
Wordpress Blogs are free, and it takes about 60 days to start ranking. Do not get a “Free” hosted blog from Wordpress, spend the $90.00 a year and have it self hosted. You will get more traffic this way and you will own it.

Easily Make $300.00 A Month, and get your Dealership more leads at the same time.
Did you know once you get traffic you can sign up for Google Adsense? Currently car dealers and other third party companies pay over $3.00 a click. Google will pay you half of that. I have an old printing blog that I converted into car related keywords, and I make about $300.00 a month from Google.
I simply blog about once a week, and Google sends me a check every month. Yes, Google makes my car payment!
Here are the steps to get started:
1) Buy A Domain Name
Be sure to buy a domain name with keywords in it. If you live in Florida try to find a good one like floridacarblog.com, or carblogflorida.com. If you plan on staying in your current city, buy one with your city name in it. Be sure to buy it for at least 3 years! If you only buy it for one you will be a suspected spammer.
2) Get Hosting
I recommend Bluehost. I’ve been using them for years. They make it as easy as possible to setup your car blog using a program called Simplescripts. Check them out here.
3) Choose A Theme
Wordpress has thousands of free themes. Check them out here. Find a good one and install it. Don’t worry, you can easily change your theme as often as you’d like.
4) Set Up General Settings
Name your blog with keywords, and make sure everything looks right first. Now is the time to tinker around, because your blog is so new nobody will ever find it.
5) Start Blogging
Be sure to blog about your inventory, not what every other dealer blogs about. The idea is, you want to drive traffic to your dealer website. Blog about your inventory. Check out what we do for Napleton Jeep Chrysler Dodge: Orlando Florida Car Blog
