Building your brand online isn’t just limited to your website anymore. And by keeping your presence just on your website, you are loosing out on ways to stand out online in 2010 and making sure your business attracts customers. Directing this to auto dealerships, we see that it is very important to have a presence on Google Maps. When people type in a city + carbrand, Google finds them the closest car dealership. A listing pop with reviews and additional information about the store. Here you can see optimized listings that we have done for Fullerton Business Service, an accounting company and Fast Signs.
This is an example of Fullerton Business Service again on Google Search. As you see Fullerton Business Service is ranked #1 for Accountant Fullerton through our efforts. Having a ranking on page 2 or later does not sell a car. Therefore car dealers need to be on that first page, preferable in the first 3 listings. We can get those results.
Online advertizing are the ads placed on the side of the search results, we do online advertizing campaigns on Google, Yahoo, Bing and Facebook.
This is an example of blogs we have written for a personal trainer, we wrote about 20 blogposts per week for them, not only to increase ranking on Google, but to attract a new audience to their website that is interested to be trained by this expert in personal training and weight loss.
These are examples of lead generating Facebook Fan Pages, one is for a dentist and the other one is for the personal trainer again. This is how Facebook Fan Pages can look and are effective in generating leads.
These are landingpages that we have developed as part of our online advertizing campaign. When people click on an ad they will go to this specific page that gets people interested in the services and fill out a form, which is a lead. Auto dealers loose out on business if they do not have their brand presence there.
