As is differentiating your brand, and our website solutions are designed to do just that.

Pull More Traffic through Search Engine Optimization

Good SEO optimization will help you connect your dealership to more potential customers because you’re easy to find. Maximizing your SEO is easier because your DealerOn website is built with search engine rankings, algorithms and other evaluative criteria in mind. We’ll help you configure your meta tags and assign your keywords on launch, but you’ll have the tools to update and refine them as your market evolves. DealerOn puts you in control.
Leverage Interactive "Call-To-Action" Opportunities
With a website that capitalizes on visitor click paths throughout your site, you can leverage strategic Calls-to-Action to gather lead information from interested site visitors. In addition to learning how to contact them and which vehicle they’re interested in, you’ll find out what stage of the buying process they’re in so you can follow-up accordingly. Accurately anticipating a buyer’s needs will help you sell more cars.
In fact, our customers are seeing an overall improvement in conversions of 7% - 10% across the DealerOn platform. And, their lead generation costs are lower because the quality of these conversions blows away leads from third party vendors. Why would you want to share?
Increase Conversions with a Virtual Assistant
Extend the warmth of your in-person showroom by utilizing a virtual assistant on your website. Research has proven that a human-like element can produce higher prospect conversions. The virtual assistant helps potential customers navigate your site and ensures they find your inventory, specials and incentives. You can choose between DealerOn’s four virtual assistant characters or use your own photo as the virtual assistant, adding that extra touch of personalization to your website.
But don't just take our word for it: Dr. Byron Reeves, a research professor at Stanford University, recently completed a study where he found that adding a human voice and face to a website increases retention, awareness, and conversion. "[Virtual assistants] can be perceived as realistic and well-liked social partners in conversations that simulate real-world interactions," says Dr. Reeves.
Easy Content Management & Backend Administration
With DealerOn, you’ll have access to update, add and manage your content more easily than you’ve experienced before. No more waiting on agencies to update text or upload accompanying pictures for you. Upload photos of your location and employees, create custom content pages with our template library, add or remove specials, and manually update or manipulate your inventory. Keep on top of it all with robust analytics and reporting. Because the market changes so quickly, sales reps come and go, how often you update the site to show your customers you’re in step with their needs is up to you.
