The car business is insanely competitive, and dealers are starting to realize that if they're not doing SEO and social media, they're going to get left in the dust. Google is the elephant in the room - you've got to play by Google's rules or suffer the consequences of zero search engine traffic.

If Google were to give you a tool to track how your website was doing and what sort of visitors your site had, wouldn't you want to use it? It did, and it's called Google Analytics. If you're not using it, stop reading right now and go set it up.

What about a dashboard that would tell you if there were any problems on your website that alerted you to any performance issues? It's called Google Webmaster Tools... again, if you're not using it, go set it up.

What if Google gave you a tool that would allow you to completely and totally dominate your competition? We're talking about the proverbial silver bullet here, people... and it exists...

Hold on, hold on - I know what you're thinking. "Google+ is a ghost town" or "Google+ is a failure" - You're thinking that your customers aren't there, so there's no point.

Why +1 Buttons Are Important

If you haven't heard about it yet, Google personalizes search results. If you're logged in to Gmail or Google+, you'll see different search results based on your search history and the influence of your connections. +1s have a DIRECT influence on where a site appears on search results. If a single customer +1s your site, then your site will rank better  in search results of anyone connected to that customer - as far out as second degree connections!

I'm going to type that out again, in bold - just to be sure you're getting it:

If someone gives a +1 to your dealership's website, your site will rank higher in Google search results for anyone that's connected to them, or anyone that's connected to any of those connections.

Let's Do Some Simple Math

For the sake of this example, let's say that I was on your dealer website and gave it a +1. I have about 150 people that I email through Gmail, and I have 176 people in Google+ circles. Add those together, and Google has me logged at 226 connections. To make the math easier, let's round that down to 200. Also, for the sake of the example and easy math, let's say that each of my 200 connections has just 100 connections. Multiply my 200 connections by their 100 connections and you get 20,000... So my single +1 to your dealer website now results in your site getting ranked higher in the search results of 20,000 people!

I'm completely serious here. Even if your dealership only has a single customer who uses Gmail or Google+, you're still able to boost your rankings in thousands of potential searches.

Obviously, the user base for Google+ is still pretty low, so let's try another example for the naysayers out there. Let's assume that none of your website visitors use Google+, and that the user who clicks the +1 button only has 50 Gmail contacts. Let's also assume that those 50 contacts only have 50 contacts each. 50 times 50 gives us 2,500... so even in an example like this, you're still able to boost your rankings in potential searches from 2,500 users.

One More Thing...

You do not have to have a Google+ business page to use a +1 button on your website - so I'm not suggesting that you jump in to another social network. In fact, you don't have to even use Gmail or Google+ at all - you just need to put the button on your dealer website so that customers who DO use Google can click the +1.

Also - There are companies out there that sell +1s. That's not what we're talking about here, so please don't misinterpret what I'm saying. Buying +1s is just like buying Facebook friends - they're fake and it's not going to do anything for you. I'm talking about legitimate +1 clicks from real people with real Google accounts that they actually use.  

A final point: It's up to Google how powerful the +1 button will be in search rankings. The impact could be huge, or it might only change things slightly. Obviously, you're only going to rank higher in searches related to your business - so while you could potentially influence the results of 2,500 people, it isn't going to matter unless any of those users are in the market to buy a car. The important point here is that there is zero reason not to add the +1 button to your site. It requires almost no effort, and the potential gains are huge.

If you have any thoughts on +1 buttons or installing them on your dealer website, please leave a comment and we'll continue the discussion.

Brace yourselves, car dealers - things are about to get interesting...

Local search has become increasingly vital to success in the auto industry, and today, Google made a huge change that will change the way that every auto dealer optimizes for local search. Say goodbye to Google Places... And say hello to Google+ Local.

Google Places has been the go-to destination for local search dominance, and now Google is replacing them entirely with Google+ Local pages. As of this morning, approximately 80 million Google Place pages were automatically converted to Google+ Local pages. Apparently, this isn't a typical staggered rollout either - all of the Places pages will be converted to Google+ Local pages within a matter of days.

As of this morning (Thursday, May 31st), it looks like Google has rolled out the changes across all of its properties.

If you're an auto dealer who's been relying heavily on Google Places and Google Reviews, you'll need to update your strategy ASAP. If you haven't gotten into local optimization yet, there's never been a better time to start.

Here are the most important changes that have been made:

• Google+ Local pages will replace Google Places pages.
• Google+ Local pages will be indexed by Google. That means that unlike the old Places pages, they'll show up in search results.
• Google+ has a new "Local" tab
• The old 5-star review system has been replaced with the Zagat 30-point review system.
• Google+ Local pages will be integrated across Google properties (Google+, standard search, Google Maps, mobile)
• A Google+ circles filter has been added so you can find reviews from people you know

New Google+ Local page layout

Here are a few screen captures that show mow much the page layout has changed. The first image is the old Google Places page, and the second image is the new Google+ Local layout.

Notice that Google has gone back to the two-box approach for searches. You'll enter what you're looking for in the first box, and then enter the city you're searching in the second box.

New Google+ Local search results

Check out this before and after shot of what the search results look like. The top shot is the old Places layout, and the bottom shot is the new results with the Zagat rating system.

According to Google, the Zagat rating system can provide a much more nuanced differentiation between establishments. Instead of a simple 5-star scale, auto dealers will be rated from 0-3 in three different categories: Quality, Appeal, and Service. Each section is then multiplied by 10 and every review is averaged for your overall score.

The conversion to Google+ Local pages is happening whether your Places page is claimed or not. If you've already claimed your Places page, you'll continue to manage your information and reviews through Google Places for Business - so your back end won't change. We mentioned it above, but in case you missed it - Google+ Local pages will be indexed. That means your Google+ Local page can show up in search results in local searches. It's more important than ever to get on Google and claim your listing - your listing could potentially show up on Page One, so you should claim it and control it. There's HUGE potential for SEO benefits from this update - you'll want to be sure that you get up to speed with Google+ as soon as possible.

Google provided a few examples of businesses that were invited to enhance their Google+ Local pages before the rollout. Check out Mio Restaurant to see what you'll soon be able to do with your dealership. It looks like you'll be able to merge your Google+ Business Page with your Google+ Local page, so your customers can follow your dealership and subscribe to your posts. Think of it like your dealership's Facebook page, but on steroids. You get a social hub where customers can interact with you, read reviews, leave reviews, and more - and it's all going to be indexed by Google.

Final Thoughts on Google+ Local pages

This is a pretty major change, and nobody really knows where the dust will settle. The big benefit is that your page will be much more user-friendly and easier to find. The expanded Zagat review system will be much more useful to potential customers, and the expanded scoring system will help the dealers who are doing it right stand out from the crowd. Customers won't have to be logged into Google+ to access your information, but if they are logged in, the experience will be even more engaging.

Obviously, Google is hoping that their forced play to get millions of local businesses to jump into Google+ Local pages will bring more of the masses to Google+. They haven't had much success yet, but considering how important Google Places was to local search, we're guessing that a lot of businesses are going to be jumping in to Google+. We'll have to see how things go.

While customers will have a fairly seamless transition, it's going to be more difficult for dealers. Most dealers have been ignoring Google+ so far, due to lack of customer engagement, but now every dealer will be pretty much forced to integrate Google+ into their business strategy. This isn't like Facebook Business pages, where you can choose to ignore it and still get by... If you want to succeed in local search, you're going to HAVE TO start using Google+.

One big head-scratcher - Google still doesn't give API access to any of the common Social Media Management tools (like Hootsuite). Instead of being able to easily integrate Google+ into their marketing routine, dealers are going to have to log directly into Google+ to post updates. This will be a headache for individual stores, at the very least - and a nightmare for dealer groups who have to juggle multiple locations.

Stay tuned - we're going to follow the situation closely, and we'll keep you updated.

You’ve probably seen those shows on cable where designers flip a trashed out house or they take a normal garage and turn it into a luxurious “man-cave.” With just a little bit of time, they take ordinary spaces and make them flashy and incredible… and you can do the same thing for your Google Places page. Most car dealers have a Google Places page now, so you’ve got to do everything you can to make your Places page outshine your competitors. With just a little effort, your Google Places page will be more visible, bring you more business, and completely blow away your competitors.

6 TIPS TO SUPERCHARGE YOUR GOOGLE PLACES PAGE

(not in any specific order)

1. Get your Google Places page to 100% completeness. Before you use any of these other tips, you should get your Google Places page to 100%. Fill out your info, upload pictures, upload videos… Google tells you right there in your dashboard how complete your page is – pay attention to what Google wants!

2. Add a post to your Google Places page with a link. Your Places page is there to help draw attention to your website. Most dealers don’t know about the “post” feature that lets you put an update on your Places page. Link to important, relevant information – your about us page, your specials page, your service page, or anything else that helps draw attention to your website.

3. Make sure you get at least 5 reviews from your customers. Your average star review rating won’t show up until you get 5 reviews. Those review stars are critical for clickthroughs from the SERPs – don’t miss out on business because you don’t have any stars!

4. Upload photos to major third-party sites. Google only allows you to upload 10 pictures to your Google Places page, but it’s possible to have more than 10 pictures show up. If you upload pictures to your profile on major third-party photo sites (like Flickr, CitySearch, and InsiderPages, to name a few), Google will grab those photos and add them to your Places page.

5. Get your loyal customers (or friends) to upload pictures to your Places page. If they upload a photo through their Google account, it will show up as “From a Google user.” Again, Google only lets you upload 10 pictures to your Places page, but if you have customers upload photos, they’ll be added to your 10 and you’ll be able to showcase more photos. Plus, if potential customers see that you have customers uploading pictures to your Places page, they’ll see that your customers care enough about you to upload pictures – and that will help with clickthroughs.

6. Reply to every review on your Places page. OK, so maybe you don’t have to reply to EVERY review – but why should you only reply to negative reviews? Leave a reply to positive reviews as well – it looks great to potential customers and it helps to fill out the review area of your page. Plus, you can sometimes slip in a bit of info on your services that might not be mentioned in your reviews.

Yes, you read that right – there’s a car dealership in Chicago that’s offering FREE cars if the Packers get shut out by the Bears this Sunday. For any vehicle sold from December 16th through this Friday, Sawicki Motors will rebate 100% of the purchase price if the Chicago Bears shut out the Green Bay Packers on Christmas Day.

They’re limiting the payout to the first $1 million worth of vehicles sold during that period, but it’s still a potentially costly bet. Sawicki Motors averages about 35-40 sales a month, with an average price of $22,000. the most expensive car on their lot is an Escalade listed at $76,000. If you really look at the numbers, though, it’s clear that there’s not much risk for Sawicki to make the offer. The Packers have the best offense in the NFL with an average of 34.3 points per game, and there have only been 4 shutouts in the 224 NFL games played this season.

“Bears fans mostly have been laughing about it because the likelihood (of the Bears preventing the Packers from scoring) is not that great,” said Ron Matula, sales manager of the dealership that sells new Chevrolet, Cadillac and Buick vehicles as well as used cars. “None of the Packers fans have called me names or swore at me yet. They have just been saying ‘it’s not going to happen.’”

But it could happen… Last week when the Packers played the Chiefs, the Green Bay had a 13-0 record and an average of 36 points per game. The lowly Chiefs beat up on the Packers and held them scoreless until late in the third quarter – and they ended up beating the Packers. Chicago has a much better defense than Green Bay and desperately needs a win to stay in the playoff race. There’s always a chance of injury – if something happened to a key player, things could go south quickly for the Packers.

So what do you think? Is Sawicki Motors brilliant for making the offer and drumming up a lot of free press? Or are they crazy for making such a risky bet? Leave a comment and let us know what you think!
