PPC & SEM For Auto Dealerships
Pay-Per-Click Advertising (PPC)
Pay-Per-Click Advertising or PPC is a relatively straightforward concept. The amount you pay for your ad space is determined by the number of visitors who click on the ad which leads to your website. Upon using our services, you’ll be assigned a designated account manager to ensure that you are selecting the appropriate keywords and reducing the possibility of accidental clicks.
Search Engine Marketing (SEM)
Search engine marketing, SEM, is very similar to PPC, but typically refers to buying paid advertisements that will be displayed at the top of search engine rankings while including more approaches.
Why Use PPC or SEM?
1. See nearly instant boosts in customer traffic.
2. Advertise temporary or seasonal deals.
3. Drive customers to your dealership when you have an inventory surplus.

1. I’ve advertised on Craigslist before. Has anything changed over the last 5 years?
Yes, a lot has changed. Craigslist Auto now charges $5 per listing and uses algorithms to filter out “junk postings” and help Craiglist search results be more relevant to the consumer. Instead of basing which listings show first solely on what time they were posted, vehicle posts can now “beat the clock”: older posts can show first by simply being more appealing and being optimized to satisfy the Craigslist algorithm.
2. Why should I avoid managing my own Craigslist inventory posting?
Your inventory, pricing, and vehicle info are constantly changing. An automated solution synced with your website is the only way to stay current and keep your inventory listings up to date.
Plus, there are 13 steps involved in creating a Craigslist vehicle listing from start to finish, and that doesn’t involve maintaining, updating, and refreshing them. Keeping on top of this for your entire used inventory simply isn’t a time-efficient solution!
3. What’s the “science” behind posting on Craigslist?
Craigslist Auto now uses an algorithm to decide which vehicle listings should show at the top of the Search Results Page (SRP). And our program has nailed that algorithm using data and science, A/B/C testing hundreds of variations of listing templates to see which one is truly the “champion” when it comes to getting to the top of the SRP.
4. What makes Dealers Choice's Craigslist Posting tool different than others?
- Everything we do is based on data and science: not gut feelings.
- Our design templates beat any other competitors’.
- We include “Full Reporting” with call tracking and by-vehicle reporting for your market.
- Our system knows the best time and day to post each vehicle.
- We automatically detect when you sell a vehicle and will swap a new vehicle in place of the old ad without any additional charge (nobody else does this!).

1. How long will it take to get up and running with a new PPC provider?
We allow 7-10 business days for our PPC solution to be activated once your website provider places our tracking code on your site.
2. Will my Quality Score be affected if I switch PPC providers?
No! Quality Score is domain driven. As long as you shut off your current provider, your Quality Score shouldn’t be affected. In fact, most clients experience a higher Quality Score within the first 30 days on our program.
3. How much should my ad spend be?
Every dealership’s market is different. Typically we suggest sticking with your current PPC budget (for the first 30 days) to let our team gain true insight on your local market before making any recommendations.
We use a data driven approach and will help your dealership understand the online opportunities and recommend budget changes as seen fit. We find that most of our dealers are grossly under-spending and not leveraging all the tools and data available to them.
4. Can I change my budget?
Absolutely—anytime! In fact, we offer a flat rate management fee and load your credit card directly into Google AdWords.
5. Is this solution right for me?
This solution is perfect for you if you:
- + Want to dominate the internet with your dealership’s brand and link to the most relevant page on your website
- + Want your ads to increase brand awareness and sell new inventory
- + Want more bang for your buck and avoid spending costs on specific vehicle copy and graphics
- + Want to rise above other cookie-cutter PPC solutions without breaking the bank
- + Use or have used an OEM recommended solution
- + Want to dominate your local search and nearby competition
- + Want to reduce your defect rate (AOR/PMA shoppers buying from your competitor)
- + Are focused on getting a lower Cost Per Acquisition / Cost Per Lead
- + You want to consolidate your AdWords, Video advertising, Retargeting, Display Advertising, and SEM to ONE solution
- + Want to drive relevant car buying terms directly to the best Search Results Page (SRP)
- + Want a custom, dealer-first approach to PPC Advertising
…and may not be right for you if you:
- + Are used to spending $40,000 or more on PPC Advertising
- + Want your ads to focus on used inventory (we recommend Craigslist)
- + Want to retarget website visitors with the exact vehicle they viewed on your site
- + Want a fully automated, cookie cutter solution that can often cost more and be less effective
- + Want a solution to just “check” the PPC box on your digital advertising strategy

Dealer’s Choice has proven to be the leading posting service with guaranteed results! They are a fast and reliable craigslist ad posting company. Dealer’s Choice keeps ahead of the competition with constantly adding new features to better advertise our inventory, and keep our ads on the first page of Craigslist. Customer service is superb as well. Definitely recommend this company!
Thanks, Jason Kim General Manager Toyota Town of Stockton
Best posting tool hands down. It’s easy to use only reqiures about 30 minutes of my time per month and we’re geting great results since we first signed up..
Dealers Choice is outperforming (lead generating resulting in sales) all others combined. In fact, the comparison is a little absurd. If we awarded an “MVP” (Most valuable Vendor) - award, Dealers Choice would have secured it.
