Webhosting for
Used Car Dealers
In most cases companies have
hosting products for one reason, because they can make money and
Used Car Dealers are a great place to make money because they
typically spend so much of it on advertising.
But for me, cars are a passion.
I build custom cars, collect classic cars and my daily driver is
40 years old. So I love classic cars in every way. They way they
make me feel, the passion for the workmanship, the way they drive
and the nostalgia. I have owned cars from the 20's to the 80's,
sports cars, sedans, dragsters and even the odd Vega and Pinto
just for fun.
So when I started developing
software for used car dealers it was not out of greed or a desire
to make money, it was because many of my friends sold cars and
needed something they could use for their businesses.
I even built buzztrader.com to sell classic cars and quickly had over a
million visitors a month. The only problem I had was spending
too much time looking and dreaming about buying cars and not
enough time developing websites and software. That is a
hazard of doing something that you love.
The really cool part was that
I got to work with all the car classic car dealers and make money
while doing it. So for me the money was a bonus and as a result
websites for used car dealers it is a big part of our website
hosting business.
When I build a
website it is not coming from a website designers perspective, it
is coming from a car builders perspective.
When I add a photo of a welder
to a page it give me a rush because I think about being in the
garage building a custom frame for my dragster or fitting a 700Hp V8 in my Fiat. I feel the the passion for the business and have a
much different perspective than most software developers or
website designers.
Since a big part of my life
before the Internet was spent in the automotive industry
including going to college for automotive engineering it seemed
like a logical choice to address website for used car dealers.
The original focus was on
classic cars, those pre 1973 models that are so avidly collected.
I created a solution that allowed dealers to quickly list cars
and manage online inventory quickly and affordbly.
While we could charge $200 a
month like or competitors but at the $20 a month we do charge we have a bigger market and more value for the
money.
So that makes hosting car
dealer websites on pageBuzz.com cheaper plus we understand your
business better than our competitors, because I spent my whole
life being part of it. And I am still part of it working from my
desk and creating the tools that car dealers need to manage
websites.

easy it is to manage your used car lot on the web.
Inventory Manager
I think the vehicle inventory
manager is about one of the easiest tools we have. Where there
are some advanced features for the most part it is just like
adding a vehicle to Ebay, Autotrader or any other website. Just
select the make, model, write a description and upload up to 25
photos of the vehicle.
On the management side you
have easy to use galleries with links to modify, change prices,
photos and information. On the user side, they can search
vehicles, sort by price, year or manufacturer,
For the smaller car lots
having easy point and click tools make managing a website simple.
No webmaster, no complex or expensive software, just go online,
and do what you do on any other website, except on this one, it
is yours.
AutoTrader Export
Many dealers use outside sites
like autotrader.com or cars.com to advertise in addition to their
website. Rather than loading inventory on all websites we have an
export feature which gives you one datafile that can be uploaded
and import 200 cars at one time from your website over to
autotrader.com.
We also support newer
standards like RSS which allows users or websites such as
aggregators to access your vehicle inventory in real time to get
updated images, information and pricing.
Drag & Drop Website Editor
Then we have the standard
tools like the Drag & Drop page editor that allow you to make
pages outside the gallery of vehicles. Pages like contact
information, sales people or just information about getting loans
and financing.
The key to a successful
website is having information. Large established dealers can live
on their reputation but smaller dealers need to add additional
pages and content to make people comfortable with the idea of
purchasing from them.
pageBuzz is unique in the
automotive hosting market in that we have the tools to develop
fully developed businesses online and not just car dealers.
While we don't offer marketing
packages and expensive upsells most dealers don't need it anyway.
They don't need a social media campaign, or targeted search
engine marketing with paid ads. They simply need a website to
show the vehicles that have for sale.
So unlike our competitors, we
wont be trying to upsell you every time you call. We just
concentrate on helping you and making sure you are happy with
what we do provide.
We Have Grown Over
The Years
We have not only hosted
website for car dealers we have become great at doing it. We work
with the guys you see on TV, on the car shows, car auctions and
specials. We have found a niche in the business and have become a
leader in the industry. Our car dealers are successful and active
in the car market because they have embraced the online tools we
have created for them. They can be at an auction 500 miles from
their lot and take pictures and add the vehicle to their website
as soon as they buy it. Often selling it before it even gets
delivered to their lot.
It is all about speed,
efficiency and support. When my dealers call, we understand them.
We don't try to sell them more services or products. Although I
have bought a few cars from them over the years.
But being able to manage a
simple website with 20, 30 or even 200 vehicles is priceless. But
for you, today only, you can have this one owner, low mile
website for $20.
