I am impressed! That’s what I could say when I was actually checking out couple of more automobile websites. You must be wondering why I am now a days after automobile websites and blogs, isn’t it? As I am not limited to only this blog in making money online niche, I have many more blogs developed or coming up in finance, auto, health, entertainment niches; and it’s important that when you have a full fledge blog, you should keep on growing other small blogs slowly to mitigate the risk of anything unfortunate happening with your main blog.
So why I was impressed? Looking at the span of this website that is been developed by a webmaster like me and moreover that website is dealing directly with buying and selling of used cars online. Isn’t it something that is an achievement for the webmaster. I could get nothing but inspiration out of it, believe me!
There is lot to talk about the figures about this website. 600+ car dealers are available to help you out to choose the right car you are looking for. Most of the time, the brand new cars are beyond our budgets and at such time, going for cheap used cars will be the most clever approach. The way Cars are being used and thrown away in the States, if you are going to do the same thing, why not to invest low in the car in first place and sell it off later to the same car dealer after couple of years with little less price. This can be done relatively easier if you are dealing with the car dealer and not the individual as the car dealers have someone else to buy it next time unlike the individual. Well, when you have 600+ car dealers to serve you in there, there is guaranteed variety out there. I am cent percent sure that if you are going to buy used cars and you see 32920 cars for sale, you would end up buying one at the end of the day.
Practically, it’s very difficult for someone [unless he is a rich business personality or born with golden spoon in mouth] to buy brand new cars in brands like Mercedes, BMW. But if you see, buying the used cars in these brands is relatively much affordable on this eCarJunction.com website.
Looking at the features provided by the website, searching a car has been made so easy, that user has to provide only make, model and maximum price in his mind and the search result will come up with details of cars such as the thumbnail image of the car, facilities in the car, seller details and price. The thumbnail image certainly helps to speed up the selection and that also increased the faith in buyer’s mind. It’s a proven marketing practice that when the buyer sees the product with his own eyes, he tends to believe it more. And that’s why I am very happy to see the search result page on this car selling website.
The website has been well supported by ecarjunction blog with latest update in automotive industry with proper link backs to the car categories on the main website. This I would say that best combination of any professional website. The main website should be supported by the blogs that are well known for getting indexed in search engines faster than the static websites, but provide indirect benefits to the main website.
There are couple of things that can be improved though:
- I would suggest to avoid using google adsense ads for top 728×90 banner. Many a times I was shown an ad related to artists and that not being relevant with the type of users of this website, webmaster can think of eBay motors’ affiliate program for better monetization. Anyways, if after clicking the ad user is going to go away from the website, why not to send him to a website that can be not only useful to him but will also help webmaster to monetize the website well.
- The red colour text right in front does not go well with the site design. So it can be considered while revamping the site design in future.
- This website lacks the use of favicon or a small logo [other than header image] that can be used as identity of this website. This would help in finding this website from bookmarks and easy to refer to.
While thinking about the red text, I realized in couple of minutes that the user base of this website might not be techie always and it’s important to attract their attention to the basic features. I still suggest to change the colour may be to off beat red than the bold red. But overall, my experience was very good while browsing this used cars website. I only can say that I am inspired!
