Having dealt with various vendors over the last couple months the interactions are comical, but they really show how short sighted the dealers and vendors really are in the Internet Marketing Arena. For the monthly fee that these vendors are charging I could have a site designed and host it for a year and if I wanted to be real crafty about it I could have one designed and just knock it off for the other keywords I wish to go after.

I really can’t say that I live up to that goal but I am working on it and with the huge shifts taking place online today car dealers need to start listening to their customers instead of telling them what to do. Your customers are talking about you at work, church, the local bar and now they are talking about you online and how you handle this can make or break your online reputation.

When I first started this blog I did a dissertation about the leaks in online classifieds and the more I look around at the different automotive affiliate programs and what others are doing with personal blogs used as lead generation tools it is time to revisit leaks again.
