DealerRater Reviews on Google - What Happened? A Quick Q & A

Hey Mark B,

I don't see what you are getting at with the parallel between Reynolds accounting, Google and DealerRater. Are you saying that it is an either/or situation? Can you clarify your comment or question? I admit that I can be slow, but I am just not following you.

One thing I can tell you for sure is that the DealerRater team doesn't train an either/or strategy, the new PUSH feature serves as evidence to that. The principles we teach are much more holistic in terms of ORM. You need to be aware of everything so that you can actively leverage the things that are marketable to improve lead to show and closing ratios.
 
Phil can you call me about what you wrote...I'm doing a project creating a iPad application as a Kiosk fpr customers to write a review as they exit the dealership.  I would like to populate Google et el with these reviews.  Any help would be great.  let's talk.  603.234.4859  Regan McCarthy

Google's removal of third-party reviews from Google Places prompted DealerRefresh founder Jeff Kershner to interview DealerRater's VP of Business Development about the impact on dealers who had concentrated review efforts on a single platform. The thread highlights the importance of diversifying review strategies across multiple sites, with DealerRater promoting its new PUSH feature to help distribute reviews more broadly. A side debate emerges over whether mass-distributing reviews to thousands of low-authority sites offers real value, with Kershner pushing back in favor of quality traffic and customer engagement over pure SERP saturation.
