Day 30 SEO Car Dealer - Get on IMDB (Be a Practitioner)

Today's tip: when you hear an SEO tactic that works, go run it. This series is now an official IMDb title because of one podcast tip.

Automotive SEO Walks is now listed on IMDb. That's a real backlink from one of the most trusted domains on the internet pointing at this site, and it came from a two-minute dog walk video.

Where the tip came from

I heard James Dooley on a podcast say that if you run a podcast or a video series, you can submit it to IMDb as a title and pick up a backlink from it. I submitted this series roughly the same day I heard it. Approved. That's the whole play: hear the tactic, check it fits, do it while it's fresh.

You don't need a production budget to qualify. This series is a phone, a dog, and a two-minute walk (Day 26 is about starting one). A weekly lot-walk series or a dealer podcast can take the same route.

The gap is execution, not information

You watch these videos to learn. I listen to other people's podcasts for the same reason. Everything about car dealer SEO is free and public - all 30 of these days included. The dealers who move up in search aren't the ones with secret information. They're the ones who do the work.

So pick one tip you've heard this month and execute it this week. Get on Apple Maps (Day 2), write the real finance page (Day 29), update your GBP hours - any of them. Or hire someone like me to do it for you. That's the other honest option.
