About

Deals uploaded to Internet portals

Internet based car portals have made a big impact on the industry in the last few years and are mainly used for their multi listing facilities and their ability to drive much traffic to their sites to generate leads.

CALAS has the ability to automatically upload your deals to these internet portal sites. The whole process is fully automated and does not require any human intervention whatsoever.

The portals shown on the tabs to the right are amongst those with current automatic upload facilities built into CALAS. Others are often in development.

Costs

Although the portals charge a monthly fee, being a CALAS user there is no charge for the automatic upload of deals from CALAS to the portal of your choice.

Please contact the portals directly for details of their charges.

The obvious advantage to CALAS users of the automated portal uploads is that it is not necessary to use any portal specific software to upload the deals which would involve entering the same data more than once, also allowing you to have more deals being advertised and the many hours that this process saves.

BuyYourCar.co.uk

BuyYourCar.co.uk is the fastest growing car sales website in the UK, and the place to advertise lease & contract hire offers for astute brokers.

Launched in August 2006 the site took less than two years to become a Top 10 car sales sites in the UK according to Hitwise. Since then the site has continued to grow and establish itself as a key marketing tool for many dealers and brokers across the UK.

The BuyYourCar.co.uk site is a 'one-stop-shop' for the car buyer in the UK, enabling visitors to search for New, Used and Lease cars. Attracting over 25,000 unique daily visitors (over 750,000 users a month), the site provides a very cost effective form of advertising for brokers who want to advertise their lease and contract hire deals on the internet.

No long-term contract to tie you in.

BuyYourCar.co.uk is so confident that the site will generate a positive return on investment for any broker advertising on the site, that there are no long-term contracts. Brokers advertise on the site on a ‘month-by-month’ basis, and at any time the broker can decide to stop advertising. However, BuyYourCar.co.uk is confident that the number of enquiries generated for brokers will keep them on the site. After all, the reason you advertise is to generate enquiries – and this is what a site should be judged on; quality enquiries from genuine buyers. From that point it’s up to you, the broker, to do what you do best and convert the enquiry into a sale.

No Hidden Costs

Only satisfied brokers advertise on the BuyYourCar.co.uk site. The cost to advertise is £300 a month. This is for any number of car and van lease and contract hire deals. There are no hidden costs, everyone pays the same amount and gets a fair crack of the whip. BuyYourCar.co.uk will not allow brokers to place offers on the site that they can’t fulfil, as this only upsets the customer and other brokers. BuyYourCar.co.uk believes in making it fair to all.

What Car? heritage

Car buying is more complex than ever: there are now more sectors, more models, more ways to pay and more places to buy than ever before. In this confusing arena, What Car? is unrivalled as the best source of buying advice for UK motorists. Our success is built upon core brand values of integrity, impartiality, independence and expert advice, which is why so many buyers turn to What Car? each month for honest, dependable advice.

In recent years, What Car? has rapidly evolved to meet reader needs and our influence extends beyond our award-winning website and three monthly magazines to mobile and TV channels.

What Car?

Our website brings together everything that we know about cars, car buying, motoring retail and issues facing the motorist. Packed full of crucial information, expert opinion, reader verdicts and comprehensive data, our monthly audience of over 1 million unique users provides an incomparable audience of ‘in market’ consumers for all commercial partners. In fact, in 2008 we saw over 11.6 million unique users.

Historically, whatcar.com has been used for research only; with our new website we will deliver as fulfilling a retail experience for the user as we currently do for research. We have achieved this through contextual linking our retail products such as used cars into the review pages of whatcar.com to deliver users seamlessly from the research phase into the purchasing phase of the car buying process.

Information from a trusted resource like What Car? gives the consumer confidence to buy, which in turn delivers retail clients qualified leads and ultimately generates new and used car sales and contract hire and leasing deals.

The site now features a full road test for every edition of every new car on sale in Britain, as well as over 500 of the country’s favourite used cars - all intuitively linked to the crucial facts and figures in the easy-to-understand style that has become our trademark. Through better intra-linking of our content we will deliver every user more relevant information much quicker. By qualifying our users’ needs in more detail we will be generating more and better qualified car buyers to companies such as yours.

We believe this is the biggest change to whatcar.com since we launched the website over 10 years ago and we believe this will radically alter how the retail market use the internet in order to target real car buyers.
