Motomatch approached Ruby Digital to assist the brand in becoming a market leader in the online car sales (new and used) industry. In addition, their objectives were to generate subscription leads from dealerships, attract customers to the platform, as well as increase overall organic brand awareness and online presence.
When Motomatch came to us, they were experiencing low organic site traffic and low SERP (Search Engine Results Page) rankings due to the high competition of the motor vehicle industry and needed to generate more leads from consumers using the platform and dealerships subscribing.
While their offering was a unique venture in the South African market, very few people were aware of the brand and its unique selling points (USP).
The competitive nature of the motor vehicle industry requires a very strategic approach. Understanding this, we created an organic strategy centered on improving the ranking of keywords related to used vehicle brands and creating tools relevant to the motor vehicle industry, including a free car valuation tool.
Motomatch has the business goal of driving consumers to buy and sell vehicles online through their platform and getting dealers to sign up through a paid subscription. The primary organic goal of our strategy was to rank Motomatch on page 1 of Google for buy and sell car keywords. A secondary organic goal was to rank Motomatch on page 1 for buy and sell branded car terms (e.g., Toyota for Sale). Our limitations are that competition for buy and sell keywords is very high, which results in achieving high rankings being a slower process.
“Since we have been with the Ruby Digital team, we have seen consistent growth in our business. The team created an organic SEO strategy to improve our website’s rankings for vehicle-related keywords, and implemented targeted Google Ad campaigns which were constantly optimized to increase the click-through rate and conversions. On the social media side, our brand awareness and conversions have increased considerably, resulting in more dealer signups and customer vehicle listings. On average, we see about a 480% increase in conversions year on year. The team is knowledgeable, professional, patient and always willing to help. We highly recommend Ruby Digital for your digital marketing!”
