Day 11 Car Dealer SEO tip — Don’t Ignore BING! Get your dealership listed and here’s WHY!

More Automotive SEO All Daily Tips

Today's tip: claim your Bing Places listing by importing it straight from Google.

Nobody uses Bing. I don't either - and my business is on there. Your dealership needs to be too, and it takes about two minutes.

Why Bing matters if nobody searches on it

Microsoft, Yelp, and ChatGPT are stacking together the same way your website, vAuto, and Glow3D stack - each one does its piece and the combination is stronger than any of them alone. Bing brings maps and listing data. Yelp brings the directory and reviews. ChatGPT is the brain reading it all. (Yelp's side of this was Day 5.)

Getting on Bing Places puts your dealership inside that ecosystem: Bing search, Yahoo, and the AI answers buyers are now asking instead of searching.

The two-minute setup

  • Go to bingplaces.com.
  • Sign in with the Google account that owns your Google Business Profile.
  • Choose import from Google and pick your dealership.
  • Everything you already filled out on Google copies over, and the two stay synced.

That's it. Most dealers still haven't done it, which is exactly why it's worth doing. One more marble in the jar (that was Day 6).
