5 Automotive Review Sites Your Dealership Needs to be on in 2020

Reviews are a big way to drive potential customers to your dealership. Online reviews have taken over as one of the most important factors a car shopper looks into when making a buying decision. If your dealership doesn't stand out with stellar reviews, you may quickly be overlooked and send your customer down the road to your competition. There are many generic and auto centered review sites out there and BlueJay Reviews is featuring the top 5 auto review sites you need to be on in 2020.

1. Edmunds

Edmunds contains vehicle listings all over the United States. The site helps customers buy cars, sell cars, read tips for purchase, and appraise their own vehicles.

2. Cars.com

Cars.com is one of the biggest automotive listing sites on the Internet. The site helps customers buy cars, sell cars, and find auto body shops.

3. DealerRater

DealerRater is another industry-specific site that was created specifically for dealerships (as you could probably guess). 12 million people use the site to find the right dealership for them. Make sure that you’re there to convert.

4. CarGurus

CarGurus helps car buyers to find better deals through data analytics. The site tells customers when they’re getting a fair price or paying too much. One of the factors that the site takes into account is Dealer’s Reputation, making it important for you to collect more customer reviews.

5. Carwise

Carwise helps customers get car repair estimates, find auto repair shops, and schedule appointments.


Automotive review sites are a popular destination for someone who is searching to buy a vehicle. The highest rated factor a potential buyer looks into is vehicle selection (for a used buyer) is vehicle selection. If your dealership doesn't have the vehicle they want in stock, they likely won't be frequenting your dealership. If your dealership and a few others have their dream ride in stock, you need your dealership to stand out among the competition. Online reputation management is one of the most effective ways for your dealership to stand out. A higher online review rating will likely get your dealership featured above your competitors not only on auto related review sites, but generic online searches, as well!

Now that you know why the online reputation of your dealership is so important for drawing in new customers, you're ready to focus on your online reputation management strategy in 2020! Our online reputation management service works strategically to help your dealership gather new reviews, monitor online reviews, and respond to reviews...all from one easy to use online dashboard!
