Auto Dealers are recognizing the immense potential that lies in Internet marketing, continuing to shift more of their overall advertising budget into the online market.
Internet advertising revenues continue to break records with $3.9 billion being spent in the first quarter of 2006, a 38 percent increase over Q1 2005 at $2.8 billion (Interactive Advertising Bureau, May 2006). Many car dealers are part of this surge in online advertising, and are focusing on moving away from traditional forms of advertising such as television, radio and newspapers, according to a recent report released by the National Automobile Dealers Association.
Internet advertising has gone from being non existent for car dealers in 1995, to the average dealer spending nearly 10 percent of their advertising budget on paid search and other online marketing programs in 2005, up from 6.7 percent in 2004. The average car dealer spent $36,000 on Internet advertising in 2005, and larger dealers that sell over 750 new vehicles each year spent approximately $69,000.
The Internet has become a powerful tool in extending the reach of other mediums (see “The Internet: A Top Contender in the Mass Media Market“), and is also having considerable impact in shaping consumers offline spending patterns (see “Canadian E-Commerce Market Set to Boom“).
Greg Stuart, CEO, Interactive Advertising Bureau comments, “The steady growth of online advertising is a clear indication that marketers continue to believe in the opportunities and effectiveness that this medium delivers in reaching and engaging their consumers.”

Don’t Waste Your Money on Over-Priced Ebooks
Have you purchased any high priced ebooks recently? Have you noticed all the online gurus are pumping out monsterous sized ebooks, packed with filler, and they’re selling them for $97!
The vast majority of these bloated ebooks would be less than a dozen pages if you removed all the useless fluff!
Not too long ago, I purchased a high priced ebook from a well-known AdSense expert who claims to make thirty thousand dollars a month from AdSense. I spent hours reading thru all the garbage to find the only wisdom there was to fool people into thinking the ads were part of your site navigation links.
This was a case of taking ten pages worth of info and blowing it up to nearly 200 pages just to give the illusion of value! If this ebook was cleaned of all the unrequired garbage, it would shrink to less than one tenth its current size, but that wouldn’t sell.
Recently, a new generation of ebooks has appeared – ebooks without all that extra baggage that’s only there to make you think you’re getting value. Straight and simple information, quickly explained so you can make use of it without wasting a lot of time sorting thru junk pages. Ebooks that are really worth the price. High value, yet cheap prices.
You want cheap? How does $7 sound to you?
