titleDS List Building Steps

LIST 1 - Main Offering (Non-Product): Start by making a list of offerings based on information on the homepage. Examples: RV Financing, Motorcycle Financing, RV Service, RV Parts, etc…

  • You will also want to check out their page footer links to determine what some of the most important pages for the dealer are, for example, if they link to their used inventory, they likely care about it quite a bit. This can help inform your list by giving you more topics to add.

  • Repeat for all their main offerings, so if they are a multi-product dealer you would repeat the list for each major category. Such as ATVs, RVs, Boats, Scooters, Etc

** Using a loose 10% rule to determine what inventory you should include in your lists. You can achieve this by navigating to the all inventory page, removing any filters, and grabbing the whole number of units they have in their inventory, and multiplying the number by (.1).

LIST 2 - Condition Modifiers: List out the types of product conditions they offer such as “New”, “Used”, “Pre-Owned”, etc…

LIST 3 - Inventory Product Types: List out all the product types a dealer offers that exceed the 10% rule. Examples: 

LIST 4 - Product Type Subcategories: Within each product type, you will want to list all the products types with their subcategory, such as “Youth UTV” or “Super Sport Street Bike”

LIST 5 - Brands with Product: You will then want to list out all the brands they offer and the type of product each brand is associated with. For example, we don’t want to track “Polaris” we would want to track “Polaris Side x Side” and “Polaris ATV” instead.

LIST 6 - Brands w/o product: Just list all brands offered that meet the 10% rule. 

LIST 7 - Location Modifiers: List out the target location by city, city/state, state, and state abbreviation. Examples: “Mesa”, “Mesa AZ”, “Arizona”, “AZ”

LIST 8 - Intent Modifiers: List out intent keyword modifiers such as “for sale”, “Buy” “for rent”, “sales”, “near me”, “dealer”, “dealership”, “specials”, etc…

  • You do not want to include anything the dealer doesn’t offer. If they don’t do rental, don’t include it. 

** If there are common variations of terms such as: “Harley Motorcycles” and “Harley Bikes”, add as many as you can think of ***

How to Group

...

How we group keywords relates directly back to the pages on the site. In your inventory catalog, you will have product type pages and brand pages, and then under each of those, you will have further breakdowns depending on dealer inventory. The simple rule to ensure you’re putting a keyword in the correct group is “One Group, One Page”. Having one group for each page on the site helps the Juniper and content teams to know what keywords should be included in the content or on reporting.

...

Tags- One each for all brands and product types. It allows you to see stats for the whole brand or the whole product type in a roll-up report.
