Dealers: getting your inventory listed

Q: Dealers: getting your inventory listed

Listing is free. Your site needs a sitemap, schema.org Vehicle (or Car) structured data on each inventory page, and a robots.txt that allows EverylotBot. Send the domain through the support form and we add it to the crawl.

Listing is free. If your site publishes schema.org vehicle data on its inventory pages, has a sitemap, and does not block our crawler, we can index it. Send us the domain.

Every result links straight to your own listing page, so buyers land on your site, not ours. There is no fee, no sponsored placement and no lead form in between.

Requirements

A sitemap (linked from robots.txt or at /sitemap.xml) that includes your inventory pages.
schema.org Vehicle or Car structured data (JSON-LD) on each vehicle page: the same data Google's vehicle listings use. Most dealer website platforms emit it already.
robots.txt that does not disallow EverylotBot, and no bot challenge on public pages. We never solve challenges or work around a block; see the crawler policy.

How to ask

Send your domain through the support form under "I am a dealer". We probe the site, and if it qualifies it joins the crawl the same day. Your listings appear as they are read, typically within a day.

Load on your site

At most a few pages per minute, at least two seconds apart, with conditional requests so unchanged pages return a cheap 304. A 300-car lot costs about 300 requests a day. Set a Crawl-delay in robots.txt to slow it further.
