Car dealership websites for dealers who want to be South Africa's #1
Most dealer websites are built by generalist agencies that have never sold a car in their life. They hand you a template, slap your logo on it, and call it done. Your stock looks dated, your rankings suffer, and the buyer who Googled you quietly visits the dealer who looked legit.
We build dealership websites and the systems behind them, from the ground up. Every page written for SEO. Every design decision made to convert. Proven on the lot with Dart Motors and Autocrat, not practised on you.
What you get
What's included in every dealership website we build
SEO stock & service pages
Every page written and optimised for the cars and the towns buyers are actually searching, so Google sends them to you.
Custom showroom design
A premium design built from scratch around your dealership, not a template with your logo slapped on.
Mobile-first & fast
Loads instantly on a phone, where your buyers are, and where Google rewards you with rankings.
WhatsApp lead capture
One-tap WhatsApp on every car, plus contact forms and click-to-call, so no enquiry ever dies at 8pm.
A dealership website your competitors will spend the next year trying to catch up to.
The system, in plain sight
Win the 92% of buyers who decide online
Most car buyers shortlist their dealer online before they ever phone you. We build the website, the tracking and the systems that get you on that shortlist and turn it into sales, the same machine that runs Dart Motors today.

One screen, whole dealership
Every lead, every car, every rand, on one screen
The website is your front door. Behind it we build the command centre: every lead from every source, your stock, your marketing and your finance book, funnelled into one place. Come back from two weeks away, sit down for three minutes, and know exactly where the business stands.
AutoTrader
Your listings and leads from the platform that holds the market, pulled into a system you own.
Your website
Every enquiry and teardown request, captured the second it lands.
Ads & marketing
Every click from Meta and Google, tracked through to the sale.
Walk-ins & calls
Logged in one place, so no lead ever lives on someone's phone.
One command centre
Every lead, every finance application, every car and every rand, in one live dashboard you own. This is what Dart Motors runs on today.
Every lead, one list
From every source above, in a single list you actually work, not four different phones.
Every finance application
From application to approval to payment, on software instead of a paper book.
Every car on the floor
What's selling, what's ageing, and which units are quietly eating holding cost.
What to buy next
See what's actually moving in your area, so you stock the winners instead of guessing.
The finance book, live
Who owes what, what each car really earned, and who's falling behind, in real time.
Every rand, end to end
Advert to enquiry to sale to profit. No black box, no gut feel.
The process
How we build your dealership website
Teardown
We pull up your current site live, show you exactly where buyers slip away, and put a rand figure on the leak. Yours to keep, no obligation.
Design
We design your showroom first and you approve it before we build a thing. No surprises, no back and forth. Just a site you're proud to show off.
Build
Every stock page, every detail page, built, written and wired for search and conversion. Your stock feeds itself. Nothing gets skipped.
Launch
Full quality check before anything goes live. When we launch it's ready: fast, clean, and built to put you on the shortlist.

The dealer's man. Jared runs the teardowns, the strategy and the day-to-day, so you always have a real person who knows your business on the other end.
