Here is the inaugural list and corresponding links to the top ten blog posts this week from across the Internet. Each week on Friday afternoon we compile the best automotive marketing information all in one place.

We have taken the time to make sure you read the most important posts to help you grow your dealership’s Internet business without having to check 25 websites. Each week we will search out the most relevant and useful information and bring it direct to you right here.

This was a must read post by Ralph Paglia about how to create and leverage a press release marketing strategy for your dealership. http://bit.ly/d3j9gn

I have always been big about reporting and Joe Pistell wrote up this great article about how you can now create a cool visual display of your shoppers http://bit.ly/ciwtuR

If you missed Joe Webb at Digital Dealer you missed one great workshop. Joe’s highly interactive workshop was full of great information surrounded by humor. Here is just one of the videos he showed during the workshop. http://bit.ly/8Z01w4

After reading this blog by Larry Bruce it really got me thinking so I definitely wanted to share it. http://bit.ly/cA1NH3

David Page who is actually a competitor of mine wrote this piece about dealer chat that I felt I should share. It has a couple good points that are worth mentioning especially if you are still considering using chat in general. http://bit.ly/aUxQiN

This blog post by Jeff Kershner was a stand out this week. http://bit.ly/d3CrbK

I met Larry Barditch at the most recent Digital Dealer show. He has only been in the car business for less than a year but is really doing something down there in Kendall. We can all learn something from Larry who is thinking outside the box. http://bit.ly/dnDj5J

Are you smarter than the Internet? Keith Shetterly lays down a great analogy http://bit.ly/bkEaTb

David Kain spent a little time at the ActivEngage booth at Digital Dealer 8 learning about our live analytics and talks about how dealerships can leverage this to sell more vehicles. http://bit.ly/aBqkLA

If you are not following Tony H from Zappos you are missing one of the smartest guys on the planet right now. Here is a link to his blog. http://bit.ly/98LWRX
