Google Integrates Vehicle Listing Structured Data for Car Dealership

Are you running a car dealership in the US and trying to add new car listings? Google has released its ‘vehicle listing structured data’ which allows you to add your new car listings to the already existing data on Google. 

But why? Yes, we asked the same question.

What is the need of this update? 

Apparently, Google said that with this update it becomes easier for the dealers to update their new car listings on Google which provides better visibility in the search results and ultimately more benefit to your business. 

Furthermore, Google has also said that the conventional way of listing vehicles via the vehicle listing partner portal is still functional but with new car listing structured date it helps to update the data more efficiently.  

What else Google said?

While using vehicle listing markup is a relatively easy way to maintain structured data for car dealerships, however, it becomes difficult for Google to keep track of changes going on in the websites and since there is no one-on-one way to help the process. 

The detailed process is given below if you wish to add your vehicle listings on Google. 

  • First of all the dealership must have a verified Business Profile on Google in the given region (US and US territories).

  • This business profile should have the place type as a vehicle dealer

  • Include vehicles only from the sale inventory directly from the dealership. 

  • Any vehicles from private or individual sellers are not allowed. 

  • Include vehicles that are for sale only in US or US territories. 

The most important point to note here is that this feature is only available in US or US territories at this point.
