Web design for
car dealerships in Markham.
This page is the Markham slice of a survey of 40 dealerships — every listing on Google Maps, every website opened by hand. 0 of the 33 sites do not work on a phone.
Those 40 listings were checked one at a time. 0 of the 33 sites came through with nothing wrong; the rest had at least one of the problems above.
What they are built on
55% of them run
the same platform.
We identified 4 different platforms behind the 33 sites in Markham. WordPress accounts for 18 of them. 1 sit on a free or entry-level builder — a fair reading of how much the business has put into being found.
What actually breaks
No main heading on the page
on 14 of them.
We recorded every fault we could see on the 33 Markham sites. The one that turns up most is no main heading on the page — 14 of them. Next is copyright line years out of date on 13, then no enquiry form anywhere on the site on 9.
A site here that fixes no main heading on the page alone is already ahead of 14 local competitors on that count. That is the whole argument for doing the dull parts first.
Who you are up against
728 reviews
from the top five.
The five most-reviewed car dealerships in Markham hold 7,277, 5,518, 4,157, 1,130, 795. The middle of the field sits at 67, the lower quarter below 17 and the upper quarter above 580. 12 of the 40 are past 100 reviews and 6 hold a rating of 4.9 or better.
Markham holds 40 of the 1,407 dealerships we found across the GTA, which ranks it 11th among the 26 places we surveyed. Review counts are not comparable between trades, so none of this means anything outside car dealerships.

Questions
The usual questions.
How many car dealerships are there in Markham?
40 listings, of which 0 have a website with nothing technically wrong with it. The remaining 40 are either missing a site, running a broken one, or running one with at least one fault we could see from outside.
How many Google reviews do I need to compete in Markham?
To be average in Markham you need 67. To be in the top quarter you need more than 580. To be visible next to the busiest car dealership here you would need 7,277, which took them years. 6 of the 40 already hold a 4.9 rating, so the rating is not what separates them.
What does a website for a car dealership in Markham cost?
Between $590 and $3,900 depending on the size of the practice and how many services need their own page, paid after the site is built and you have seen it. Hosting, edits, your Google Business Profile and ongoing SEO run $129 to $990 a month, cancellable any month.
Before you decide anything
Find out whether
you have a problem.
Most people asking about a rebuild do not need one. The free check opens your site, looks at how it behaves on a phone, whether it is secure and how old the page is, and tells you which of those apply to you.
Start with a
straight answer.
Describe the business and where it works. We come back with what we would change, what it would cost and how long it takes — or with a reason not to bother.
