The shortest path to better AI search presence
Readable turns missed buyer questions into pages AI can trust, clearer evidence buyers can verify, and comparison answers that make it easier for AI tools to recommend you.
Close the Pre-purchase Inspection gap before competitors keep winning the recommendation.: Buyers are asking about Pre-purchase Inspection, but your homepage barely explains it. AI answers currently connect Gumtree more strongly with that need.
Create dedicated comparison pages positioning Carma against Carsales for budget buyers and private sellers, emphasizing lower fees and transparent pricing to capture the 'affordable used cars' query segment currently dominated by Carsales-Gumtree recommendations
Establish Carma as a cited source for vehicle history verification and pre-purchase data alongside RedBook; develop content linking Carma's vehicle history reports to the 'service history verification' and 'pre-purchase inspection' attributes mentioned in 4 buyer queries but currently unattributed to any platform
Optimize Carma's presence in regional and price-range comparison pages (Sydney under $15k, Brisbane warranties, Perth fuel-efficient) by creating location-specific comparison content that positions Carma's peer-to-peer model as an alternative to dealer-heavy Carsales in these high-intent buyer scenarios
Carsales appears in 5 of 11 queries while Carma appears in only 4; Carma is completely absent from all 5 buyer intent queries (price ranges, vehicle models, warranty, fuel efficiency, private sales guidance)
