Getting the most from your Claimed Listing

Here are some tips for making your listing as attractive as possible to our members/users:

  1. Feature a nice car on your main home and search pages. The more exotic or unusual the car, the better in this context.
  2. Add a testimonial at the beginning of your listing description. Better still if it’s one from a Petrolheads Welcome member.
  3. Mention good driving roads near your property and add a photo if you can. Our members like to see sweeping bends with great vistas. Have you got one?
  4. Add details of fuel stations, car-based attractions, etc. If there’s a nearby attraction (such as a museum) that’s not listed on our site, tell us and we’ll add it. It will also then show on your listing page as another reason to visit you.
  5. Encourage your visitors to rate/comment on your listing. That might result in your venue to being upgraded to our Gold standard.
