TIP: Want to know what Googlebot sees when it visits your site? Search for your URL, then click on Cache after your site in the results. A cached version of your site will open, now click on “Cached Text” and you’ll see what text (text is what Google cares about) Google sees. If the page is blank, or nearly blank, you’re site’s in trouble. (from http://cardealerseo.org/seo/flash-websites-seo/)
TIP: Want to know if a site’s inventory is indexed? There’s a couple of ways to find out. One, go to an inventory listing, copy the URL, then go to Google and search for “site:URL”, replacing “URL” with the URL you’re searching for (do not put a space between “site:” and the URL. It’s possible inventory pages are indexed, but the one you are searching for is not (if it’s new a new inventory item, for example), so it’s a good idea to also search for the top-level domain (like “site:http://www.domainname.com”) and see if any inventory pages come up.

TIP: Not too long ago dealers stopped using the word “used” in favor of “pre-owned” since it sounds much nicer to potential customers. The downside of this is that when people go to their favorite search engine they type in “used”, not “pre-owned”. To help your chances of gaining this traffic, focus on “used”. That doesn’t mean you can’t use “pre-owned”, but place “used” in areas where it counts more, like titles and heading tags, and don’t neglect it in the content.
