The dealer registration, is for dealers wishing to create an account in car.gr, so that can publish an unlimited number of classifieds (cars, motorcycles, boats, commercial vehicles, parts, bicycles, etc.).

With the dealer account activation, the dealer acquires a personal webpage with all of his classifieds at username.car.gr and car.gr/username and has many advantages in comparison with individuals and ordinary users as well.

Business registration is created by professionals operating in a specific market or around it (eg garages, car wash, accessories importers, dealerships, KTEO etc.) and do not want to publish an unlimited number of classifieds or acquire a personal webpage, however they want to be included in the dynamic business catalogue of car.gr, in order to be found by those who are interested in the services or products they offer.

However, if you have other activities except trade like a garage, you must also register yourself in the business catalogue and fill your additional activities.

Your classified is immediately published after the successful posting. In case you are searching for your classified and it does not appear in the results, make sure that the search criteria are the same as those you entered in your classified details.

Clicksare how many clicked on your classified. They showed more interest than in "Views".

Large clear photos play a major role in the sale. If they are well taken photos and show e.g. the whole vehicle, the car interior and the engine, you earn the buyers confidence.
