When Australians think auto content, they think carsales


In the increasingly complex purchasing journey, consumers are seeking trusted, timely information to guide their decisions. According to the latest Ipsos’ Automotive Buyer Journey research, car review and comparison sites play a pivotal role, influencing buyers from the initial research phase through to purchase1. As Australia’s most important site for car reviews2, carsales delivers tailored advice that resonates with car shoppers, helping them shortlist options and make informed choices. With Editorial Boost, brands can harness this consumer trust by amplifying their most impactful content, turning awareness into action.

How Editorial Boost works

With Editorial Boost, there’s no need for extra creative production or complex campaign setup. Utilising carsales’ Influence Index within self-serve ad manager, Ignition, users can identify the editorial articles that have driven consumer engagement for your brand. Once selected, these articles are natively promoted on carsales, boosting visibility and driving action. Once set-up, the Ignition dashboard offers advertisers full transparency, with awareness and consideration metrics like click-through rates, article views, and listing interactions all set to be available in the near future.

Unlock your brand's potential

Why should your brand consider Editorial Boost? Here’s what sets it apart:

  • No Creative Hassles: Forget the extra work—Editorial Boost amplifies existing content without the need for new assets.
  • Targeted by Data: The Influence Index uses past consumer behaviour to ensure the articles you boost are those most likely to drive action.
  • See the Results: The Ignition dashboard keeps everything trackable, offering data on article views, listing interactions, and more, so you know exactly how your content is performing.

A proven example: Jeep

Take Jeep, for example. In early 2024, Jeep’s editorial article was boosted using Editorial Boost. The results were impressive—consumers who read the article were 8.0x more likely to search for Jeep vehicles, 14.4x more likely to view listings, and 18.5x more likely to submit a lead3. This case study highlights how amplifying editorial content can lead to significant consumer actions.
