Carrentals.co.uk Crowned King As Best in Natural Search for Car Hire

The very popular car hire comparison site Carrentals.co.uk has now topped the natural search ranking for car hire search terms in September. The award winning website was able to bring in 54 percent of the 1.5 million car hire related searches performed in September by being ranked number one for 147 of the 3,800 keywords analyzed by the leading independent search engine marketing agency, Greenlight.

Greenlight’s report went on to show that Carrentals.co.uk has also been able to top, not only domestic rankings, but worldwide rankings as well. This car hire website was also able to report positive results for this difficult summer, showing a 38 percent year on year increase in its bookings. This, of course, lead to a 72 percent increase in revenue.

Gareth Robinson, the managing director for Carrentals.co.uk, said “Greenlight’s report highlights the strength of our position online, with our expertise in search engine optimization positioning us at the forefront of the market. Despite the recession, 2009 has been a great year for us, with our sales outstripping targets across the board.”

Gareth went on to say, “Our success underlies the quality of service we offer, as unlike many other price comparators, our CPA approach ensures that we are able to offer both rental companies and customers a better deal, with suppliers benefiting from a fairer, more cost-effective service with no pay-per-click and customers able to choose from low prices from a wider selection of providers.

“We’re very proud of the results we have achieved to date, but know that there is still far more potential in the market and we will be looking to further develop our services going into 2010 to help strengthen our existing position.”

Carrentals.co.uk has been able to achieve success in jut six years and has won many awards over the past few years to prove it. The site compares car hire deals at 50 rental companies in over 9,000 locations.
