OMG! You have to go to LINGsCARS.com and check out their website. This is the absolute worst website you'll ever see! Be sure to click on the video play button and listen to what I thought would be their commercial, but it's just some girl singing (if you can call it that)!

Here's a link to an excellent infographic on Vertical Response's blog explaining the differences between jpeg (or jpg), gif and png, and when/where you should use them.

If you received this email blast from MINI, as I did, would you read through 868 words just to find out they're advertising a $199 a month lease special? Looks like the MINI corporate lawyers designed this email blast!

When did SEO (Search Engine Optimization) become more important than website design? Call me old-fashioned, but 10 years ago when us advertising professionals were helping website designers like Alex Merino at Pixel Motion design new car dealer websites, they were works of art, not like the websites of today that are designed purely for SEO purposes by some I.T. person with no design sense. You tell me, how can this Scion website be interesting to a potential car buyer with 75% of the home page taken up with SEO text? Is it REALLY necessary to say "Marlow Heights" 26 times on the home page? What happened to attractive car pictures? They've been replaced by SEO text!

What do you think? Send me your comments below if you agree or disagree with me. I'd be interested in hearing from you.
