Claim Your space in The Directory & reach millions of our readers
Let's face it, all that really matters when you decide where to advertise your business is how many people will see your advert, who are they and how much does it cost. There's no point advertising in free directories - they don't have any real visitors. Cars UK does - over 2 million of them!
And that's because we're a News site with fresh news, reviews and content every single day.

The Quick Version
- We've got 2 million readers
- They're not just car nuts, they buy & use loads of 'stuff' - a perfect opportunity for any business.
- A whole page in the Directory costs about the same as a daily newspaper.
- Take a National Listing and you'll also get 10,000 adverts a month on the Cars UK site as well as a whole page in The Directory.
- Probably the best value online advertising in the UK

Who are Cars UK?
Founded in 2008, Cars UK has grown to be probably the largest independent car news and reviews site in the UK. Called 'The Petrolhead's favourite website' by the Guardian, we seek to bring a very subjective viewpoint to the latest Car News from around the world.
How many could see your business page in The Directory?
What are the 'Stats'* for Cars UK?
- 40,000 Stories read a day
- 4,500 visitors a day from Google Search
- 13,000 pages indexed by Google every day
- Cars UK is a Google News Publisher
There have been over 2 million unique visitors to Cars UK in the last year, and every one of those who come for the latest Car News, Reviews and Comment will be able to search for your business by name, category or location; even narrowing down their search by distance from a postcode. You'll be very easy to find, and we promote The Directory on every page of Cars UK.
Who are Cars UK readers?
According to Google, Cars UK readers are better educated than the average and better paid. Naturally, we think they're a terrific bunch and would make great customers for your business!
So whether your business is car related, health and beauty, travel and accommodation, food and drink or any number of businesses our discerning readers would enjoy seeing, a page in The Directory is a great choice.
But mine isn't a car related business. What's the point?
You probably won't be surprised to learn that visitors to car sites do an awful lot more than look at the latest petrolhead news. In fact, research by the IABUK (Internet Advertising Bureau UK) shows that our well educated and well paid readers look for far more than just the latest car news when they're online.
Just some of the sites visitors to Cars UK will look for include:
- Sports & Hobbies
- Financial Services
- Luxury Goods
- Holidays
- Mobile Phones
- Price Comparison
- Product Manufacturers
- Jobs & Career
- Consumer Goods
- Home Furnishings
- Property for Sale & Rent
- Business to Business Serivices
- News & Research
- Shopping
- Food & Drink
- Health & Beauty
- Consumer Electronics
And, of course, the other car 'stuff' they're looking for, apart from news, reviews and comment, includes:
- Car Manufacturers
- Car Lease & Rental
- Car Insurance
- Car Sales
- Garage Services
Which makes the Cars UK Directory a perfect place to showcase your business. Whatever your business.
How much does it cost?
There are just two categories of listing in The Directory - Local and National.
Local Listing
If your business serves a local area and isn't looking for customers throughout the UK, opt for a Local Listing. You will get a whole page in The Directory including up to nine photos, video, and as much information as you want to include, and all for just £295 a year (take a look at a typical listing by clicking here - opens in new window, just close it to return).
Building your page is really easy. Our simple system guides you through inserting your information, uploading photos and adding as much or as little detail as you wish about your business. And you can change anything you want, anytime you want. Every day, if you really want to!
National Listing
Select a National Listing and you'll get all the Local Listing gets, but your listing will take precedence in local search.
But the big deal for National Listings is that you're advert will appear a minimum of 10,000** times a month directly on the main Cars UK site (take a look in the sidebar of the main Cars UK site by clicking here - opens in new window, just close it to return).
Which makes the annual cost of just £695 probably the most cost effective way to reach readers on any Car site. Industry norms are between £25 & £50 per thousand views depending on size. The Directory is just £6 per thousand views plus any number of views from our readers searching The Directory.
What Next?
It's very straightforward to go through our simple sign-up and get your listing live. We reckon it should probably take you no more than about ten minutes, but even if you forget something - or want to change it - you can come back whenever you want and make as many changes as you like.
Even though it's really easy to get your listing up and running, we've prepared a guide to getting the most from your listing. Click here to open it in a new window so you can refer to it when you're working through your listing. Just keep it open whilst you add your information to make the whole process as easy as possible, and to make sure you get the most from your listing.
All you need to do now is choose below from a National Listing or a Local Listing, hit the relevant sign-up button and get your listing up and running. And if you have any questions you need answering we haven't covered here just contact us.
