Interesting comments (as always). Just for the record, Team-BHP is ranked higher than any car manufacturer website Quote:

True. However, note that Honda's website popularity could have shot up due to their recent "win a Honda" campaign too. Quote:

I think you are getting what I am trying to say.. |
Sure do! That's why the disclaimer. This is one of those threads whose numbers should not be taken in the absolute sense. If you want accuracy, there's always the sales analysis threads! Quote:

LOL! But I could argue back saying there were only <3 lakh Nano bookings. A substantial number of which could be from non-computer / internet types. Quote:

I personally find that Maruti and Hyundai have decent websites. |
I agree. Ford's website is rubbish. Even the pricing given is a mere "starting from Rs.xxxxxx" unlike other brands that throw out accurate numbers. Maybe its to do with their unlimited special schemes, no one really knows the price of Ford cars!! A Related Discussion Quote:

Could also be because most brands aren't doing it right. I mean, all head honchos are from a pre-internet generation. All of them want to go web 2.0, social networking et al, but honestly (experienced first hand), they don't have a clue of how the internet works! Look at how Skoda botched up an opportunity with Team-BHP. Instead of a threat, they could have come up and said "okay, we erred, here's what we will do to make up to this customer". Anyways, that's another topic altogether. |
