The well known leading car hire comparison site Carrentals.co.uk has now topped the natural search rankings 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. The report was made up by the leading independent search engine marketing agency, Greenlight.

However, Carrentlas.co.uk was not just at the top of the charts domestically, but worldwide as well. On top of this good news, the car hire comparison site 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, led to a 72 percent increase in revenue.

The managing director of Carrentals.co.uk, Gareth Robinson, 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.”

Robinson 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 is so successful because it compares car hire deals from the 50 leading car hire companies in over 9,000 locations. This is a set up that seems to work well since the company has been able to bring in tons of awards.
