Your Shop is More Than Just “Car Repair”

You’re a specialist. You don’t just “fix cars,” you’re the go-to expert for transmission rebuilds, the best shop in town for European imports, or the only place that can do a proper AC recharge.

But when potential customers search online, you’re probably just lumped in with every other general repair shop. It’s tough to stand out.

What if you could have a whole website just for your most profitable service? A site that screams “We are THE experts in this one thing.”

That’s a microsite. And it’s what we do.

So… What Exactly is a Microsite? 🤔

Don’t let the name fool you. A microsite website isn’t just a small, cheap-looking page. Think of it like this:

Your main website is your entire shop—the front office, all the bays, the parts department. It has to cover everything.

A microsite is like setting up a specialist bay right at the front entrance, with a huge neon sign that says “EXPERT BRAKE REPAIR HERE.” 🚨

It’s a small, separate website laser-focused on one single topic. It has its own name (like BrakesByTomsAuto.com), its own content, and its own goal: to get you leads for that one specific thing. It’s way more than just a microsite landing page; its a whole focused experience.

How This Gets Your Auto Shop More Business

Okay, enough theory. Here’s how building a microsite actually helps you book more jobs.

1. Attract Hyper-Specific Customers

Instead of trying to rank for the super-competitive term “auto repair,” a microsite can rank for something like “honda transmission repair Houston.” Someone searching for that is not just kicking tires—they need that service, and they need it now. You show up as the clear specialsit, not just another option on a long list.

2. Perfect for AI Search (Like Siri & Alexa)

People dont talk to their phones like they type into Google. They ask questions.

“Hey Siri, where can I get my Tesla battery checked?” “Alexa, find a shop that specializes in vintage Mustang repair.”

A microsite web page packed with detailed info, FAQs, and videos about one topic is the perfect answer for these AI assistants. It makes you the obvious, most helpful result. This is how you get ahead of teh competition.

3. Run Promotions That Actually Work 🎯

Want to run a “Summer Road Trip AC Check” special? Instead of a buried banner on your main site, you can launch a quick campaign microsite for it.

This is a game-changer for measuring marketing ROI.

Frequently Asked Questions

So what exactly is a microsite anyway?
Think of it like this: your main website is your whole shop. A microsite is like a special, focused website just for one thing, like brake jobs or EV repair. It has its own name and its whole goal is getting you leads for that one spesific service.
How's this different than the website I already have?
Your main site has to cover *everything* you do. A microsite is laser-focused on just one high-profit service. This helps you show up as THE expert when someone searches for that specific thing, instead of just another general repair shop on a long list.
Is a microsite just another name for a landing page?
Nah, its more than that. A landing page is usually just one page. A microsite website is a small, complete site—it can have a few pages, like a contact page, a services page, and maybe some testimonials, all dedicated to that single topic. Its a full experience.
Why not just build a new page on my current site for transmission repair?
You could, but a separate microsite helps you dominate search results for that specific term. Its way easier to rank a site like 'HoustonsBestTransmissions.com' for transmission searches than a single page on a general auto repair site. It makes you look like the go-to specialist.
Will this actually help me get found on Google and with voice search?
Absolutely. When someone asks Siri for a very specific problem like 'where can I get my Tesla battery checked,' your specialized microsite is the perfect answer. It makes you the obvious choice for Google and for AI assistants cause you're the expert.
What kind of services would work for a microsite?
Pretty much any specialty you have! We see shops create them for brake services, fleet vehicle maintenance (which is a great b2b microsite), EV care, or one just for their tire sales. If you want more of a certain job, it's a great candidate for a microsite.
Do I have to build and manage this new site myself?
Nope, that's what we're here for! We are microsite developers, this is all we do. We handle the whole thing from the design to the development and support so you can just focus on fixing cars.
Does this replace my main business website?
Not at all! A microsite works alongside your main site. Your main site is for your overall brand, and the microsite is a sharp marketing tool to bring in specific, high-value jobs. They work together as a team.
