Driving traffic to your site can become expensive and if your site is unable to convert traffic into leads then your efforts have been wasted. A conversion rate is a measurement, also often referred to as a metric, which is defined as the percentage of visitors who take or complete a desired action. This is probably the most important metric you can measure. By measuring a percentage of visitors you can gauge how well or how badly your website is doing regardless of traffic levels.
The conversion rate of a market leading website of the top 5% of Car Dealers is 4% (R. L. Polk 2005 Study) an acceptable conversion rate would be around 2.5%.
