DEALERSIP User Manual/Inventory
The Type field indicates to search engines the nature of the vehicle being listed. This is a critical input for your portal because it is directly used in schema markups. Selecting the wrong value can significantly impact your search engine ranking, as search engines rely on this field to identify the type of vehicles displayed on the front portal.
This field does not provide options for every possible vehicle category. Instead, you must select from the following allowed types:
- Vehicle – Generic base type for all vehicles, including heavy equipment such as JCBs.
- Car – Passenger automobiles, including sedans, SUVs, and vans.
- Truck – Cargo or commercial vehicles, including pickup trucks.
- Motorcycle – Motorbikes and scooters.
- MotorizedBicycle – Electric or gas-powered bicycles.
- BusOrCoach – Buses and coaches.
- Boat – Watercraft of all types.
- Bicycle – Pedal-powered two-wheeled vehicles.
Vehicle is the fail-safe type. If your category does not fall into any of the specific listed types, select Vehicle as the default.
Important: If you are uncertain which type to choose, it is recommended to create a support ticket. Our team will analyze your case and suggest the most suitable type to ensure accurate schema markup and better SEO performance.
