It should come as no surprise.
Customers and consumers who visit the Santander Consumer USA blog are interested in some subjects more than others – such as Auto Finance and Car Shopping, Used Vehicles and New Vehicles. Those are the top categories in a survey of more than 45,000 recent blog visits.
As a national auto lender, Santander Consumer (SC) ought to be able to help with those things, right? Well, we think so, too.
Among the subjects we’ve tackled in an effort to ensure customers and other consumers are able to navigate the sometimes choppy waters of Auto Finance, for example, are:
- How much car can I afford?
- What is the 20/4/10 rule … when buying a car?
- Here’s how long a car should be financed
- How to make your car payment easier
- How to avoid upside down car financing
- Why your credit score is important (video)
- How to set up a monthly budget to finance a vehicle (video)
- What is a simple interest contract in auto financing? (video)
- 14 ways to be a better-informed borrower
You can find those posts and more under the category Auto Finance, which, thanks to our blog redesign, apparently is about five times easier to reach than the same 30-day period last year.
Almost 42 percent of the visitors interested in the four top blog categories went to Auto Finance. The other categories are Used Vehicles (27 percent), Car Shopping (19 percent) and New Vehicles (13 percent), with percentages adding up to more than 100 due to rounding.
Here’s a sampling of recent posts for the other three top categories:
