Sandhills dealers
On a Sandhills website? Your machines are on your site. They're missing from your sitemap.
Sandhills keeps one inventory flowing to your site and the TractorHouse marketplace at once, and your machine pages arrive complete. The gaps are in how Google is told your machines exist, and how fast your site loads on a phone.
33 of the 350 largest independent tractor dealers we surveyed in 16 states run on Sandhills, about one in ten. See the survey
What Sandhills does well
One inventory feeds your site and the Sandhills marketplaces in real time, and your inventory and machine pages arrive complete, with names, prices, links and product markup.
Where search gets stuck
-
None of your machines are in your sitemap.
On all five Sandhills dealer sites we checked live in October 2026, the sitemap listed category and search pages and not one individual machine, including a dealer with 527 machines for sale.
Check it: open
yourdomain.com/sitemap.xmland look for a single machine. -
Every page in your sitemap carries the same date.
On all five, every entry in the sitemap had the same "last modified" date. Google says it uses that date only when it is "consistently and verifiably accurate".
Check it: in your sitemap, look at the
lastmoddates. -
Your "next page" button is not a link.
The page buttons buyers click to see more inventory are scripts with no address behind them. Only a hidden tag in the page head points to page two. Google's own documentation: "Google can only crawl your link if it's an <a> HTML element with an href attribute."
Check it: View Page Source on your inventory page and search for your page-two button.
-
Your site is slow on a phone.
Of 10 Sandhills dealer sites we tested on October 7, 2026 with Google's Lighthouse, one showed its main content within 2.5 seconds, Google's own guideline. The median took 6.1 seconds.
