Total page views

In October of 2024, DashboardSymbols.com saw its total page views pass the 46 million mark. The site is seen by thousands of drivers every day.

Since our founding in 2010, over 31.5 million visitors have accessed over 64.3 million pages and videos. And each one of those visitors is looking for help for some kind of automotive problem.

Its been tough the last 14 months or so. Changes in the Google algorithm has cost us some 75% of what was once steadily growing traffic. And while we continue to struggle to find the right formula to turn that situation around, we persist in our quest to host the information so desperately needed by drivers of modern vehicles.

The Video Side

We began creating videos, posted here and on our YouTube channel, early in 2015, principally to help drivers with dead key fobs. Along with some additional technology, repair and accessory videos, they are viewed some 100,000 times a month, and now total over 18.3 million views. There are 259 videos available.

Cars are changing, and among those changes is the growing number of symbols and indicators that will invariably show up on your dashboard or instrument panel. Every year, new features are added to vehicles, each of which is accompanied by a new symbol or symbols and likely a new acronym.

At DashboardSymbols.com, our aim is to help you understand what is happening to your vehicle at the first sign of trouble – a new warning light illuminated on your instrument panel. Its all here on this website. Our first intention is to bring the latest technologies down to earth and understandable for everyday drivers.
