Most Contractor Website Companies Charge $300-500/Month and Own Your Site

Let me be straight with you. I've watched too many contractors get burned by website companies. You pay $300, $400, $500 a month. You sign a contract. You get a site that looks okay. Then you cancel—and your rankings disappear overnight.

Why? Because you never actually owned it. The company owned the domain. They owned the content. They owned your Google presence. You were just renting access to your own business.

That's backwards.

And the worst part? Most of these sites don't even rank well in the first place. So you're paying premium money for something that doesn't bring in leads anyway.

We Started Noticing a Pattern

About two years ago, we started talking to contractors. Real ones. Plumbers. Electricians. Roofers. GCs. We asked them about their websites. The answers were always the same:

  • "I have a website but nobody finds it."
  • "I'm locked into a $400/month contract that I can't get out of."
  • "When I tried to leave, they told me I couldn't take my domain."
  • "I pay for SEO but nothing's changed in two years."
  • "I have no idea what's actually on my site anymore."

These weren't bad contractors. They were good at their jobs. They just got sold a bad product by companies that treated them like customers, not like business owners.

And here's the thing that really got to us: the best contractors—the ones with great reviews, solid work, repeat clients—were invisible online. Meanwhile, mediocre competitors were getting all the Google traffic because they had better websites.

That's not fair. And it's not right.

So We Built Something Different

We decided to build a website platform that actually works for contractors. Not a template. Not a rental. A real solution.

Here's what we committed to:

You own it. All of it. Your domain. Your content. Your leads. Your rankings. If you leave, you take everything with you. No hostage situations. No surprise phone calls from SEO companies trying to keep you locked in.

It ranks on Google from day one. We built this thing with SEO baked in. Not as an add-on you pay extra for. Not as a promise. As a foundation. Your site is built to rank. Period.

It looks professional immediately. We know contractors are busy. You don't have time to fiddle with design settings or write copy for hours. Your site comes ready to convert. You can customize it, but you don't have to.

The pricing is sane. No $400/month trap. No long contracts. You pay for what you use, and you can walk away whenever you want. Because we built something good enough that you won't want to.

We're building WITH contractors, not just FOR them. We're in beta right now. That means we're still listening. We're still changing things based on feedback. We're still talking to plumbers and electricians and roofers and asking "Does this actually help you?" If it doesn't, we fix it.

A Real Example: Alsip Contracting

We worked with a contracting company—Alsip Contracting—early on. They'd been paying another website company $350/month for three years. No leads from the site. No rankings. Just a monthly charge.

We built them a ContractorLink site in a couple of weeks. Same information. Better structure. Proper SEO setup. Within 90 days, they were ranking for their main keywords. Within six months, they were getting 15-20 qualified leads a month from their site.

They dropped the old company. Kept the new one. And they own it completely.

That's the difference.

Why We're Different (And Why It Matters)

Look, there are a lot of website companies out there. But most of them are built on the same old model: lock people in, charge monthly, own the assets, make it hard to leave.

We're not built that way because we don't think that way.

We think contractors deserve better. You work hard. You build things. You have real clients who depend on you. Your website should work just as hard as you do. It should be yours. It should rank. It should bring in leads.

And if it doesn't, you should be able to walk away without losing everything.

We're in Beta. We Want Your Feedback

Right now, we're still building. We're not perfect. But we're real. We're honest. And we're listening.

If you're a contractor who's tired of getting burned by website companies—or if you're just tired of being invisible online—we want to talk to you. We're looking for contractors to join our beta. To use the platform. To tell us what's working and what's not. To help us build something that actually serves the trades.

Because that's what this is really about. We got tired of watching good contractors lose business to bad websites. So we built something better.

If that sounds interesting, check out ContractorLink. We're not going to spam you or pressure you. We're just building a better way to get contractors online and ranking. Apply for beta access if you want in.

The rest is up to you.
