Before you sign

Four questions to ask any plumbing marketing company.

  1. What's the price, all in?

    Setup fees, the website, and anything billed separately.

  2. How long is the contract?

    And what does it cost to leave early?

  3. Who owns the website and the domain?

    Can you keep the site running if you leave, or do you get a folder of files?

  4. What exactly do you guarantee?

    “The work, shown to you monthly” is real. “Page one in 90 days” is a sales line.

Questions

About this list

What are the best marketing agencies for plumbers?

The best one is the one whose terms fit you. Compare them on four things they rarely advertise: a published price, contract length, early termination fees, and who owns the website and domain if you leave. On those, Footbridge Media and Hook Agency publish prices; Hook, Blue Corona and Footbridge state ownership terms; Scorpion typically requires 12 months for SEO; and Hibu's terms register a domain it provides to Hibu. We include ourselves, PlumberEngine, at $99 a month with no contract.

How did you choose and rank these companies?

We included companies that show up when plumbers search for marketing help and that serve plumbers specifically or home services broadly. We didn't rank them by quality, because we haven't been a customer of any of them. They're listed with PlumberEngine first because it's our page, then companies that publish a price, then those that don't.

Isn't it biased to include yourselves?

Yes, which is why we say so and why every fact about the other companies links to the company's own page. Check them yourself, and tell us if anything has changed.
