What moves the number
Four things decide what roofing and home service contractors actually pay, in order of impact.
How many markets you serve
One city is a foundation build. Five cities is five sets of pages, five sets of tracking and five times the reporting — the largest single driver of the monthly figure.
Whether the site can carry it
A site that already renders server-side, indexes cleanly and has a CMS your team can use needs optimisation. One that does not needs the foundation rebuilt first, which is a one-time cost, not a retainer.
How competitive the terms are
Some roofing and home service contractors compete on price with three neighbours. Others compete nationally with franchises and lead marketplaces. Same deliverables, different amount of content and authority needed to get there.
How much proof you already have
Reviews, completed jobs, certifications and case history become page content. Where that material exists, pages go live faster and rank sooner — which shortens the expensive part of the engagement.
Questions we get asked
Most engagements in this industry start in the $1,000–$2,500 range. The monthly figure follows the market count and the state of the site: Cretaceous is $300/month with a $1,000 setup, Jurassic is $400/month with a $2,000 setup, Triassic is $650/month with a $5,000 setup. We quote a fixed monthly number after the audit, not a range that moves.
