Managed Online Marketing for Contractors

A good website gets you in the game.

Managed marketing keeps you there.

If you built a site and expected the calls to flood in automatically — you're not alone. That's what a lot of contractors expect. And it makes sense. You did the hard part. You invested the money. You handed over the photos and the testimonials and waited.

But a website doesn't ring your phone. A maintained, optimized, actively managed online presence does.

That's what this page is about.

The Website Is Done. So Why Isn't the Phone Ringing?

Here's what most contractors don't know going in:

Google doesn't reward websites. It rewards active ones. Fresh content. Updated listings. Consistent signals that you're still in business, still in the area, still the best option for the job.

If your site went live and then went quiet — that's the problem.

Maybe your old web guy disappeared. Maybe you switched providers and your domain ended up stuck in somebody else's account. Maybe the site looks fine, but nobody's touching it — no updates, no rankings movement, no traffic reports.

You're not broken. You just need someone who shows up every single month and does the work.

That's what I do.

One "Web Guy". Your Entire Online Presence.

No dashboards to check. No guessing what "SEO" actually means for your business. No chasing someone down for a status update.

You focus on running jobs. I handle everything else.

Think of it like your work truck. You wouldn't skip oil changes and hope it keeps running. Your website is the same deal. It needs regular maintenance, fresh content, and someone paying attention — or it slowly stops performing.

I've been building and managing contractor websites since 2010. Not managing agencies. Not delegating to a team overseas. Me. One person, doing precise work, month after month, for contractors in South Jersey and the Philadelphia area.

That's the offer.

Three Plans. One Partner.

Choose the level of support that fits where you are right now. Most clients start at Basic and move up once they see their business growing and have more dollars to invest in online marketing.

Most Affordable — Basic: $99/mo

A professionally maintained website that keeps you online, looking sharp, and working for you.

You get:

• Fast, reliable hosting and domain management
• Mobile-friendly site maintained and updated
• Monthly traffic report — plain English, no fluff
• Up to 1 hour/month of content updates
• SEO foundation baked in
• Email and phone support when you need it

This is the foundation. If your site exists but nobody's minding the store, this is where you start.

Most Popular — Pro: $199/mo

Everything in Basic, plus active local presence management and fresh content going out every month.

You get everything in Basic, plus:

• Google Business Profile managed and optimized
• Facebook and Houzz directory listings managed
• Unlimited content updates — you ask, it gets done
• One new blog post per month (written for you, published for you)
• Facebook page updated to match your website

This is where the needle starts moving. Local rankings improve when your presence is consistent across every platform Google looks at. Most established contractors land here.

Guaranteed Reach — Elite: $399/mo

Everything in Pro, plus paid ad campaigns that put you in front of homeowners actively searching right now.

You get everything in Pro, plus:

• Google, YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram ad campaign setup and management
• Four Facebook posts per month
• Monthly online marketing consultation — we talk strategy, not just status

No long-term contract. Cancel anytime. 30-day money-back guarantee.

There's also a one-time setup fee that varies based on your starting point — I'll tell you exactly what it is when we talk, before you commit to anything.

And at a certain stage in our business relationship, I'll even give you a full backup handoff if you choose to leave — every file, every login, every asset. If you ever wanted to move on or hand things to someone else, you could with no worries of getting screwed.

No games.

No hostage situations.

You own your business website.

Who This Is For

This works best if you're a contractor who wants to hand off your online presence entirely and never think about it again.

It also works if you already have a Drive Web Design site and want to add SEO, content, and traffic momentum on top of the foundation we built.

And if you have an existing WordPress site from a previous designer — even if that designer went quiet — I can take it over with your login credentials. No full rebuild required to get started.

Not a good fit: Businesses with zero local reputation expecting organic results in 30 days. Anyone who wants to be involved in every decision or needs daily communication to feel comfortable. I do precise, quiet work. If that's not the right dynamic, I'll tell you up front.

What This Looks Like Over Time

DJK Roofing, LLC. Moorestown, NJ. Client since 2010.

Darren runs a roofing company. A few years in, he relocated to a new service area and had to rebuild local recognition from scratch — new city, new competition, same guy doing quality work.

We rebuilt his presence systematically. Updated content, managed listings, stayed consistent. Today he ranks at or near the top for his primary roofing keywords across several nearby towns.

He eliminated his Yellow Pages spend entirely. Redirected that budget to the website. The phone kept ringing.

He's been with me since 2010. Not because of a contract. Because the work kept delivering.

“Ray has been building and maintaining my website for years. He always answers when I call or email with questions. My site always looks great and up to date. I would recommend Drive Web Design to any business owner.”

B&B Tree Service, Inc. Glendora, NJ. Client since 2015.

Their previous provider disappeared — and took their domain with them. Not a metaphor. The domain was moved into the provider's personal account. Getting it back was a mess.

We rebuilt from a new domain, from scratch. Focused on long-tail searches — "stump grinding near me," "tree removal South Jersey" — the exact phrases homeowners type when they actually need the job done.

Goals and conversions have trended upward every year since.

The numbers:

These two South Jersey contractor clients combined for the traffic stats below in 1 year (organic traffic, excluding ad spend).

That's what consistent, managed SEO looks like over time. Not overnight. Not magic. Just showing up every month and doing the work, pairing that with a strong offline brand through lawn signs, trucks, and happy customer referrals.
