Advertise Your Business on South Jersey Contractors
A curated, vetted contractor directory reaching homeowners from Cherry Hill to the shore to the Pinelands — across all 7 South Jersey counties.
I built South Jersey Contractors to be a curated local directory — not a national lead-seller like Angi or HomeAdvisor where anyone with a credit card lands on page one and your number gets sold to five strangers. Every contractor here is hand-reviewed before they're listed. Below is exactly what it costs to get in front of South Jersey homeowners, and exactly what you get. No hidden fees, no annual lock-in.
How much does it cost to advertise?
A curated directory listing starts at $200/month. Add a dedicated blog post + best-of placement built for AI search at $350/month, the homepage Featured spot at $500/month, full SEO on your own website at $800/month, or multi-location SEO at $2,000/month. Every plan is month-to-month — no contract. Submit your business for review or call (888) 863-7421 to start.

💡 "Doesn't 'no pay-to-rank' mean I can't pay?"
Fair question. Advertising buys you visibility and placement — a listing, a write-up, content, the homepage spot. It does not buy a rating you didn't earn, a fake review, or a spot if you're not properly registered. Every advertiser still passes the same vetting: active NJ registration (a "13VH" number), real insurance, and a clean reputation, verified at njconsumeraffairs.gov/hic. Don't qualify? We won't list you at any price. That's what keeps this directory worth being in.
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to get listed?
A curated directory listing starts at $200/month. Adding a blog post and best-of placement is $350/month, the homepage Featured spot is $500/month, full SEO on your own website is $800/month, and multi-location SEO is $2,000/month. All month-to-month.
What's the difference between the listing plans and the SEO plans?
The $200, $350, and $500 plans build your visibility on southjerseycontractors.com — listing, content, best-of lists, and the homepage. The $800 and $2,000 plans add hands-on SEO on your own website: $800 targets one town, $2,000 covers unlimited locations for contractors serving multiple markets.
How does the best-of list help with AI search?
When someone asks ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, or Perplexity "who's the best [trade] in [town]," those tools pull from structured "best-of" pages. Being on ours puts your business in the answer.
Is there a contract?
No. Every plan is month-to-month — upgrade, downgrade, or cancel anytime.
What if my business isn't registered yet?
We can't list you until you carry an active NJ "13VH" registration and insurance. Register with the NJ Division of Consumer Affairs first, then come back and we'll get you in.
