Dock Builder Marketing Agency Turn waterway searches into signed contracts.

The numbers are public. Google Ads management runs 10% of whatever you put toward ad spend, with a $600 monthly minimum and zero markup added on top — the ad budget itself goes straight to Google. SEO work is priced at $50 per page with a 10-page floor. A custom site is a one-time build between $1,500 and $20,000+, broken down at /websites. There's no setup charge, nothing locks you into a term, and if the first 30 days don't convince you, you don't owe us anything. Send over what you build and where, and a proposal lands in your inbox within a business day.

If your phone goes quiet the moment ice sets in and can't keep up once storm season starts, or a lead site keeps handing your name to homeowners who never call back, the math favors hiring one. We build the site, run the ads, handle map rankings, and chase reviews — no long-term contract, so results have to keep earning the relationship. If word-of-mouth already fills your build season end to end, hold off for now.

A real one wins you jobs across every channel a homeowner might use to find you, not just Google Ads. SearchPod builds your site around finished waterfront work, runs paid search on job-specific terms, handles your map ranking and permit-focused content, and automates follow-up and review requests — connected as one pipeline instead of five separate logins.

Look for one that already understands permit-heavy, seasonal construction. They should ask what waterway and project type a lead needs before sending it your way, show you the real cost behind each signed job, publish pricing instead of quoting it privately, and hand you ownership of your site and ad accounts. Skip anyone reselling the same lead to your competitors or holding your site hostage on their platform.

Paid search can put estimate requests on your calendar inside the first few weeks. SEO, AI visibility, and reviews take longer to build but eventually bring in leads with no per-click cost attached. Because permits add lead time on top of a short build season, starting before ice-out — or before your region's storm season peaks — gives everything room to be working by the time homeowners start calling.

You get one crew handling the site, ads, map rankings, AI visibility, follow-up, and reviews instead of coordinating separate vendors who don't compare notes. Pricing is posted, not negotiated behind closed doors. There's no contract holding you in place, you keep the site and the ad accounts if you ever leave, and the first 30 days come with a satisfaction guarantee.

Exclusive — nothing generated through your site or ads gets resold to another builder. Every form and call opens by asking about the waterway, the project type, and the rough timeline, so you're driving out to a homeowner ready to build instead of one collecting bids from everyone in the county.

From day one. Every call and form is tagged back to the ad, keyword, or page that produced it, so you can see which project types and channels actually turn into signed contracts, not just which ones make the phone ring.

That's usually where the real margin sits. We position your brand around your most complex work — boathouses, multi-slip community docks, full seawall replacements — and aim ads and content at homeowners already searching for exactly that scope, so you're not stuck underbidding smaller jobs against every crew in the area.

Yes — your lead flow can route straight into Buildertrend, JobNimbus, or most other contractor CRMs your crew already runs jobs through, so nothing sits in a separate inbox waiting to be copied over by hand.

Everything produced is handed to you outright — the site itself, the brand files, the ad accounts, and every client record. Nothing sits on a proprietary platform you'd lose access to. If you ever stopped working with us, your dock business keeps all of it.

Timing depends on which package fits your business and how quickly we get usable project photos and sign-off from you. You'll see a real schedule before work starts, not just a promised date. The full price range sits at /websites — eight packages, running $1,500 to $20,000+.
