How we make money
The short version is the disclosure you'll see next to every quote button on this site:
Searching by ZIP code or reading a guide here costs you nothing at all. The one feature that actually sends information anywhere is the quote button, which routes to our matching partners, and a partner pays us only when that button turns into a real quote request. No installer pays to show up on this site, whether a license file or a Google rating put its name here, and the business that eventually reaches out may differ from the ones you saw listed.
Grouping listings by ZIP code and writing the guides on this site doesn't earn anything on its own; it's built the same way regardless of traffic or clicks.
A matching partner pays us specifically when a visitor uses the quote button and that click becomes a quote request. Installers grouped under a ZIP code haven't paid anything for that placement, and we can't promise the contractor who follows up is one of those names.
The quote button
Pages with listings also carry a quote button. It opens a quote request run by our matching partners, not by the businesses listed on the page. When you ask for quotes through it, a partner may pay us. That is how we pay for running this site.
The partner decides which companies to match you with, so the companies that contact you may not be the ones listed on the page you came from. Before you hire anyone, check their license the same way you would check a listed business.
What it costs you
Using Siding Installers Near Me costs homeowners nothing. You don't pay us for listings, lookups or quote requests.
What money doesn't change
- Listings come from state license records or, on top-rated lists, from Google Maps ratings. No business pays to be listed, to be left off, or for its position.
- License listings are sorted alphabetically. Top-rated lists are ranked only by Google rating and review count.
- There are no paid placements today. If we add any, they will be marked Sponsored.
- Verify license links go only to the state's license registry, never to a partner.
How to tell the links apart
Quote buttons always sit in a box with the disclosure above, and they are marked as sponsored links in the page code (rel="sponsored"). Every other outbound link on the site goes to an official license record, a business's Google Maps listing, or a source we cite.
