A Footbridge Media alternative for owners who want the site to keep working after they leave

What does Footbridge Media sell?

Footbridge Media is a Pensacola, Florida marketing company that says it has worked with contractors and home service companies since 2004 and claims more than 2,000 contractor clients. Its home page, read October 31, 2026, lists cleaning, decking, electrical, general contracting, HVAC, landscaping, painting, pest control, plumbing, pressure washing, remodeling, roofing, septic, siding and windows, and shows a Google Partner badge.

The core product is one bundle. The contractor marketing program includes a custom site (unlimited pages), local SEO with answer-engine and generative-engine optimization, backlinks and local citations, blog posts and service pages, Google Business Profile management, automatic review requests and a contractor CRM. Its FAQ adds that most sites start with about 20 to 30 pages and go live within 3 to 5 weeks of layout approval, that the platform is not WordPress, and that Footbridge rebuilds every site from the ground up, even one you like. You get full access to your own Google Analytics and Search Console accounts.

The CRM is the Footbridge Dashboard: lead forms, customer records, a calendar for several offices and teams, online invoicing, Stripe payments and a products and services list. Its standalone page says it is also sold on its own with no contract and is not priced per user; the price is not shown, and the page does not mention texting or data export. Its electrician page says it limits how many electrical contractors it accepts per market area.

What does Footbridge Media cost?

Footbridge prints its prices, which only a few of the agencies we compare do. As listed on its pages on October 31, 2026:

So a one-truck company could run the program, ads management and chat for $517 a month before ad spend. Add the recommended $775 ad budget and the monthly total is $1,292. Run that math for your own budget before you compare offers. Footbridge also appears in our pressure washing and painting contractor agency comparisons, beside the other agencies that court those trades.

What do Footbridge's Terms say about ownership and leaving?

Footbridge's Terms of Service (effective June 18, 2026) are short, and its FAQ, guarantees page and ads page fill in the rest. We read all of them on October 31, 2026. Section numbers refer to the Terms; the summaries are ours, and anything in quotation marks is Footbridge's own wording.

Two details are worth acting on. The guarantees page says to call, while §11 asks for written notice, so if you cancel, do both and keep a copy. And ownership of the site under §6 starts after 90 days, which is also when the money-back window closes. That timing is fair, and it means the first three months are a trial in both directions.

What stops working the day you cancel?

Footbridge deserves credit for writing this down. Here is what it means on the ground. The pages still exist as files, but the hosting stops, so the site is offline until someone puts those files on a new host. The quote request forms stop sending, so even a rehosted site takes no leads until the forms are rebuilt. The CMS goes, so changing a page means editing the files by hand. The Dashboard stops, and with it the customer list, calendar and invoices you kept there; the pages we read don't describe an export, so ask how to get that data out before you need it. Review requests stop. The Google Ads account and its history stay with Footbridge, and calls from ads ran through a tracking number that forwards to your line.

None of that is hidden, and for a new company the low monthly price can be worth it. Just plan the exit before you need it. Our guide on losing a website when you cancel sets this beside builders such as Wix and Squarespace.

What do Footbridge Media's reviews say?

We checked each platform on October 31, 2026:

The praise is consistent. Recent Trustpilot reviewers credit redesigns and SEO with bringing in leads, describe responsive and professional staff, say they have stayed for about three years, call the fees reasonable, and in one case thank the team for getting a suspended Business Profile reinstated. The only negative review on Trustpilot, from September 2025 (Customer Lobby shows a one-star review from the same day under a matching name), says the program delivered little beyond the website: no Business Profile management, no SEO reports, no citation updates, and a refund under the 90-day guarantee that was not paid. Footbridge replied that the review does not represent most customers and that it can't discuss contract details in public. We have not verified either side.

When is Footbridge Media the right choice?

• You want to say yes without a sales call. Price, terms, refund window and price lock are all on public pages. We can't match that, because we publish no prices.
• Your budget is small and you want everything on one bill. A site, SEO, review requests and a CRM for $249 a month is hard to beat for a new company, and partner rates go lower.
• You want a trial with a real remedy. A refund window of 90 days and a price pledge of three years put the early risk on Footbridge.
• You want ads and social managed at a published fee. We don't run paid ads.
• You work in a trade it lists. Pressure washing, septic and cleaning are on its list, and its electrician page says it caps how many electricians it takes per market.

When are we the better fit?

We fit if you want every piece set up in your own name, so that changing providers never means a rebuild. Our pricing page puts this in writing on every quote: a domain registered to your company, website files and code kept in a hosting account under your name, a phone number ported to you instead of leased, the CRM's code plus the database holding every customer, your email list and templates, primary ownership of your Business Profile on Google, and all logins in a password manager you hold. Hosting, numbers, call minutes, email sending and ongoing SEO are each billed as their own monthly line, and any of them can end in any month.

We also handle the phone side, which the Footbridge pages we read cover only with website chat and tracking numbers for ad calls: business phone systems on your own number and an AI receptionist that answers calls. The limits are real too. We can't claim to be cheaper, because there is no public price list to compare against. Reviews of our work aren't published yet, and there is no phone line yet. Write to hello@dillardsdigital.com, or try the instant website checkup on your current site first. The service companies we own work from this same stack, and nothing we sell comes with a promise of rankings, leads or a return.

What should you ask Footbridge before you sign or cancel?

1. When does my 90-day window close? It is both the refund deadline and the date §6 ownership begins.
2. When I leave, which files do I get, and what will a new host need to run them? Ask whether the forms can be rebuilt on the files you receive.
3. How do I export my Dashboard customers, invoices and appointments? Get the answer in writing before you rely on the CRM.
4. Can the Google Ads account be in my company's name? The ads page says Footbridge keeps it, so ask what history you can take.
5. Who is the registrant on my domain, and who is primary owner of my Business Profile? Both should be you. Our Business Profile guide shows how to check.

Our printable agency contract checklist holds the full list, our pre-cancellation guide covers the order of moves, and agency contracts and ownership puts Footbridge next to other agencies on the same points.
