Angi can put your business in front of homeowners who are ready to hire. A website and Google listing of your own does something different: it brings in customers who chose you, and you do not pay for each one. Here is how the two compare, using what Angi says on its own pages.
Side by side

| Angi | FieldTender Presence | |
|---|---|---|
| How Angi describes its pro side | Per Angi's FAQ, service professionals pay to advertise on Angi, a basic profile is free, and advertising is not required. | You pay once for a website and Google listing of your own, then $19/month hosting. |
| Lead pricing | The public pages we checked do not spell out per-lead or per-match prices. Ask for them in writing. | No per-lead fees. |
| Who can advertise | Per Angi's FAQ, pros can advertise if they keep an average rating of 3 stars or higher and meet other criteria. | No rating requirement. |
| Demand | Angi says it sees more than 1.5 million opportunities a month on the platform. | Calls come from people who find you on Google, which takes weeks to months to build. |
| Who owns the profile and reviews | Your Angi profile and reviews live on Angi. | Your Google listing, your domain and your site are yours. |
| Year-one cost | Depends on what you buy and how much you spend. | $1,425 ($1,197 plus 12 months of hosting). |
| Contract | Ask what any paid plan commits you to. | No minimum term. |
Fair is fair
If you are new, have no website and need requests from homeowners right away, a marketplace can start faster than a site and a Google listing can. Many contractors use both (see the seven-step plan): Angi for new customers while their own presence builds, and their own site and listing so they depend on it less over time.

Common questions
No. We do not sell or resell leads and there are no per-lead fees. We build your own website and Google listing, so customers who call you found you on Google.
No. Keep it for new customers if it pays for itself. The aim is to depend on it less: your own site and listing bring in calls with no per-lead fee, and FieldTender Direct gives repeat customers a way to book you without going back through an app.
Angi's public pages we checked do not give one price for pros, so ask for current fees in writing. FieldTender is $1,197 once plus $19 a month for hosting, which is $1,425 in the first year, before sales tax. Compare it with what you spent on leads over the last few months.
Usually not at first. A marketplace can send requests as soon as you are set up. Your site is live in 48 hours and your Google listing is typically verified in 1 to 5 business days, but ranking takes weeks to months and depends on your market.
