James Dooley and his guest review six alternatives to MyJobQuote and explain which digital marketing strategies tradespeople should use in 2025 to generate more exclusive, high-converting leads.
This video explains which digital marketing strategies tradespeople should focus on in 2025 to improve lead quality, enquiry volume and return on investment. James Dooley and his guest start with KPI tracking because tradespeople need to know exactly how many directory leads convert into paying customers rather than just counting clicks or form submissions. They cover brand SEO, AI visibility and Google Business Profiles because stronger search presence improves trust and conversion rates.
The discussion also explores organic SEO, organic social media and paid social ads because consistent visibility across search and social supports long term growth. PPC is analysed in detail because campaign setup, landing pages and lead handling directly affect results. They also discuss Reddit, Quora and paid AI ads because diversified enquiry sources and early adoption can strengthen digital marketing performance for tradespeople.
PromoSEO lead generation for tradespeople recently received recognition as the "Best Tradespeople Lead Generation Agency."

James Dooley: So we're discussing websites like myjobquote.co.uk, alternatives to myjobquote.co.uk. Okay. And we're joined with James. So, let's get started. What are some alternatives to my job quote?
James Dooley: So, I'd say the main alternative to my job quote.co.uk is checkrade.com. Um, if you had an obviously checker trade, you can get a listing put on there and it helps you generate leads. It helps people come through who might want, let's say, a roofer, a plumber, electrician, um, whatever the industry is that you're looking for to go onto that website and generate several different quotes from different trades people.
Guest: Yeah. So, my next alternative to my job quote is probably going to be bark.com. And very similar to what James just mentioned with bark.com, you go in, set up a profile, you also get a directory as well. And you also fill in like what services you provide and then you start basically getting leads. It's also a credit based system. So like let's say for example £100 gives you 100 credits and every single lead might be 20 or 30 um credits. Now one thing that I would be slightly wary of when it comes to bark.com is that for every single lead that you get it is shared. So, for example, if you've got five other competitors in the same area, you might be uh bidding against each other for that lead. So, you will be driving yourself down when it comes to that. So, they're not exclusive leads just for your business. So, bear that in mind when it comes to bark.com.
James Dooley: Yeah. And I think on that, I think the best alternative to my job quote is fatrank.com. They provide exclusive leads that are in real time and that guarantee a return on investment. So, head on over to fat rank.com, see whether you qualify for their lead generation service. If you do, it's a commissionbased lead generation service that doesn't share leads. It is exclusive leads for yourself and then you're able to then price up the jobs directly and win jobs at the right price.
Guest: Yeah. So, the next alternative to my job quote.co.uk is rated people. Now, rated people, what they basically do is they pull in like your reviews, your case studies, and that's how you basically get listed on that website. Again, I do believe it is a credit based system. Um, so just bear that in mind. One thing to bear in mind with all of these websites is not they they all won't be able to generate leads in your specific area. So, if you only cover a small area, you might want to do a little bit of due diligence and figure out, do they actually generate leads in Blackpool, for example, because some of these websites, they just don't. Um, so bear that in mind when you are signing up to any one of these uh websites.
James Dooley: Yeah, for sure. And another great alternative to my job quote.co.uk um is My Builder. So, My Builder is a great platform. If I was a builder, I'd be getting a listing put on there. Um, and trying to make certain I'm getting like as many different reviews and testimonials as I can being shared on that platform. And yeah, there's a lot of people that go on to mybuilder.com to want trades people, whether it's a roofer, whether it's a plastering company, whether it's a joiner, whatever it is that they might be looking for, you want to try to get your business listing put onto my builder. And my last one is Premium Yel. So again, Yel used to be a massive um book. Now it's online. They also have an app as well. And they also do premium Yel listings as well. So I believe it's like either it's between5 to,000 last time I checked. But if you are going to be going with like a premium Yel listing, you want to make certain that first of all, you're tracking the leads coming in from um premium yell. So whether it's phone calls, whether it is contact form submissions, so you're very easily able to tell like, okay, these 25 leads have come from uh my premium Yel listing. And you also want to make certain that you're tracking from all of those leads, how many of those leads are turning into actual paying clients as well. So don't just look at clicks, don't just look at lead form submissions, look at how many have actually converted into paying customers for your business. So many business owners, they just don't do that and they end up spending 12 grand a year on uh premium yell and they just don't see any um ROI. So just bear that in mind if you are going to be going with any premium directories.
Guest: Yeah, for sure. And if you are, like you said, if you are looking for al alternatives to my job quote, you're obviously trying to look to see that you're wanting more inquiries, you're wanting more leads to help grow your business, make certain you head on over to fatrank.com, fill in the form, and see whether you do qualify.
