Why general contractors check your website
An estimator putting together a bid list has limited time and a lot of risk. Before inviting a new subcontractor, someone will usually look you up to answer three questions: Do they do this scope? Have they done jobs like this? Can I trust them?
Your website is often the first — and sometimes only — place they look. Use the checklist below to make sure the answers are easy to find. Your progress is saved in this browser.

Make bidding easy
Every extra step between "this looks like a good sub" and "invite sent" loses some estimators. A good bid path has:
- A visible "Invite us to bid" button on every page.
- A form that collects project name, bid date, location, scope and drawings in one step.
- An auto-reply confirming you received it — so they know it did not disappear.
