How people choose a funeral home.
When a death happens, families often call the funeral home their family has always used, or the one a hospice or hospital mentions. If they have no connection, they search on a phone, look at the map, read reviews and call. They want a calm voice, clear options and honesty about cost. Pre-planning is different. Older adults and their grown children research slowly, compare cremation and burial, and often attend a seminar before setting a plan.

Four things every funeral home site needs
A phone number that is always visible
Your number at the top of every page, with a clear line about when someone answers. Families often call late at night.
Obituaries that are easy to find and share
Obituary pages bring friends and family to your site. Make them simple to read, share and sign, and searchable by name.
Gentle guidance on cremation and burial
Explain the choices in plain words, with a path to your price information. Families appreciate honesty when they are overwhelmed.
A pre-planning page that informs
Walk through what planning ahead involves and how prepayment works under your state's rules, without pressure.
Win the map, where most local choices get made.
Primary category to start from: Funeral home. Then the details below, kept current every month for $499 a month.
Make cremation easy to find
If you operate your own crematory, Crematorium may fit as a secondary category. Either way, list cremation as a service so the profile matches those searches.
Photos of the chapel and rooms
Families want to see where the service will be held. Calm, well-lit photos of the chapel, visitation rooms and parking help.
Reply to reviews with warmth and privacy
Thank families simply, without details about the person who died unless the reviewer shared them. A gentle reply shows the care others can expect.
Example listing
How we would run your ads.
Each ad service is $499 a month. Your ad budget is paid straight to Google or Meta, never marked up, and you get a report every week.
Google Ads
Search ads for funeral homes should be calm and simple. Run campaigns for funeral home near me and cremation services within your area, sent to pages with clear options and a phone number. Use call ads during every hour someone answers. Run a separate pre-planning campaign with educational pages. Never retarget people who visited obituary pages, since they are mourners, not prospects.
Facebook and Instagram
Meta works for pre-planning, not for at-need calls. Run gentle educational ads about planning ahead, seminar invitations and community events to adults in your area. Keep the imagery calm and the tone respectful. Exclude obituary visitors from any retargeting. Your Facebook page matters too, because families share obituaries there, so keep it current and answer messages promptly.
Answer the questions before they call.
SEO & AI Search ($499 a month) publishes the answers your customers look for, so Google and AI assistants have a reason to send them to you. Articles we would write first:
- What to Do When a Loved One Dies at Home
- Cremation vs Burial: Questions Families Ask
- How to Write an Obituary
- What Pre-Planning a Funeral Involves
- Planning a Memorial Service After Cremation
What people now ask AI assistants
- What do i do first when someone dies?
- How much does cremation cost near me?
- Should i prepay for my funeral?
Busy and slow seasons
At-need calls come all year, and many funeral homes see more of them in the colder months. Pre-planning interest often rises after the holidays, when families have talked about wishes at the table. Steady, quiet visibility matters more here than seasonal pushes.
The mistake we see most
Aggressive marketing to grieving families, like retargeting obituary visitors with ads. It feels wrong because it is. Keep at-need marketing calm and easy to find. And follow the FTC Funeral Rule on price information, along with any state rules on posting prices or selling preneed plans.
Starter $1,499 or Growth $2,000 one time. Monthly services $499 each, or all four for $1,497 a month. 30-day terms.

Pick your state and the page fills in your towns.
Should our price list be on the website?
The FTC Funeral Rule sets requirements for giving out price information, and some states have added rules about posting prices online. Many families appreciate seeing prices or a clear path to them. We build a price information page that fits the rules you operate under and the choices your director makes.
How do you keep marketing respectful?
We keep at-need marketing quiet: an accurate Google profile, a calm site and search ads for people who are already looking. Promotion is saved for pre-planning, aimed at adults planning ahead. Obituary visitors are kept out of every retargeting audience, because a grieving family should never be followed by an ad.
Can the website handle obituaries and livestreams?
Yes. We build obituary pages that are easy to search, share and sign, and we can add livestream links for services. If you already use an obituary platform, we can usually connect it. A Growth Website at $2,000 also gives each service its own page in each town you serve.
What does monthly support cost?
Hosting & Management is $99 a month for the website. Google Business Profile Management and SEO & AI Search are $499 a month each, or $898 together. Neither monthly service is a long contract: each one is a 30-day agreement that ends with 30 days notice.
