FAQ

Common questions about how Welding.City works — including the AI-powered business page — for customers and for businesses.

For Customers
How do I find a welding business near me?
Go to All Cities and pick your location, or search by city name. Each city page shows all welding and metal fabrication businesses advertising in that area — with their phone number and website link right on the listing.
Are these businesses verified or licensed?
No. Welding.City is a paid advertising directory — businesses pay to be listed here. We do not verify certifications, licenses, insurance, or credentials. All information on a listing is provided by the advertiser. Always verify qualifications directly with the business before hiring.
Is it free to browse the directory?
Yes. Browsing the directory, viewing listings, and contacting businesses is completely free for customers. Fees only apply to businesses that advertise here.
How do I contact a business?
Each listing shows the business phone number and a direct link to their website. Premium listings also have a dedicated AI business page where you can get instant answers about their services and submit your project details directly. No forms, no middlemen — direct contact only.
What if I have a bad experience with a listed business?
Welding.City is an advertising platform — we are not a party to any service agreement between you and the business. We have no authority over how a business operates. If you have a dispute, that is between you and the business directly. You can contact us to report a listing that contains false information.
For Business Owners
How do I list my welding business?
Click "List Your Business" in the menu or go to add-business.php. Fill out the form with your city, business name, specialty, and contact details. Choose Free or Premium at checkout. Your listing will be reviewed and go live within 24 hours.
How much does it cost to advertise?
A standard directory listing is free. Premium AI — which includes #1 placement in your city plus a dedicated AI-powered business page — is $249/year (launch pricing, normally $499). Flat rate only, no commissions and no pay-per-lead fees. See the Pricing page for full details.
Do you take a commission on jobs I get through the directory?
No. We take zero commission on any work you get — whether from your standard listing or your AI business page. You pay for the advertising slot, every job and every dollar you earn is entirely yours.
What is the difference between Free and Premium?
Free listings appear in the standard grid on your city page — your name, specialty, phone, and website. Premium AI gives you #1 placement at the top of the city page above all free listings, plus a dedicated AI-powered business page that answers customer questions, captures lead details, and sends you notifications — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Can I update or remove my listing?
Yes. Contact us through the contact page with your business name and the changes you need. We'll update your listing within 24 hours. To remove a listing, contact us and we'll take it down.
AI Business Page — Premium

The AI business page is included with every Premium AI listing. It's a dedicated page that answers, sells, and captures leads on your behalf — 24/7, automatically.

What exactly is the AI business page?
It's a dedicated page for your business where an AI assistant — trained on your specific services, specialties, and service area — interacts with visitors in real time. It answers their questions, describes what you do, and collects their contact info and job details as a lead sent directly to you.
Does the AI answer as me, or as a bot?
It represents your business — using your shop name, your specialties, and your information. It introduces itself as a digital assistant for your business. Customers know they'll follow up with you directly, but they get immediate answers to their questions around the clock.
How quickly does my AI page go live?
Your AI page is typically configured and live the same day you submit your listing. We build it from your business information — you review and approve before launch. No technical setup required from you.
How do I receive the leads my AI page captures?
When the AI captures a lead, you receive an instant notification with the customer's name, phone number, and job details. You call them back on your own schedule — no intermediary, no delay.
Do I need any technical knowledge to use it?
None. We handle the entire setup. You fill in your business details when submitting your listing, we build the AI page, you approve it, it goes live. No prompts to write, no tools to learn, no ongoing maintenance.
