FuneralBranch vs funeral comparison sites

Funeral comparison sites list funeral homes side by side, with reviews families can compare. FuneralBranch builds your own website, with Google integration, an estimator and obituaries in one place. You can use both.

FAQ
Should we leave the comparison site?
chevron down icon
Not necessarily. Look at the calls and website visits your listing brings in. If those calls justify the fee, keep it alongside your FuneralBranch website. If not, check your notice period so you can leave at the end of your term.
What do comparison sites cost?
chevron down icon
One leading UK comparison site charges £99 + VAT a month for each funeral home, on a 12-month term that renews unless you give 3 months’ notice, and its fees can change with 2 weeks’ notice (published partner terms, checked October 2026).
How do families find us on a comparison site?
chevron down icon
Families search by area and sort the list, for example by popularity, price or distance. The site decides the order and can change how it ranks funeral homes. On one leading site, funeral homes that aren’t members still appear, but without prices, a phone number or a link to their website.
What about our reviews?
chevron down icon
Comparison sites collect reviews from families, and some let you show them on your website with a widget. FuneralBranch also monitors your Google reviews, so you can see what families are saying.
Do comparison sites build websites?
chevron down icon
A listing gives you a profile page on the comparison site, not a website of your own. FuneralBranch builds, hosts and updates your website, with Google integration, an estimator and obituaries included.
Can we use both?
chevron down icon
Yes. Your listing can link to your FuneralBranch website, so families who find you on the comparison site can see your prices and get in touch. Your website keeps improving after launch, and if you’re not satisfied within six months, we’ll refund you in full.
