Stop Waiting on Developers & Agencies to Get Your Business Online
If you’re not online, your business might as well not exist — at least in the eyes of leads looking for a reputable company to work with. Don’t waste weeks working with a custom developer or rely on a generic website template that doesn’t showcase your business.
With Carrot, you can launch your customized website in minutes with built-in SEO and local targeting. You deserve a website that works for you.

I never got anything from my old custom websites… You go where people are getting results. I saw people in competitive markets using Carrot, so I knew it was the platform I needed.
Thousands of real estate pros trust Carrot websites. Here are just a few …
Pretty doesn’t equal performance
Too many people focus on what their website looks like, and not nearly enough on how well it performs. Did you know that …
Google expects your website to load within 2.5 seconds
By the 3-second mark, potential leads are abandoning your website (by the 8-second mark, you’re losing 20%+ of visitors!)
The order of pages in your main navigation bar matters
That means if your site takes 4 seconds to load, for every 100 visitors you’re losing 10 people before they even learn about your services. How many of those potential leads could have turned into a deal? How many deals are you willing to lose to a poorly performing site? $20,000 worth of revenue? $100,000?
On top of that, if your site loads slowly and people bounce a lot, it negatively impacts how well you show up in search and AI engines.
So … is your custom website developer or the “cheap” website builder paying attention to that? Do they alert you to potential performance issues — and tell you how to fix them?
Is that pretty site worth sacrificing real revenue?
I had a PPC vendor who built a super techy site that they swore would outconvert my Carrot site — it didn’t. I paid $5,000 to have a custom site designed that was really pretty, but I got less leads. My expensive, pretty site was converting at 1-2% on SEO when my Carrot site was converting at like 8.5% on SEO.

Carrot has been a game-changer for our business. Within the first three months, we saw a 200% increase in leads and a significant improvement in our search engine rankings. The platform is incredibly easy to use, and the support team is always there to help. We’ve been able to focus more on closing deals rather than worrying about our online presence. Carrot truly understands the needs of real estate investors.
Carrot websites were designed from day one to do one thing … attract high-quality, motivated leads. If you’re not getting the leads you hoped for, your website could be the problem. See why thousands of real estate investors rely on Carrot.
Websites aren’t “one and done” things that you launch and never think about again. But that’s the way a lot of cheap website building platforms treat them.
Good thing Carrot isn’t just another website builder. Here are the built-in strategies, tools, and features that help you create a successful, ongoing online presence…
[BETA] Recommended Marketing Strategies
Start with a strong marketing strategy, without being a marketing expert
Your website should be more than just “an online business card.” Good websites attract traffic, generate leads, and help you close deals. That takes more than just random words and a phone number.
Carrot’s new AI website builder doesn’t just generate a website, it gives you a full marketing strategy that guides your SEO, content, and the best way to target specific locations. These strategies are crafted based on your business, target markets, and goals. Even better … we don’t just recommend strategies, we implement them directly into your site for you.

When you search for a service provider online, do you search for someone in the nearest big city? Or do you enter your search term followed by your town name? Targeting people with their specific location name is critical to high-quality lead generation.
You could manually build a page for every city, town, and neighborhood you do business in. Or you could let Carrot’s Auto Location Pages handle it for you. These take all the details about your business and services and SEO optimize it for a specific location.
SEO isn’t static. You need to pay attention to trends and search algorithm changes, then adjust accordingly. There are plenty of tools that help you do this … and we’ve built a few of them into your Carrot website dashboard.
I was already running a WordPress site for my real estate business, but it wasn’t designed for investors. When I found Carrot, I knew it was built specifically for what I needed.
More and more people are turning to AI search and finding the information they want without ever clicking a link. If you want to keep capturing those leads, you need to show up wherever they’re searching.
Join Carrot’s monthly AI Search Visibility Challenge to learn how to adjust your website and brand for the age of AI search.
It’s 2026 … do you know where your leads are coming from?
You should, or you’re wasting money. Paying for any marketing without knowing exactly how well it works is like throwing money into a black hole. Carrot’s campaign tracking helps you measure exactly where your best online and phone leads found you.
When I first started out in REI I was told to cold call, send SMS campaigns, door knock, put up bandit signs and hated it all and did not feel authentic… then I found Carrot!

Carrot versus Other Websites
Custom WordPress
Mike spent $7,000 on two custom websites, but wasn’t happy with the results.
“I never got any leads from my old custom websites. They looked great, they just didn’t perform.” — Mike Wall
“I dipped my toe into GrumpyHare. Their sites look ok, but they’re harder to work in, have no texting about leads, and the spam is out of control! I’ve been a Carrot guy since 2017, and honestly, I’m ashamed I even tried something else.” — Matthew W.
REsimpli is an “all-in-one” provider that only recently added website capabilities to its CRM platform. Do you want to trust an afterthought feature or the experts who have been building high-converting websites for 10+ years?
You own your content. AI-generated, unique to your business. Export anytime. You own your data. Every lead, every report, every call recording. You own your domain. Your URL, your brand.
What you don’t own: the code. And you shouldn’t want to.
Code is a liability, not an asset. It needs constant maintenance, security patches, and upgrades as Google, mobile, and AI search evolve. We make multiple system-wide updates per month. With a custom site, that’s your problem.
Even “owning” a custom site means renting servers, hosting, SSL certs, and plugins. You don’t own any of that anyway.
What people actually want is control. Carrot gives you that.
One lost deal from an underperforming “owned” site costs more than a decade of Carrot.
Carrot Websites Frequently Asked Questions
Do I own my website?
You own your domain name (example: carrot.com), which you can take with you to any website builder. And you own all your original content, images, and client testimonials. However, you cannot export an entire website built on Carrot and simply upload it to another provider. You will need to rebuild your site on their platform.
Can I buy my domain from Carrot?
Carrot does not sell domain names. We recommend purchasing your domain through Hover. GoDaddy and Namecheap are also popular options.
I heard all Carrot websites look the same.
Carrot websites start with an SEO-optimized template (unless you use the new Carrot AI Website Builder!), so they can look similar if you don’t customize your site. But sites are easy to personalize and customize with our drag-and-drop editor and library of different design elements ready for your use. With a little work, your site will look totally unique!
Don’t want to customize your site yourself? Check out our design services.
Can I fully customize my website?
Carrot offers several customization features that allow you to set your brand colors, fonts, shapes, shadows, spacing, etc. We also provide a library of pre-built, drag-and-drop page elements to help you achieve the look you want and display your unique content. Some level of CSS customization is also possible.
However, Carrot websites are not 100% fully customizable. We work very hard to make sure all Carrot sites are designed with high-converting page elements while maintaining good site speed, security, and performance. Full code customization negatively impacts these core principles and can result in a poorly performing website.
We handle everything — SSL, malware protection, server security, patches. No plugin vulnerabilities.
You never think about site security.
Why is Carrot more expensive than other AI website builders?
AI website builders do just that: generate a website. They’re rarely customized to your brand beyond your company and a basic understanding of your industry. You’re on your own for everything else.
Carrot offers a more comprehensive approach to launching a successful website, including deep site customization to your brand, recommended marketing strategies, and the tools you need for ongoing execution, including:
Carrot is a website builder designed for online lead generation. That means we don’t get leads for you (it’s not like PPL). Instead, we help you build a website that is structured to show up where your potential leads are searching, inspire trust and confidence in your business, and give them plenty of opportunities to reach out to you. The sites that get the most leads spend time really customizing their website to reflect their brand by adding a strong About page, client testimonials, and ratings.
Once they’re in your database, you can use CarrotCRM to automate communication and keep working the deals.
Stop wasting time with a lackluster, underperforming website.
