Homedeal alternative
Build your own website alongside the work you get through Homedeal.
Homedeal can connect you with people looking for your trade. Klusio works on a different part of your business: the questions, pages and visibility that can bring people to your own website. Compare both routes by the work they deliver and the margin you keep, rather than assuming you must stop one to start the other.

What Homedeal offers and what Klusio works on
Homedeal’s own company page describes selecting a trade and region, receiving relevant request updates and paying to unlock chosen contact details. It also offers a company profile and customer reviews. Source checked on 21 October 2026. Check the actual price and conditions for your account.
| Question | Homedeal | Klusio |
|---|---|---|
| Where does the enquiry begin? | A request on the Homedeal platform. | A visitor finding and contacting your business through your website. |
| What are you paying for? | Unlocking selected requests under the platform’s terms. | A subscription for the agreed improvement rhythm and modules. |
| What can you develop? | Your presence and contacts on the platform. | Useful content and a clearer contact route on your own domain. |
| Who wins the job? | The customer decides after contact. | The customer decides after contact; they may compare other businesses. |
| What does the business still do? | Assess the enquiry, quote and carry out the work. | Supply business knowledge, approve where needed and follow up enquiries. |
When you want more control over acquisition
Look at three questions before changing your approach. Are the requests suitable for your work and region? How much time do you spend on enquiries that do not become jobs? Does your own website explain why a customer should choose you?
- Recurring acquisition spending
- Recurring costs are justified when the resulting jobs are profitable. Review the whole outcome, not just the invoice.
- Differentiation
- Show the work you specialise in, examples and relevant reviews. A website enquiry is direct, but the customer is still free to compare.
- An additional source of work
- Develop useful pages on your own domain so that the platform is not the only place where a prospective customer can discover you.
Three connected steps on your website
First, answer the questions people ask about your services. Then make it easy to discuss their situation. Finally, measure which enquiries are useful and improve the weakest part.
- Find a useful answer
- A service page or article explains a real customer question and links to the relevant service. Search placement is not guaranteed.
- Ask or request contact
- A clear form or activated chatbot helps visitors take the next step. Configure who receives the details.
- Learn from the outcome
- Compare completed work, search measurements and actual enquiries. Use the findings to select the next improvement.
From a customer question to work on your website
The Growth Engine connects research to execution. It examines your services, working area, existing pages and available search evidence before selecting the next suitable improvement. A new article is useful only when it answers a distinct question; an existing page may need attention first.
- Find a relevant question
- Compare the observed search results with your existing coverage. Keep the source and period with the recommendation.
- Prepare the actual change
- Use your business knowledge, real projects and current conditions. Show the current wording, proposed text, placement and reason for the change.
- Publish through the agreed route
- Use the supported website connection and your approval settings. Where direct execution is unavailable, prepare the selected changes for your developer.
- Check what changed
- Verify the live work, then follow impressions, clicks and recorded enquiries separately. An approval or publication is not evidence of a new customer.
Compare the cost of work you actually win
Use a single reporting period and count relevant enquiries, paid jobs and the margin those jobs leave after execution. Include the time spent replying, quoting and travelling. Platform charges and a website subscription pay for different work, so equal spending does not imply equal results.
- Direct channel cost
- Use your actual invoices and charges. Avoid treating an example lead price as a universal platform tariff.
- Time and conversion
- Track responses, quotations, unsuitable requests and won jobs. A cheap enquiry that does not fit can still be expensive to handle.
- Website investment
- Include the Klusio plan, any website work and your team’s input. Allow for the time needed to build useful content and assess search results.
Build the new channel without discarding useful work
Keep profitable sources of work while improving your own website. Use these phases as a checklist, not a promise that leads will arrive in a particular week. The starting point, competition, website access and available knowledge affect the pace.
- 1. Establish the baseline
- Record existing enquiries, acquisition spending and won jobs over a defined period. Identify the services and regions you actually want to grow.
- 2. Strengthen the website
- Check service pages, projects, reviews and the contact route. Prepare missing answers and carry out authorised changes through the available connection.
- 3. Follow relevant enquiries
- Record where each enquiry came from, whether it fits and whether it becomes a paid job. Compare like-for-like periods and account for seasonal demand.
- 4. Adjust on evidence
- Reduce a paid channel only when you can justify the change from demand, margin and available capacity. Keep a useful channel if it continues to contribute.
Customer evidence: Prak Gevelrenovatie
The published Prak case records 1,378 Google clicks from 5 July to 2 October 2026, compared with 283 in the corresponding period a year earlier. Approximately 75% of those clicks went to Klusio articles. Source: Google Search Console, reproduced in the customer case.
These are website clicks, not a count of won jobs. The comparison does not show that Prak replaced a particular platform or prove that every change was caused by Klusio. Read the implementation and measurement details before relating the result to your own business.
Plan the ongoing work
Groei Start costs €199 per month excluding VAT. The plan pays for a recurring rhythm of selected improvements, not a promised number of customers or weekly articles. The AI Lead-Chatbot is an optional add-on to Start and included from Groei Pro (€399 per month). Monthly billing is cancellable monthly; an annual prepaid term lasts twelve months. Check the plan details, usage scope and any additional work before ordering. Published content remains on your own website when the Klusio service ends. Paid services such as new work, monitoring and the hosted chatbot stop according to your subscription. Existing search positions and traffic are not guaranteed to continue: competitors, search systems and your own website can change.
Discuss your own website and workload
In a 30-minute demo, Sicco can show the research, proposed work and available integration for your business. Bring the services you want to promote and the work you can realistically take on. You can also request a free growth scan before deciding. Neither route starts a subscription or authorises publication.

Questions and answers
Is Klusio a direct replacement for Homedeal?
No. Klusio does not sell a queue of available jobs. It researches and improves your own website, with authorised execution and measurement. Use it when you want to invest in that channel and can allow time for development.
Can I use Klusio and Homedeal together?
Yes. Keep useful sources of work while building your website. There is no fixed month by which your own enquiries will replace platform enquiries. Compare their contribution before reducing anything.
How soon can Klusio produce results?
A configured chatbot can help existing visitors after activation. Organic discovery and enquiries take different amounts of time on different websites. The growth guarantee is available only on Groei Marktleider and Klusio Partner with Klusio running fully on autopilot. It does not apply to Groei Start, Groei Pro, self-managed execution or a workflow requiring approval before publication. The comparison uses 30 complete days of organic Google impressions and clicks after the first successful Klusio publication against the preceding 30 days in Search Console. If neither increases and the conditions are met, the first paid month’s subscription fee is refundable. Enquiries, revenue, rankings and AI mentions are not substitute guarantee measures.
What does Klusio cost?
Groei Start costs €199 per month excluding VAT. The plan pays for a recurring rhythm of selected improvements, not a promised number of customers or weekly articles.

Check the plan details, usage scope and any additional work before ordering.
What if I do not have a website?
Klusio works on your own website. If you do not have one, discuss a separate website project and its cost first. If you already have a site, we check the supported connection, editable areas and permissions. Some work can be executed directly; other changes need a complete brief for your developer.
