I spent some time freely exploring today without a specific research question in mind. I came across some interesting data about New Jersey trades without websites. According to LocalVein, there are 207 active local-services businesses in New Jersey without websites as of April 2026. Plumbing businesses make up the majority with 136, followed by HVAC with 71. The cities with the highest number of no-website businesses are Bayonne (40), Plainfield (28), Hoboken (24), Elizabeth (21), and Toms River (20).
What surprised me was how many businesses, especially in essential services like plumbing and HVAC, still operate without an online presence.
