What Does AltaVista Strategic Partners Do?

Specializing in marketing for home service and contracting businesses since 2011, AltaVista Strategic Partners expertise is building and executing online marketing campaigns. The goal of these campaigns is simple – when people search for services online, make sure they find your business, read great reviews, and can easily contact you.

Following this approach, they have helped hundreds of contractors increase their sales while lowering their overall cost per lead. At the same time, their approach is focused on eliminating three constant challenges for home service contractors:

1. Cutting off low quality pay per lead services like HomeAdvisor and Thumbtack
2. Eliminating canvassing neighborhoods for retail home service leads
3. Targeting the right neighborhoods and reducing out of area leads
