Fanclap vs. HomeAdvisor

HomeAdvisor (now Angi Leads) sells the same homeowner request to 3–4 contractors. The fastest responder usually wins, and you pay $30–$100 either way. Fanclap replaces that model: own your traffic, own your follow-up, own the customer.

Where HomeAdvisor wins

Volume. If you can answer your phone in under 60 seconds, you'll close some. Predictable for tradespeople with capacity to burn.

Where Fanclap wins

Margin. With Fanclap, your cost per booked job drops as your SEO ranks and your retargeting matures. By month 6, you're typically paying 40–60% less per booked job than Angi Leads.
