I have Thumbtack and don't pay anything for a bid. This site is good for ranking on google.
At least people will notice you and they can call you directly and they really don't have to place a bid unless they are a "Priceshopper". You are not going to get a lot of business off thumbtack. I have had thumbtack for 2 years and last summer only got 2 jobs. 1. $220 & 2. $65. You get notified by e-mail when a customer requests carpet cleaning. In my area thumbtack doesn't charge for bids so the customer contacts us directly. It is mostly a price shopping site.
