Advertising & Lead Disclosure

Display advertising

As of this writing, bartlettguide.com shows no display ads and earns no advertising revenue. The site plans to apply for an ad network (such as Google AdSense) once it has genuine readership. When ads appear, this page will name the network, and any ad unit will be clearly labeled as an advertisement.

Listings are never for sale

• No sponsored placements. Businesses cannot pay to be listed, to rank higher, or to get a better write-up in any guide.
• No paid reviews. Service guides are researched from public sources; no business has paid for coverage.
• No affiliate links. The site currently contains no affiliate links and earns no commissions on purchases.

Quote and lead forms

Quote-request forms on service pages currently send your request directly to the site operator, who responds personally. No contractor network or lead marketplace operates on the site today, and no fee is charged to visitors for requesting a quote.

If the site ever connects visitors with local contractors for a fee or referral payment, that relationship will be disclosed on the quote form itself and on this page before it begins.

What this means for you

Guides on this site are written for readers, not advertisers. If money ever changes how a recommendation is presented, you'll read about it here first.
