Thumbtack Revamp Makes It Even Easier To Find A Service Provider

Thumbtack.com, a site that helps people find local service providers (from house cleaners to DJs to math tutors, to use the three examples on the company homepage), unveiled a big redesign earlier this week. Co-founder Sander Daniels says the original version of Thumbtack tried to make finding a service provider easier by avoiding the standard search interface ? people posted what job they were looking for, then Thumbtack connected those posters with a professionals who were qualified to do the work. That's still the basic idea, but the new site is "significantly easier and more sophisticated," Daniels says. Now, when you type in the general category that you're looking for, Thumbtack helps you with the listing by asking questions about the basic information that you'll need to enter.
