On-Line Home Improvement Leads Ahead Of '07 Says eBuilders

Flying in the face of the gloomy forecasts being predicted for 2008, eBuilders, publishers of consumer advice web sites covering every aspect of home improvements, report that early year lead generation is good and even slightly ahead of expectations.

Numbers of enquiries are up overall but significantly, figures for 'Clean' leads - those that include full contact information - are better year on year compared with 12 months ago.

Peter Jervis, Managing Director of eBuilders Ltd says that the signs are very positive: 'The traffic through our web sites is up overall but significantly, the numbers of high quality leads - what we call Clean Leads - is also very good. Of course, it is early in the year but these represent what is happening now, the mood of homeowners towards improving their homes. This is very encouraging.'

The figures contrast the number of reports about failed window and conservatory companies and other negative economic news, although many believe that the glazing industry is in danger of talking itself into a recession. 'Despite the rather depressing news there is no concrete reason as yet to believe this year will be any different from last,' says Jervis. 'Yes, it will continue to be highly competitive but companies must look to new forms of marketing including the Internet which continues to grow rapidly, as our figures show.'
