Tempesta Media’s new platform for home service pros is growing fast

MICHIGAN CITY, IN, UNITED STATES, September 10, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ – Following its launch in March 2026, Tempesta Media’s new platform for home service contractors has reached a significant milestone.

The platform now lists over half a million home service contractors. This rapid growth is accompanied by strong demand from homeowners and home service professionals looking for an easier way to book home service projects. 

What’s My Licensed Contractor?

Tempesta Media CEO Michael Marchese explains how My Licensed Contractor came to be: “Home service contractors use pay-per-lead, subscriptions and marketplaces to get jobs, but there is a disconnect. On these platforms, the same lead goes to several contractors. They end up competing on price, bidding as low as possible, and not making any more. My Licensed Contractor is about flipping this model on its head.”

My Licensed Contractor connects homeowners with verified, licensed contractors in their neighborhood, making it easier to find and hire trusted professionals.

How Do the Free and Paid Tiers Work for Contractors?

Thanks to innovative technology Tempesta Media spent months developing, My Licensed Contractor creates profiles for home service contractors automatically.

Contractors can claim their free profile to add information about their services and credentials, or subscribe to one of the paid tiers offered. These paid tiers give contractors more visibility on the platform, along with the possibility to claim a zip code for exclusive access to quote requests from homeowners.

The Pro tier gives contractors “first look” access to new projects in their selected ZIP codes, allowing them to bid on jobs before they are shared with other contractors. The Elite tier goes a step further: Elite contractors are the only ones who see and can bid on new projects in the ZIP codes they have claimed, ensuring true exclusivity and eliminating price wars. 

Why Listing More Than Half a Million Contractors Matters

With the platform now counting over half a million home service contractors, My Licensed Contractor is growing rapidly and showing up in organic search results consistently. 

Traffic is up for the platform, which is well on its way to becoming a go-to tool for both homeowners and home service contractors. 

Marchese continues: “Getting to this first milestone so early in the project is exciting. We’ve worked hard behind the scenes to develop new technologies that help us grow My Licensed Contractor and list more contractors. Getting to this milestone shows the technology works, and we can move to the next stage, which is to keep listing even more home service pros.”

My Licensed Contractor and Your Business

Tempesta Media plans on adding more contractor profiles to My Licensed Contractors: “This is only the first step. We decided to focus on this half million milestone to get our system in place. Now that we know it works, our plan is to cover even more home service businesses.”

For contractors looking for a new customer acquisition channel, this is an exciting opportunity to connect with homeowners planning high-value projects.
