INDIANAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Angie’s List (NASDAQ: ANGI) today announced it ended 2016 with more than five million members, an increase of more than 50 percent from a year ago.
“This milestone is a testament to the value we provide to our customers,” said Angie’s List president & CEO Scott Durchslag. “It also demonstrates the eagerness consumers have to be part of the Angie’s List community and validates our decision to make it even easier to join us.”
In July 2016, the company announced that access to its more than 10 million verified reviews on home services professionals had become available free-of-charge in addition to two new premium membership tiers that offer guarantees and value-added services beyond the reviews.
“Angie’s List remains solidly grounded on a foundation of quality, reliability and authenticity,” Durchslag said. “Our mission from the start has been to relentlessly elevate the local services experience for members and service pros, and we continue to focus on delivering – and expanding upon – the most comprehensive array of services in the home services industry.”
Angie's List helps consumers find high-quality, service pros and products to complete home improvement projects. The company surpassed the one million paid household mark in October 2011 and topped two million paid members in April 2013 under its original business model.
