    How long should I keep redirects?

    "Follow Up" callouts and charging

    Experience with bark.com?

    I would stay away from Bark. My experience has shown that their leads are useless and overpriced. They use PPC and email marketing to bring in leads. I also get a lot of spam from them with 'we have a client in your area who is looking for your services' My opinion is that their leads are...
