Whitefence.com is a comparison shopping site for home services including utilities, insurance, movers, home improvement, pest control, home security, general shopping and more. Users may even use this site to change their address with the USPS. A prominent search box on the home page allows users to search for available cable, television and Internet providers by address. The search results display participating providers and current offers for services including bundled packages.
Other options include selecting a specific category, or using the simplified ‘Finding What You Want’ block which allows users to select from choices such as ‘lower my bills’, ‘shop for service for my new home’ and ‘find the best deals in my area’. Some services return no results for the selected area and users are encouraged to select another service to search for.
