Huntington is a historic mining and manufacturing city located on the western border of West Virginia. It’s historically had a very strong economy based on coal mining, steel production, oil drilling and refining, and chemical production. These industries have also helped the city grow as a whole and have contributed to the highrise architecture and large city streets.
Although the city’s population has decreased significantly in the wake of deindustrialization, it still has a thriving young community and is a great place to own a small local business or service.
Our performance lead generation is designed for Huntington businesses looking for the best way to spread the word about their services to potential customers. While traditional marketing methods like billboards and paid ads are still good methods for brand recognition, they often do little to bring you real, paying customers.
