            config.MapHttpAttributeRoutes();

            config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
                name: "SmallBizApi",
                routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}",
                defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional }
            );
 config.Formatters.Clear();
        // config.Formatters.Add(new XmlMediaTypeFormatter());
       // config.Formatters.Insert(0, new JsonpMediaTypeFormatter(new JsonMediaTypeFormatter()));
        config.Formatters.Add(new JsonMediaTypeFormatter());

try replacing

config.Formatters.Add(new JsonMediaTypeFormatter());

with

config.Formatters.JsonFormatter.SupportedMediaTypes.Add(new MediaTypeHeaderValue("text/html"));

i did this on a recent project. and it worked just fine.
