Research checked September 15, 2026
How the ranking works
Every provider is scored from 0 to 5 in ten categories. Each category score is divided by 5, multiplied by its weight and added to a 100-point total. The same model is used throughout the directory; no provider receives a different weighting.
The evidence hierarchy starts with official sites and location pages, then adds Google Maps or local-listing evidence, verified B2B reviews, exact company directory profiles, social identities and named client accounts. Where a platform did not publicly expose a field, that field is simply left out of the page.
