Methodology
How we rank businesses
Our score measures visibility infrastructure — not service quality.
The Growth Infrastructure Score is calculated only from signals we can observe publicly: whether a business has a working website, whether it appears in local search, whether contact paths are reachable, and whether its public information is consistent.
A score is only shown when an evaluation has actually been run. Unevaluated businesses show “Not yet evaluated.” A low score is not a judgement of the work a business does.
Placement, inclusion and scores cannot be purchased.
