How BestGuide Works
Common questions about our rankings and methodology.
Our editorial team evaluates each company across more than 30 criteria, including pricing transparency, customer satisfaction scores, regulatory standing, and real-world performance data. Every ranking reflects our independent assessment — no company can pay to improve its position.
BestGuide maintains a strict editorial independence policy. Advertisers have no influence over our scores or rankings. Our methodology is publicly documented, our team actively updates ratings as market conditions change, and we always disclose our compensation model.
No. While some companies on our site are advertisers, advertising relationships never affect ranking order, scores, or editorial content. Our ratings are determined entirely by our evaluation criteria. You can read our full advertiser disclosure policy for details.
Rankings are reviewed on a rolling basis — typically every 60–90 days per category, or immediately when a major industry development warrants it. Each guide displays the date it was last updated so you always know how current the information is.
Absolutely. If you spot an error, have feedback about a company, or want to suggest a category we should cover, our team is reachable through the Contact page. We read every message and respond to substantive inquiries within two business days.
