The same formula for every business. Full detail on our methodology page.
Who is ranked. An active listing, a phone number, a rating of at least 4.0 and 10 or more public reviews.
Ties. Scores show one decimal; on a tie, more recent reviews rank higher.
Corrections. Report a wrong number; we check the source within five working days.
Businesses can pay us for a claimed profile, leads or competitor reports. None of it touches the score. How we make money

Data note: a missing measure is scored on the evidence we have and flagged on the card. License checks shown are from public records on the date listed.
Public records that size the market. They show how busy a trade is, not how good a business is, so they are not part of the score.
Figures from public sources. Rows tagged "Sample figure" show what our live public-data feeds will supply; they are illustrative, not real counts. Public records size the market and are not part of the score.
Free. Only the businesses you tick receive it. We may earn a fee; it never changes a score.
Each business gets a score from its rating, review volume, recent reviews, years in business, profile completeness and record checks. The highest scores make the list. We compared 10 brake repair shops for Ames.
