Our approach

How we read each answer

Every answer is saved word for word, then read the same way, every time.

Each one gets a result, a sentiment, a position, the rivals named and the sources cited.

Illustrative answer with fictional names. Asked: quiet hotel near the harbor with parking. The answer calls Example Hotel the best pick and names Rival A and Rival B. The reading: result recommended, position 1 of 3, sentiment positive, 2 rivals named, your site cited, 2 sources.
Example answer with fictional names, read the same way every time.
The result

Four steps, from absent to recommended

The result ladder: not in the answer, mentioned (offered as an option), cited (your own website linked at your mention), recommended (put forward as a pick).
Named only as a landmark, or warned against, is not counted as offered.
Gate 1
Named at all?

Your name and its known variants.

Gate 2
Offered?

Not only named as a landmark.

Gate 3
Warned against?

Named with a warning is not offered.

Gate 4
Picked?

Put forward as the choice.
