RECD Rankings are editorial sector rankings refreshed annually. Each ranking is built from public data, verifiable sources, and editorial review. Rankings include providers outside our directory — credibility is prioritised over catalogue growth.
Methodology and weights are published in full, and editorial standards are documented separately. We do not accept payment for ranking positions. Featured (paid) status on directory category pages does not affect rankings. Disagree with a placement? Email [email protected] — acknowledged within 24 hours, resolved within 10 business days.
