How the order works

We ran 399 searches the way customers search (Google, US, desktop, Oct 20, 2026) and counted how often each directory landed in the first ten results. That count sets the order. Site popularity only breaks ties.

What the list leaves out

Each row shows only what we confirmed. Where we have not confirmed the cost or how listing works, the row says only whether we found a submit page. Link types from other published lists stay off the rows until we test them.

Know one we missed?
