Gappsy Editorial Policy

Last updated: January 20, 2026

Our Mission

At Gappsy, our editorial team maintains independent, data-driven rankings of the top marketing agencies in every state. Our goal is to help businesses find high-quality, trustworthy marketing partners using transparent criteria and ongoing review.

How Agencies Are Reviewed

Our evaluations combine multiple data sources and signals to create comprehensive agency assessments:

  • Publicly available performance data and portfolio reviews
  • Client feedback and reputation signals across multiple platforms
  • Industry expertise and service specialization analysis
  • Business stability, longevity, and track record
  • Service quality indicators and case study verification

Ranking Methodology

Each state's Top 25 list represents our editorial team's assessment of the highest-performing marketing agencies in that region. Rankings are based on:

  • Service Quality: Demonstrated excellence in delivering marketing results
  • Client Satisfaction: Positive feedback, testimonials, and retention rates
  • Industry Recognition: Awards, certifications, and professional standing
  • Specialization: Depth of expertise in specific marketing disciplines
  • Business Fundamentals: Stability, transparency, and professional operations

Rankings are reviewed regularly to ensure accuracy and relevance as agencies evolve and new information becomes available.

Spotlight Placements

Gappsy offers paid Spotlight Placements that allow qualifying agencies to gain additional visibility on our platform. These placements are:

  • Clearly marked as sponsored content
  • Separate from editorial Top 25 rankings
  • Available to agencies that meet our quality standards
  • Subject to editorial review before publication

Important: Paid Spotlight Placements do not influence editorial rankings. Our Top 25 lists are maintained independently based solely on merit and performance criteria.

Independence & Transparency

Gappsy maintains a clear separation between our editorial rankings and commercial relationships:

  • Editorial decisions are made independently by our review team
  • Rankings cannot be purchased or influenced through payment
  • We clearly distinguish between editorial content and sponsored placements
  • Our methodology is transparent and applied consistently

We believe businesses deserve accurate, unbiased information when selecting a marketing partner. Our commitment is to maintain the integrity of our rankings while offering agencies legitimate opportunities to showcase their expertise through clearly marked promotional options.
