How are providers ranked?

SourcingLine uses a proprietary ranking algorythim that is constantly adjusted as we recieve new information on providers. Each provider is assigned a unique score for each area of service. The key criteria used in generating rankings are as follows:

  1. Profile and Portfolio - Provider profiles and portfolios of work are evaluated based on completeness and quality. Providers with higher quality profiles and portfolios rank higher.
  2. Feedback and References - Providers can collect feedback on SourcingLine and submit references for evaluation. Providers with high quality, verified references and feedback rank higher.
  3. Focus - Providers that focus in a specific services area will be ranked higher in related directories. e.g. providers that focus on web design will rank higher in the web design directories.
