For business owners
Rankings cannot be bought. Here is what can.
Every position on PicksByTown is set by public data and stays that way. Owners and sponsors can buy the things that sit beside the ranking: a verified badge, a direct link, corrected details, a labeled card, a useful guide.
Four ways to work with us
| Product | What you get | Price | How to start |
|---|---|---|---|
| Claimed listing | Does not change your rank. Verified Owner badge on your listing, a direct (followed) link to your website, corrected phone, address and website, and tap-to-call on phones. | $49 per year | Open your business on its city page and use Own this? Claim it. |
| Verified Pro listing | Does not change your rank. Everything in Claimed, plus up to six photos of your work, a description in your own words, and your hours. | $149 per year | Same claim link; choose Pro on the claim page. |
| Sponsored card | Does not change any rank. One clearly labeled card above the ranked list on a single city or service page, with your name, a line about you, your phone and your link. Readers see the label every time. | $99 per month | Email us with the page you want. |
| Sponsored guide | A useful 800 to 1,200 word guide on our blog, labeled Sponsored, with one link to your site marked rel=sponsored. It stays up permanently. It does not rank you or anyone else. | $250 one time | Email us with your topic. |
What we do not sell
- Rank. No product on this page moves a business up or down. The order is computed from public signals and is the same for paying and non-paying businesses.
- Leads. We do not collect reader details and we do not forward anyone to you. Readers call or click you directly from your listing.
- Reader data. We collect none to sell.
How claims work
Submit the claim form on your listing, pay through Stripe, and reply to your receipt with any corrections (Pro owners send photos, description and hours the same way). Changes go live at the next daily rebuild. Your listing shows a Verified Owner badge and the date you verified. Cancel any time; the badge stays through the end of the paid year.
