Editorial team

The people who write, check and moderate what is published on Rankyfy Agencies, and what each role can and cannot do.

Roles, and their limits

Every list and article on this site carries the name of the person who wrote it and the person who checked it. The roles below are separated on purpose: nobody who sells anything can touch a ranking, a review or an article.

  • Editor-in-chief (Ranjit Pal Singh, 20 years in SEO): signs the price studies, approves methodology changes, and is responsible for the conflict-of-interest rules on the disclosure page.
  • Rankings editor: writes the editor's notes, FAQs and "how to choose" sections for each list, sets "best for" labels on the top entries, and signs off the publish checklist. Editors cannot change an agency's rank or score.
  • Second editor: reads every buyer guide and every list before it is published, for accuracy and for consistent US English. Nothing ships without this review.
  • Review moderator: reads every review within 48 hours, checks the verification and the fraud signals, publishes or asks for proof, and handles disputes on evidence. Moderators do not write lists or articles.
  • Analyst: runs the crawler, the rank tracker and the monthly AI-citation checks that feed the visibility data. Analysts do not edit copy.
  • Sales: sells Pro plans and labelled sponsored slots. Sales staff have no access to rankings, reviews or articles.

How a piece gets published

  1. An editor drafts from Rankyfy data, agency profiles and first-hand experience. Generative AI tools may help with a first draft; no piece ships without facts, numbers or experience added by a person, and the AI policy is on the editorial policy page.
  2. The US-based editor reviews it.
  3. The publish checklist runs: enough qualifying agencies, editor's notes of the right length, price data from enough agencies, a dated answer, three to five FAQs, unique title and description, no claims the FTC rule forbids on a site with our ownership, and a second person's sign-off.
  4. The page goes live with both names on it and a date that changes only when the content does.

Corrections

Errors are fixed as soon as they are confirmed, and the fix is recorded in the page's changelog with the date. To report one, use the contact page; the grievance officer acknowledges within 24 hours. Each editor's author page lists everything they have signed, so a reader can see the record behind a name.

What the team does not do

Nobody on the team writes reviews, edits a review's text, or moves an agency in a ranking. Nobody accepts payment, gifts or free work from an agency. Editors who have worked for an agency listed here say so on their author page and do not edit the lists that agency appears on.
