Affiliate disclosure
Where The Rank Index earns money, where it does not, and the rule that never bends: commercial relationships do not affect scores or positions.
Affiliate relationships never affect a TRI Score or a ranking position.
Some outbound links on this site may earn a commission if you subscribe or buy. Those links exist because we would have linked to the product anyway — the ranking is calculated before any commercial consideration, and no partner sees a position in advance.
We do not accept payment for placement, for a higher score, or for the removal of a criticism. If a vendor asks, the request itself gets recorded on the product page.
Sponsored content, if we ever run it, will sit outside the ranking, will be labelled "Sponsored", and will not carry a TRI Score.
