What a directory's indexation rate means, how to check a single page yourself, how many checks it takes before we publish a rate, and where each measured rate appears.

What dofollow, nofollow, sponsored and ugc mean on a link, what each changes for search ranking, and how we verify the rel on real listing pages.

What it means when a directory is alive, dead, blocking our crawler or not yet verified, and how a listing that disappears is recorded rather than deleted.

A product's footprint is every directory listing we have observed for it, each with a first-seen and last-seen date. History is kept, never rewritten.

How the visibility score is computed from rated directories, when it is withheld, and why the leaderboard's votes view is kept apart from it.

Every published number is measured by our own crawler against real pages. The method lives on the methodology page; this page is the orientation.

The scan reads the index we have already built, so it answers in seconds and no crawler touches your site. Counts are free; the breakdown costs an email.

Ownership is proven with a meta tag or DNS record, and the badge has to be on the page too. What a completed claim gets you, and what pauses if the badge comes down.

The report audits one product against every tracked directory: live listings, wasted spend and ranked next steps, built from measurements we already hold.

Signed-in users download every listing behind their numbers as a ten-column CSV. The export is not gated on a paid plan, and there is no API yet.

One-sentence definitions of the terms used across lineofsites, each linked to the concept page or the surface where the number is published.

Where the numbers come from, how often they refresh, how to file a correction, and what happens to the data when we are shown to be wrong.
