Scores come from Google, Clutch and Yelp reviews — never from paid placements, and never set by the agencies themselves. Where an agency appears on more than one platform, the ratings combine in proportion to the reviews behind each. We apply a Bayesian adjusted average to prevent small-sample distortion (a 2-review 5.0-star agency shouldn't outrank a 200-review 4.8-star one):
adjusted_score = (v / (v + m)) * R + (m / (v + m)) * Cv— total reviews across all offices and sourcesm— prior weight (20)R— the agency's weighted average scoreC— the platform-wide meanSo with a global mean of 4.2: an agency with 5 reviews at 5.0 scores 4.36, while one with 200 reviews at 4.8 scores 4.75. The second outranks the first because the score is backed by more evidence.
Multi-office agencies get a single weighted score across locations. Every listing is human-reviewed before publication. Scores refresh hourly. Read the full methodology →
