Advertising Disclosure
Disclosure of advertising and affiliate relationships
Important: IndexTop.io may receive commission from services listed on our site through affiliate (referral) programs. This helps us maintain the site and provide free content.
How we make money
IndexTop.io is an independent information resource. To sustain the site we use the following monetisation methods:
- Referral programs: When you click through to a service from our site and make a purchase, we may receive a commission from that service. This does not affect the price for you.
- Partnerships: Some services may be our partners, which means a closer working relationship in exchange for commission.
Does this affect our ratings?
No. Our ratings and reviews are based on objective criteria:
- Service functionality and features
- Indexing speed
- Price-to-quality ratio
- User reviews
- Reliability and uptime
- Quality of customer support
The presence or absence of a referral program for a service does not affect its position in our ranking. We aim to provide honest, objective information.
Referral links
Links to services on our site may contain referral parameters. When you click through such a link:
- You pay the same price as a direct visitor
- The service pays us a small commission out of their margin
- This helps us continue working on the site
If you prefer not to use a referral link, you can always go to the service's website directly by typing the address into your browser.
Transparency
We value our users' trust and strive for maximum transparency:
- We openly disclose referral relationships
- We do not hide information about our monetisation methods
- We do not publish paid reviews without clear labelling
- We do not accept payment to boost ranking positions
Editorial independence
IndexTop.io's editorial policy is fully independent of commercial relationships:
- Review authors do not know about referral agreements
- Rankings are built on objective data
- Negative reviews are published alongside positive ones
- We can criticise services we have partnerships with
