How does Rankoff ranking work?
Rankoff orders public websites and social profiles by their settled sponsored totals. A higher settled total places a link higher on its selected market board. The amount beside each listing is the advertising value already recorded for that link.
A new payment does not create ownership of the listing. It adds advertising value to the normalized public link. If several people sponsor the same eligible link, their settled payments are added to one total. This allows a business, customer, supporter or agency to contribute to the same public placement.
Rankoff contains 17 markets. A listing must be placed in the market that describes its business or activity. A hardware retailer may use Retail & Ecommerce, while a pickleball facility may use Sports & Fitness. The type of link does not determine the market: an Instagram profile can represent a retailer, clinic, property agent or creator.
Each market has its own board and its own published price for the first position. A placement in one market does not automatically determine its position in another market.
Every live listing has a permanent public page recording its current position, settled total and verified click count. Clicks provide reporting information but do not set the placement order. 1 live listing, RM 5 settled and 47 verified clicks
Rankoff 如何计算排名？
Rankoff 按照公开网站或社交账号的已结算赞助总额排列位置。总额较高的链接，会显示在所选市场中较前的位置。每个条目旁的金额，就是该链接已经记录的广告展示价值。
付款不会取得条目的所有权，而是为经过标准化处理的公开链接增加赞助金额。如果多人赞助同一个符合条件的链接，所有已结算付款会累积成同一个总额。因此，商家、客户、支持者或营销机构都可以为同一个公开位置付款。
Rankoff 设有 17 个市场。条目应选择最符合其业务或活动的市场。例如，五金零售商可选择零售与电商，匹克球场馆可选择运动与健身。链接平台不会决定商业分类：Instagram 账号可以属于零售商、诊所、房产经纪或创作者。
每个市场都有自己的榜单和公开首位价格。一个条目在某个市场的位置，不会自动决定它在另一个市场的位置。
每个正式条目都有永久公开页面，显示当前位置、已结算总额及验证点击数。点击数据用于报告，不参与位置计算。1 个正式条目、RM 5 已结算、47 次验证点击
FAQ / 常见问题
What happens when the same link receives another payment? / 同一个链接再次获得付款会怎样？
The new settled payment is added to that link’s existing sponsored total.
新的已结算付款会加入该链接现有的赞助总额。
Does the payer own the listing? / 付款人会拥有该条目吗？
No. Payment purchases advertising placement and does not provide ownership or editing rights.
不会。付款购买的是广告位置，不会获得所有权或编辑权。
Do clicks affect the position? / 点击数会影响位置吗？
No. Verified clicks are reporting data. The placement order is based on settled sponsored totals.
不会。验证点击属于报告数据，位置按照已结算赞助总额排列。
Does the social platform determine the market? / 社交平台会决定市场分类吗？
No. The market describes the business or activity, not the platform carrying the link.
不会。市场分类描述的是业务或活动，不是承载链接的平台。
