Getting Started

Consumers can then begin their search by using the "what are you looking for" search box. Try it - it's smart!

Professionals start by creating (or claiming) a Rankipedia profile (free!) and then just telling Rankipedia your story. Don't worry, Rankipedia will walk you through the steps you need to get started right away.

I'm in a hurry!

Perfect! Just type a few words into the search bar and Rankipedia will go to work for you right away!

Can Rankipedia be “Gamed”?

No way! This is the biggest complaint users have with searching the internet. You only see results from professionals with big ad budgets who “buy their way to the top”. That doesn't tell you anything about how they work or what makes them great.

Rankipedia can't be bought or gamed. The results you see are based on your particular needs and specifically on how the professional performs in the areas you need. When you get results from Rankipedia, you know they are reliable and accurate – not purchased.

What If I Want to Game Rankipedia?

We don't recommend it. Rankipedia is the first and only truly artificially-intelligent, rating/ranking system anywhere today. It detects all sorts of “gaming activity” through a very sophisticated, extensive “machine learning” system. Professionals who try actually lose ranking. The system will automatically drop your place on listings and you'll see your rankings going down further and further to the point where you won't appear anywhere. We'd hate to see that!

Rankipedia is built on what makes professionals great at what they do. All of the work professionals put in to provide great products and services not only get you noticed, but connect you with consumers who really want professionals who are the best for them and their needs. Tell your story! Be complete and interract with Rankipedia. It'll help you continue to grow and to stand out.

Want even more from Rankipedia?

Consumers and experts can register for free with Rankipedia too! By doing so (using our quick, easy registration tool in the menu at the top) you'll be part of the “Rankipedia Community” where you can start adding your own ratings, comments and much more! Even better, you'll start earning points with everything you do and these can be redeemed for valuable services, products, discounts, “member-only” specials and much more – just by doing what you came to the internet for in the first place! Pretty cool, huh?

How does Rankipedia Work?

Actually, pretty great! Professionals come to Rankipedia to tell their stories – their “business philosophy”, what they've done to be great, who they work with, their tools, staffing, offices, education, etc. All of this information helps them to target specific consumers who want and need their services/products and want to do business in the same way.

But it doesn't end there! In fact, by rating professionals, connecting with others on social media, creating a network of talent, etc., professional's become even more valuable to their communities and markets. Having other professionals rate their work also gives them greater credibility and thus, they become better ranked to help meet their markets.

Rankipedia is truly the answer to the original promise of the internet! Consumers can find the right professionals for their needs and professionals can target the right consumers for their products and services. It's a match made in heaven!

I'm an industry expert – can I get involved with Rankipedia?

You bet! If you are an industry “watchdog”, blogger, vlogger, writer, consultant or other type of expert who works directly with or reviews professionals, you can also register with Rankipedia and help consumers even more by sharing your expertise. You begin by registering with Rankipedia as an “expert”. Rankipedia will take a short time to vet your credentials and upon approval, you're ready to go!

What if I have a great experience with a professional and want to help others find them?

Fantastic! Be sure to rate the professional and their work. Add your reviews and invite your friends, family and social media contacts to experience what you have too. All this takes is a single click!

What if I have a bad experience with a professional?

Sometimes professionals and consumers simply aren't a good match. Fortunately, with Rankipedia, this doesn't happen very often. If you aren't happy with the services or products you've received, rate them on the professional's page too. This actually helps the professional to better target consumers who will benefit more closely!
