About Stackranked
Updated November 8, 2026
Stackranked publishes independent, hands-on rankings of marketing tools — 1,412 tracked, 28 categories ranked, re-tested quarterly, with 0 paid placements.
We started Stackranked because tool roundups are mostly affiliate order dressed up as opinion. Our fix is structural: reviewers run real budgets, scores come with the cons printed, three tools per category get a public "we'd skip it", and every rank movement is dated in the changelog.
Editorial policy
- Scores are editorial opinion from documented hands-on use — never resold vendor claims.
- Pricing is approximate by design and re-verified each cycle; vendors change prices faster than any site updates.
- No sponsored placements, no pay-to-rank, no affiliate-weighted order. Outbound links carry no tracking parameters.
- Corrections are made in place and logged in the changelog.
