How We Work

Almanac is built on a simple principle: give businesses the honest, data-backed information they need to choose the right agency partner, with no hidden agendas and no paid placements influencing the results.

Discovery & Research

We continuously scan the market for agencies across every discipline: digital marketing, design, development, branding, and more. Profiles are built from agency websites, portfolios, and public review data.

Evaluation & Scoring

Each agency is scored against a consistent framework covering quality of work, client satisfaction, team expertise, industry recognition, and transparency. No pay-to-play: every score is earned, not bought.

Review Aggregation

We aggregate independent client reviews into each agency's rating. Our AI summarizes sentiment patterns, highlighting what agencies consistently do well and where they fall short.

Ranking & Publication

Agencies are ranked within curated lists based on their scores and specialisations. Rankings are updated regularly so you always see current information, not a static snapshot from years ago.

Ongoing Monitoring

We don't just rank agencies once and forget them. We monitor for significant changes, such as new case studies, ownership changes, or declining reviews, and update profiles accordingly.

Editorial Independence

Our editorial team operates independently of our commercial team. Agencies cannot pay to improve their ranking position. We may offer optional listing enhancements (additional details, featured placement), but these never affect rank.

Questions or corrections?

If you believe information about an agency is inaccurate, or if you represent an agency that would like to update its profile, please reach out to our editorial team. We review every request. Contact us at editorial@agencyalmanac.com.
