Is your business in this answer?
12 assistants answered “Who are the best solar installers in Tampa, FL?” this week and named 25 solar installers in Tampa, FL. Which side of that list you are on decides whether a customer asking that question ever hears your name.
On the list, and want to be higher?
Rank here is set by how many assistants repeat your name and which sources they read to decide it — the 25 sources above are the ones that shaped this answer. Our platform measures exactly that for one business: the same 12 assistants, daily instead of weekly, which of those sources you appear on and which you don't, and every fix tracked until the answer changes.
You're not on the list
Then for this question you were not in the answer at all — not ranked low, absent from the shortlist, with nothing to tell you it happened. That is the ordinary case: most solar installers in Tampa, FL are never named. Finding out is free.

How is this ranking measured?
Fixed, unbranded consumer questions — including "Who are the best solar installers in Tampa, FL?" — are put to the same assistants every week. Named businesses are resolved to one entity, a name mentioned only once is dropped as unverifiable, and a cell publishes nothing until enough answers accumulate. No business can pay to appear or to rank higher.
The questions we ask
The prompt set is fixed and unbranded, so week-over-week movement means the assistants changed their answer — not that we changed the question.
- Who are the best solar installers in Tampa, FL?
- I need a solar installer in Tampa, FL. Who do you recommend?
- Best affordable solar installer near Tampa?
