Wie wir testen

Our rankings are built on real, reproducible, timestamped data — not opinions or paid placements. Every number on a review maps to a measurement.

Performance

We run Google Lighthouse (via PageSpeed Insights, mobile + desktop) and capture our own navigation timing from Cloudflare's edge. Metrics — TTFB, FCP, LCP, TBT, CLS, Speed Index — are stored as a time-series so you can see trends, not a single cherry-picked run.

Reproducibility

Where possible we benchmark an identical small test site on each host (same theme, same content) so comparisons are apples-to-apples. Where a canonical test site isn't yet provisioned, we measure the provider's reference site and label it accordingly.

Uptime

We check monitored endpoints every five minutes and report rolling 30/90/365-day uptime.

Screenshots

All UI screenshots are real captures from automated browser sessions — never AI-generated.

Scoring

The Benchmarked Score is a transparent weighted blend of performance, load speed, reliability, and value. The pillars and weights are shown on every review — no opaque black-box number.

Freshness & affiliates

Coupons are re-verified on a schedule; countdowns appear only on real expiries and "used" counts come only from real clicks. We may earn a commission via links, which never affects rankings.
