Editorial Policy
Last updated October 2026
SMMAnalysis is a data-driven comparison and research platform for the social media marketing (SMM) industry. People use our prices and rankings to make spending decisions, so the trust of that data matters more than anything else we do. This page sets out the standards we hold ourselves to.
1. Independence
We are not an SMM panel and we do not sell, resell or deliver any social media service, and we take no commission on transactions between you and a provider. Rankings, scores and prices are computed from the same data and rules for every panel, which is what lets us publish an unfavorable price or a low community score.
Ownership disclosure
SMMAnalysis's owner operates a small number of listed panels — DaoSMM (daosmm.com) and Seguidores Global (seguidoresglobal.com / seguidoresglobal.net) — and SMMAnalysis sells clearly labelled sponsored placements. Neither affects rankings, scores or the prices we show.Each owner-operated panel shows this disclosure on its panel page: "Disclosure: this panel is operated by the owner of SMMAnalysis. It is ranked by the same data and rules as every other panel."
2. Where our data comes from
Prices, service counts and delivery figures come from the service catalogs panels make available to their users; we collect them, refresh them daily, and store them with full price history. We do not accept panel-supplied numbers in place of what we observe directly. Full detail is on our data sources and methodology pages.
3. How rankings and scores are produced
Community scores come from votes by registered users who have used a service — panels cannot buy, edit or remove them. Rankings are computed from observed price and community data by a fixed formula, documented on how rankings work. No human manually promotes a panel in the rankings.
4. Advertising is always separate
Panels can pay for a sponsored slot. Sponsored slots appear next to — never inside — organic rankings, are clearly labeled "Sponsored", and neveraffects a panel's position in organic rankings, its community score, or the prices we report. Paying us cannot move a panel up a comparison. See the advertising page.
5. Accuracy & corrections
Automated data can be wrong — a panel changes a URL, renames a category, or publishes a bad rate. When we learn of an error we verify it against the source panel and correct the listing, usually within one daily refresh cycle. If you spot something wrong, report it via our contact page and we will check it. We do not quietly delete unfavorable data; we only correct what is demonstrably inaccurate.
6. Freshness
Pages that depend on live data show the date they were last recomputed. Year-stamped guides ("… 2026") are reviewed and updated each year; we do not fake update dates to appear fresher than we are.
