The Locallista System
Instead of paid placements, random listings, or unverified reviews, we created a system where quality is measured, monitored, and earned. Every professional is screened. Every client is contacted. Every review counts.
Here’s exactly how the system works - and why it shifts the power back to you.
Unbiased
- 1.
Service providers displayed only by their score order.
- 2.
We don’t allow advertising - no one can pay to appear higher on the list.
- 3.
We never give preference – all businesses in a category pay the same fees to Locallista.
- 4.
Every review gets published - good or bad.
- 5.
A business’s total score is the average of all reviews it has received.
Strict
- 6.
We select and screen each business that asks to join.
- 7.
We only list great businesses, based on reviews collected by phone from real clients who hired them in the past.
- 8.
We hold the businesses accountable to very high standards.
- 9.
We contact every Locallista user after they hire a professional to collect a review.
- 10.
Reviews are usually collected by phone to ensure fairness, accuracy, and sufficient detail.
- 11.
Businesses that drop below a score of 8.5 are removed.
The result:
The power shifts to the client’s hands
Because service providers know every client is contacted for a review, they consistently deliver their best work. In practice, this puts real power back in the client’s hands.
