The main thing I'd want to know is whether companies pay to appear in the Top Startups list. I learned Breakoutlist does this a few years back and it destroyed their credibility for me.

Really? There's no indication breakoutlist does that on their site? Or they just don't disclose if companies paid

Yeah, they don't disclose which is why it's terrible.
Are you behind Topstartups? If so, you still haven't answered the question I posed for your website.

There's an easy way to pay your way into that list: pay high salaries.

I suspect sarcasm, as paying some list for a higher ranking, is cheaper than paying loads of people for a higher ranking.
