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

[tdhoot]

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.

[bspear]

I am not, just found it the other day googling for other stuff

[dewey]

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.
