There is exactly one ranking signal on the paid boards: how much has been paid. No editorial picks, no quality score, no shadow ordering.
$5 is the floor — the least it costs to appear at all. $5 is the raise — pay that much more than the current leader's total and you take #1. They are separate numbers and never collapse into each other.
A bid smaller than the leader's total is perfectly valid. It simply lands at whatever rank the amount buys. Nothing is rejected for being low as long as it clears the $5 floor.
Every payment counts on the all-time board, on today's 24-hour board, and inside your category at the same time. Today's board resets daily; your all-time total never does.
Bidding again with the same URL adds to that listing's total instead of creating a second row. Rank is cumulative.
Free listings cost nothing and rank by views plus clicks. They never mix into the paid boards.
Whole dollars only. Anything below the floor, negative, or unparseable clamps back to $5.
bidrank.app is a public pay-to-rank leaderboard. Products and sites are listed and ordered by one number: how much has been paid for that listing. There is no editorial curation and no hidden score.
Every payment adds to a listing’s running total, and the boards re-sort by that total. Paying again with the same URL tops up the existing listing instead of creating a second row, so rank is cumulative.
The floor is $5. That is the least it costs to appear at all, in whole dollars. Any amount below the floor, negative, or unparseable clamps back to $5.
Pay $5 more than the current leader’s total. The floor ($5) and the raise ($5) are separate numbers: $5 gets you onto the board, and $5 over the leader’s total puts you at the top of it.
There are three ladders: the all-time board, today’s 24-hour board, and your category board. A single payment counts on all three at once. Today’s board resets every day; your all-time total never does.
Yes. Every position on the paid boards is bought, and every price is published next to the listing. That transparency is the product: you can see exactly what #1 cost and exactly what it would cost to take it.
