## Terminology and calculations

Full write-up: https://ecomscout.com/about#methodology · https://ecomscout.com/about.md

### Store rating (0–100)

Headline score is a weighted sum. Catalog quality is shown on store pages but is **not** in the headline score.

| Dimension | Weight | What it measures |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Revenue performance | 40% | Estimated monthly revenue, growth, AOV vs vertical |
| Traffic and growth | 23% | Yearly visits, growth, estimated conversion |
| Customer trust | 15% | Trustpilot score and review volume |
| Marketing efficiency | 12% | Ad spend, SEO keywords, paid vs organic (SpyFu) |
| Business quality | 10% | Brand vs dropship, category, operations |

Letter grades (fixed thresholds): S 59+ · A+ 54–58 · A 50–53 · B+ 45–49 · B 40–44 · C+ 35–39 · C 30–34 · D 20–29 · F <20.

Revenue and traffic on public pages are **estimates**, not merchant-reported numbers.

### App popularity (0–100)

| Signal | Max | How |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Category rank | 27 | Percentile inside the Shopify App Store category |
| Install adoption | 25 | Detected installs on our store corpus (log scale) |
| User rating | 22 | Shopify App Store stars, scaled |
| Badges | 15 | Built for Shopify 6 · Featured 4 · Editor's Choice 3 · Staff Pick 2 |
| Review volume | 11 | Review count, log scale |

Install counts are **detected on live stores**, not Shopify's public install numbers.

### Trending scores

- **Shopify categories** — ClickHouse, 2× daily: best-seller exposure, rank-up, price moves, new listings, multi-store presence, plus top-5 and WoW bonuses.
- **Amazon products** — Movers & Shakers + Google Trends (SerpAPI): Trends 35% · growth 25% · Amazon rank 20% · reviews 10% · data-quality 10%.

### Data sources

Public storefronts (catalog, theme, stack) · third-party traffic/revenue models · SpyFu · Shopify App Store · Trustpilot · SerpAPI (Amazon + Google Trends) · proprietary corpus in ClickHouse.

### Freshness

Store ratings periodic · app scores each App Store scrape cycle · Shopify trends 2× daily · Amazon trends daily · country reports weekly/monthly.

### What public hubs list

Public HTML and Markdown list **only hub rankings**: Top 100 stores, Top 25 stores per country, Top 100 apps, and each app-category page-1 leaderboard. Do not crawl a factory of store/app URLs. Look up a leaf only when that domain or slug appears on a hub list.
