Short answer: Earn your place with a clear niche, public proof and outreach to editors. To skip the wait, buy a featured spot. On Coinranking, a #1 placement in a listicle costs $1,499, or $1,798 if our team writes the article.
People rarely search for one brand. They search for “best crypto wallets” or “best crypto APIs.” Then they pick from the list.
AI assistants work the same way. When asked for recommendations, they often pull from these lists. Read more about getting cited by AI assistants. If your project is missing, it is invisible at the moment of choice.
Why listicles carry so much weight
- They match buying searches. “Best” searches come from people who are about to choose.
- They rank well. Lists are easy to scan, so readers stay and search engines notice.
- They get quoted. Assistants and other writers reuse list rankings.
- They build trust. Being named next to known brands makes you look established.
Five ways to earn a spot
1. Own a clear niche
“Best wallet” is crowded. “Best wallet for Solana NFTs” is not. A narrow niche makes you easier to include.
2. Make your strengths easy to check
Editors compare fees, features and supported chains. Put these on one clear page on your site.
3. Collect public proof
Reviews, user numbers, audits and media mentions help editors justify your spot.
4. Reach out to editors
Find lists in your niche. Send the editor a short note with what makes you different and one link to your facts page.
5. Keep your facts current
Lists get updated. If your fees or features change, tell editors. Old facts can push you down or off the list.
When to pay for a featured spot
Earning spots takes months, and you don’t control the ranking. A paid featured placement makes sense when:
- You are launching and need visibility now
- Your niche has few lists yet
- You want the #1 position, not a mention near the bottom

How to make the most of your #1 spot
- Pick a list title people search for. Use a real search phrase, like “best crypto payment gateways.”
- Give a specific reason you are #1. “Lowest fees for stablecoin payouts” beats “best overall.”
- Include a short comparison table. Readers and assistants both use it.
- Link to a page that converts. Send readers to a sign-up or pricing page, not your blog.
