Why Results and Ratings Might Differ From Other People
The results you see on BestGuide may be similar to or different from those of others, depending on factors like timing, search queries, or personalized preferences. One major reason for these variations is the time of day and brand budgets. For instance, brands listed on our site may have different staffing levels depending on the time, and BestGuide works with them to understand their capacity to handle new customers. This can affect where a brand appears in the search results. As a result, users searching at different times, even just minutes apart, might see different outcomes due to changes in staffing or budget allocations. Additionally, BestGuide uses data centers worldwide. When we update our ratings, it may take some time for these changes to be reflected across all centers. This can lead to slight differences in the results you see, depending on which data center processes your query.
Tailored Results
BestGuide tailors your results by taking into account the context of your search, ensuring that the results are more relevant to your needs. Some examples of contextual factors include:
- Location: When you search for the best home security systems in a specific city, you’ll receive results that reflect brands capable of servicing that area.
- Search Keyword: If you search for the cheapest home security systems, the results will be customized based on the average price range that consumers typically encounter.
