Methodology
City Page Scoring Methodology
Published on May 29, 2026 by StackDeal
Published on April 15, 2026 by StackDeal. This page explains how StackDeal thinks about city-page priority and why some local markets are expanded before others.
Priority tends to rise with stronger local signal, enough depth for a real page, workflow usefulness, market fit, and distinction from nearby markets.
What this methodology is not saying
- lower-priority cities are unimportant
- high-priority cities are equally good for everyone
- page depth guarantees opportunity
Frequently asked questions
Does a higher-priority city mean a better market?
Not always. It means a stronger case for deeper public coverage.
Why are city pages important?
Because many workflows are local and city pages support practical decisions.
Why not expand every city equally?
Depth is most useful where local signal and decision value are clearest.
Does clustering matter more than raw city size?
Often yes. Regional pattern quality can matter more than size alone.
What should I do after reading this?
Compare one or two city pages and decide where to focus next.
