Attract your next client with Clutch

Clutch’s in-depth and verified reviews offer comprehensive details about each project, covering the journey from start to finish. With information on pricing, timespan, industry expertise, and project outcome, Clutch enables buyers to make informed hiring decisions.

Clutch employs a robust verification process to ensure the authenticity and reliability of reviews. This process helps maintain the integrity of reviews on the platform, providing buyers with trustworthy insights when evaluating service providers. Verification goes beyond the reviewer’s identity, confirming the connection between the reviewer, their company, and the service provided. This extra layer ensures no conflict of interest. Buyers can identify these verified reviews by the check mark in the bottom-right corner of the review card.

Clutch offers online and phone interviews for sponsoring service providers. Phone interviews allow clients to share project details verbally with a member of the Clutch operations team. By offering both options, Clutch makes it convenient for your clients to leave you a verified review.

With access to up-to-date information such as how much a service provider charges for their services, rate of delivery, industry expertise and the results of the project, buyers can feel confident that they’ve found the right partner for their project on Clutch.

Clutch uses a proprietary ranking algorithm to compare providers in specific industries, focus areas, and locations. Your company’s rank relies heavily on your Ability to Deliver score, which is a numeric assessment of client reviews, industry experience, and market presence.

Your Ability to Deliver score is calculated out of 40 points, divided into three parts:

1. Reviews score (20 points): Evaluates your reviews based on their rating, recency, and project size. This score has the most impact on your company’s ranking.
   
2. Market Presence score (10 points): Considers your web presence, domain authority, industry recognitions, and thought leadership.
3. Clients and Experience score (10 points): Assesses your experience based on clients and projects reported. This score also relies on your portfolio section, where you can upload case studies to demonstrate your past work.

Your Ability to Deliver score updates automatically based on your profile’s recent content. As your profile evolves, so does your score and ranking.

Clutch reviews significantly influence buyers' decisions by providing objective insight into your business expertise, reliability, and pricing. Regularly collecting reviews is important for the following reasons:

• Recent reviews demonstrate your active presence in the market, instilling trust in buyers who are likely to choose providers with fresh feedback. According to our research, 94% of buyers use an online review to help make a B2B purchasing decision. 
  
• Reviews contribute to your company’s SEO by appearing on search engine results pages (SERPs), especially in local results. Collecting and responding to reviews allows business leaders to find information about your company in more places.
  
• Reviews account for half of the points used to calculate your Ability to Deliver score, which measures your company’s quality and reputation on Clutch directories. This score evaluates three criteria: client reviews, past work experience, and brand presence in the target market. The higher the score, the better your company ranks on Clutch.
  
• Recent reviews showcase your latest projects, technologies, and skills. They reflect your adaptability to market and client expectations, giving buyers confidence in your work.
  

Adding reviews to your Clutch profile is easy! Clients complete an online form or for sponsors, the additional option to have a phone interview conducted by a Clutch representative. Fresh reviews reinforce your reputation and ranking, and ultimately help you grow your business.
