## Seven checks, same for every agency

We rank each list the same way. We list only agencies that operate now. We omit any fact we could not confirm.

-   Partner status: the Shopify partner tier shown on the agency’s Shopify Partner Directory profile.
-   Shopify focus: how much of the agency’s work is on Shopify, not on other platforms.
-   Public reviews: scores and review counts on public sites. The source stays next to the number.
-   Years in business: the founding year, when the agency or a public record states it.
-   Store-size fit: whether the agency suits small, mid-market, or enterprise stores.
-   Service range: design, build, migration, conversion work, apps, and support.
-   Client work: named brands on the agency’s own site, and a site that works today.
