Comparison pages: how vendors appear
Public head-to-head pages at kariant.app/kompare/<a>-vs-<b> put two listings side by side for buyers. Curated pairs enter the library two ways — weekly regeneration from category rankings, and partner-submitted comparisons that pass review — and neither path is purchasable.
How curated pairs are chosenlink
Every week, Kariant regenerates curated comparison pages from each category’s latest Grid ranking: the top five ranked listings form the candidate pool, and the strongest pair combinations (by combined rank) are published — capped at five pairs per category. Pairs are dropped automatically when either listing is unpublished.
Presence on ranking-generated pages is a direct consequence of your category ranking. There is no purchase path into a comparison page — no Boost slot, no fee, no placement product. The second path into the library is editorial, not commercial: see the submission tool below.
Submit your own: Kurated Komparisonslink
The console tool at /partner/kurated-komparisons lets you build and submit curated comparisons yourself — title, subtitle, the products compared, and metrics. Every submission enters as PENDING and is reviewed by the Kariant team before anything publishes; approved entries join the same curated library the public /kompare comparison pages render, with the analysis clearly attributed. You can have up to 10 submissions, and the page shows each one’s status (pending / published / rejected).
Submission is free and review is editorial — submitting is a way to propose a useful comparison, not a way to buy placement or a favorable verdict.
What buyers see on the pagelink
The comparison table is built exclusively from both listings’ real catalog fields — category, pricing model, starting price, free trial, user rating, features, integrations, deployment — and a row renders only when both listings provide that field. A sparse listing produces a sparse column next to a complete competitor, which is the strongest practical reason to keep every listing field filled in.
Curated pairs additionally carry a clearly attributed “Kariant analysis” block (key differences, metrics, FAQs) from the curated comparison library.
How to appear in more comparisonslink
- 1Rank in your category: reviews, listing completeness, and freshness drive the Grid ranking the pair generator reads.
- 2Fill in every structured field — comparison rows only render from fields both listings carry, so gaps literally blank your side of the table.
- 3Keep the listing published — unpublished listings drop out of pair generation on the next weekly run.
Frequently asked questions
Can I pay to appear in a comparison page or to win one?expand_more
No. Curated pairs come from category rankings or from free partner submissions that are reviewed before publishing; the table values come from listing data. Money buys neither presence nor a verdict.
A comparison shows my competitor but not me — why?expand_more
Ranking-generated pairs draw from the top five ranked listings in the category’s latest Grid report. Improve the signals behind your ranking — authentic reviews and listing completeness — and pairs regenerate weekly. You can also propose a comparison yourself at /partner/kurated-komparisons; it publishes only if it passes review.
Buyers can compare any two listings by URL — can I stop a comparison involving my product?expand_more
No. Any two published listings can be compared, using only their real public listing data. Your lever is making your listing’s data complete and compelling.
