How we rank
Each dispensary's score is a confidence-weighted (Bayesian) average of its customer ratings: a store with hundreds of consistent ratings outranks one with a single perfect score, because one rating isn't proof of being the best in Carlsbad. When scores tie, we favor the shop with more ratings and a more complete profile.
Where a shop has reviews written on Weedtip, we rank on those. Where it doesn't, we fall back to its Google rating, labeled “on Google” and linked to the Google listing it came from, never presented as ours. Of the 5 shops here, 0 are scored on Weedtip reviews and 5 on Google.
Rankings update as new ratings come in, and positions are never sold. Sponsored placements are labeled everywhere they appear.
