Attention isn't ranked by an algorithm here.
It's earned by the highest bid.
TheBestIn.city is a transparent, city-wise leaderboard. Businesses, Instagram handles, Facebook pages and YouTube channels compete openly for the #1 spot in their city — and everyone can see exactly what it took to get there.
Why we built this
Discovery online is mostly a black box. Search results, "top 10" lists, and social feeds are ranked by algorithms nobody outside the platform fully understands — and paid promotion happens quietly, behind the scenes, with no visible price tag.
We wanted the opposite: a leaderboard where the rules are stated up front, the current price to hold #1 is always visible, and anyone can outbid anyone at any time. No hidden auctions, no opaque scoring — just your city, your category, and an open bid.
How it works
Find your city
We detect your location automatically, or you can search and add your city in seconds if it isn't listed yet.
Submit your link and place a bid
Drop your business link, Instagram handle, Facebook page or YouTube channel, pick a category, and place a bid to claim your rank. New cities get a handful of free spots before bidding kicks in.
Take your rank — and defend it
Your position is confirmed instantly after payment. Anyone can outbid you later, so the leaderboard always reflects who wants the spot the most, right now.
What we believe
- •Transparent beats opaque. The price of the top spot is always visible before you pay.
- •Local matters. Every leaderboard is scoped to a single city, so you're competing with businesses that actually matter to your audience.
- •Anyone can start free. New cities open with free listing slots, so early businesses can claim a rank without spending anything.
