Methodology

  • Dataset: all published comparison pages on aversusb.net in the finance and economy categories as of September 14, 2026.
  • Topic rankings count distinct comparison pages in which each financial product or institution appears — regardless of whether it is the subject or the challenger.
  • Category clusters are determined by keyword matching against entity slugs and comparison titles.
  • Matchup rankings use comparison centrality — the combined number of published comparisons each side appears in. Every figure on this page is a count of published comparison pages; we do not publish traffic or readership numbers.
  • Data refreshes daily. The live dataset may differ slightly from this snapshot.
