Methodology

This page explains how Best in Mexico researches, drafts, reviews, and updates rankings and facts pages for Mexico.

1) Research inputs and source collection

We collect candidate entities and claims from publicly available sources, including Google Maps profile data, official business websites, and other primary references linked on each page. Sources must be linkable and attributable before publication.

2) AI-assisted drafting, automated checks, and editorial approval

AI tools help with research synthesis and draft wording. Drafts go through automated quality checks, for example on sourcing, dates, and page structure, and need editorial approval before publishing.

3) Ranking and selection logic

Rankings are computed from structured criteria and the evidence collected for each entry. Where a ranking uses weighted criteria, the criteria and their weights are listed on the ranking page so readers can see why each entry appears where it does.

4) Metadata and schema review before publish

Before a page is published, the title, meta description, structured data, and image alt text must be confirmed. This confirmation is required in the publishing workflow and recorded when content goes live.

5) Freshness and as-of dates

We use visible update stamps and as-of labels to indicate recency. Facts pages show a verified date. When key facts change, the updated draft goes through the same checks and approval before it is republished.

6) Corrections process

Readers and businesses can request corrections through the contact form. Include the exact page URL, requested correction, and a primary source link so we can verify it.
