Top Spot

Rules

Top Spot is a public leaderboard. No ads, no algorithm, no revenue share. You pay to stand above everyone else. Your rank is what you pay, and nothing else.

The boards

One payment counts on every board that covers the time you paid. Each board simply looks at a different window of time.

  • All-time is the main board. Your rank is the total you have ever paid for that listing. It never expires.
  • Today covers the current day in India time (IST), midnight to midnight. Your rank is what you paid since midnight IST. The board resets when the next day starts, and the day's #1 is announced as "Today's Top Spot" on our socials.
  • Daily is the archive of every IST day since launch. The current day stays live until midnight; past days are frozen as a record. Your rank is what you paid that day.
  • Categories use the same payments, ranked only against listings in your category.

How ranking works

  • Payments are in whole Indian rupees: ₹9,99,999 maximum per payment. The minimum for a new listing depends on the category: ₹999 for Creators and Local business, ₹4,999 for Enterprise, and ₹1,999 for everything else. Listings already on the board keep their amount until they top up or are overtaken.
  • Taking #1 costs at least ₹999 more than the current #1. Paying less still puts you on the board at whatever rank that amount reaches. If two listings have the same amount, the one that paid first stays higher.
  • Taking today's #1 costs at least ₹500 more than the most anyone else has paid since midnight IST.
  • Already listed? Enter the same URL or @handle again to raise your rank. Each top-up is at least ₹99, and you only pay the difference. Nobody else can take your rank by paying that difference.
  • App Store, Play Store, GitHub and similar links are matched by their full path, so different apps never share a rank. Tracking codes in links are ignored.

What you can list

  • A product or business website, or an Instagram, X or LinkedIn @handle.
  • No chat or invite links: WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Signal, Messenger and similar. The board is for products and profiles, not group chats.
  • No sexual or adult content of any kind.
  • No betting or real-money gaming, instant-loan apps, crypto or "guaranteed returns" schemes, or anything illegal in India.
  • Link parameters are removed, so affiliate, referral and tracking links will not work.
  • No link shorteners. If you submit one, we replace it with the address it leads to.

After you pay

  • Your listing is public. Clicks go straight to the URL or profile you submitted, without link parameters.
  • Your rank is claimed only when the payment is complete. Once a listing is live, the payment is not refundable. Failed, duplicate or accidental payments are refunded as set out in our Refund policy.
  • We may remove a listing that breaks these rules, without a refund.
  • By paying, you agree to our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, including the requirement that listed businesses show valid company or contact details.
