This methodology describes how XrdaGrid converts marketplace and regulatory information into practical guides and service comparisons.
1. Define the page scope
Each page is assigned a primary topic, intended audience, jurisdiction, marketplace, product context, canonical URL, parent hub, and internal-link plan before research begins.
2. Build the source ledger
- Official marketplace documentation
- Laws, regulator guidance, and government publications
- Official provider documentation and written quotations
- Reliable secondary sources used only for context
3. Separate different types of requirements
A marketplace policy is not automatically a legal requirement, and a general law may not apply to every product or seller. We state the relevant authority, jurisdiction, conditions, and known limitations.
4. Evaluate providers
Depending on the comparison, criteria may include service scope, eligibility, jurisdiction coverage, turnaround claims, support, pricing transparency, deliverables, update policies, cancellation or refund terms, and documented limitations.
5. Check mutable facts
Prices, marketplace policies, program terms, product features, and other changing facts receive an “as of” date and are rechecked before publication or a material update.
6. Run publication QA
Every page is checked for unsupported claims, source quality, jurisdiction, dates, internal links, affiliate disclosure, metadata, schema, accessibility, and mobile presentation.
Corrections
Material corrections are reviewed against evidence. The last-reviewed date is updated when a page receives a substantive verification.
