We rate the websites we review by giving them between one and five fish. Here's what the scores stand for:

5 - Excellent
4 - Good
3 - Above Average
2 - Average
1 - Below Average

The way we arrive at these scores is to check websites for three key qualities: content, design and originality. Our reviewers ask the following questions...

Content - is the content helpful, well-written, reliable, comprehensive?

Design - is visiting the site a good experience in terms of look and navigation?

Originality - is the site derivative or offering something unique?
