Help & Answers
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about navigating, claiming, and gathering reviews.
Is it completely free to list and claim an agency on AgencyOra?
Yes, 100% free. AgencyOra does not charge profile fees, monthly subscriptions, or commissions on client deals. Positions and visibility are determined purely by completeness, verified reviews, and relevance.
How does AgencyOra verify ownership during the claim process?
We cross-reference the claimant account email with the agency official domain name and public contact records. In special cases where personal emails are used, our team requests quick confirmation via corporate email.
What is the difference between a Verified Review and a Public Review?
Public reviews can be submitted by any registered user but undergo standard moderation. Verified Reviews originate from direct cryptographic invitation links sent by the agency to real clients, earning the emerald "Verified Client" badge.
Can an agency remove or edit negative client reviews?
No. To maintain honest marketplace transparency, agencies cannot delete genuine critical reviews. However, agency owners can post an official public response to explain their perspective or resolve disputes.
How do the website trust badges work?
Once an agency profile is claimed and approved, you unlock dynamic SVG trust badges (in Obsidian Dark, Clean Light, Brand Gradient, and Gold Vetted themes) that you can embed in your website footer with SEO backlink capabilities.
