Editorial methodology
Rankings start with visible installer evidence. Sales relationships do not move a company up. The same maintenance loop checks dated claims, source drift, schema parity, and whether a page is ready for human review.

No paid placements. No installer pays for placement. Atlanta EV Installers compares licensed EV charger installers serving metro Atlanta, then keeps the facts current through source checks before any approved deploy.
Ranking stack
Companies that publish dedicated EV charging work rank above broad electrical shops when the proof is stronger.
Tesla certification, charger-brand experience, and utility coordination are treated as stronger signals when they are visible from the installer or program source.
Metro Atlanta coverage matters after specialization and certification. A vague service-area claim does less work than named local coverage or project detail.
Money boundary
No installer pays for placement. That is a live claim on the directory, and it has to stay true if the site later adds affiliate hardware links, lead forms, sponsorships, or badge outreach.
The business rule is simple: money can sit around the ranking, never inside it. Installer rankings stay editorial. Any commercial relationship needs visible disclosure and must not decide placement.
When this site links to charger hardware, those links are examples to discuss with an installer before ordering. Hardware links may be affiliate links. They don't change installer ranking order, listing labels, badges, factual corrections, or whether a company is included.
Maintenance loop
Review dates
The normal operating rhythm is weekly maintenance for source drift, crawl issues, claim status, schema parity, and search-signal imports. Apartment EV charging sources get a monthly check because amenity pages can change without warning.
Visible "updated" and "last verified" dates move only when the relevant source was checked. A page does not get a fresh date just because the file was edited.
Apartment list standard
Apartment EV charging entries need direct property or manager source evidence. Aggregator filters are discovery only.
As of July 3, 2026, the apartment guide has 9 direct-source verified properties. Skyhouse South stays excluded until direct-source EV charging evidence appears.
Public surfaces
FAQ
No. Installer payments don't control placement. Clearly labeled charger-hardware affiliate links may appear in guide content, but paid relationships don't decide ranking order, listing labels, badges, factual corrections, or whether an installer is included.
Rankings weigh EV specialization first, manufacturer certifications second, and verified metro Atlanta service footprint third.
The operating rhythm is weekly maintenance, with monthly apartment source checks and extra review when a dated claim, utility program, or source snapshot changes.
The page stays in manual review until the visible copy, claim ledger, and schema match the current source evidence.
It checks source snapshots, claim status, crawl signals, FAQ schema parity, apartment-source evidence, search-signal imports, and whether any deploy should stay held for human review.
