Broadband Search researches internet providers across the state. They asked to be included on Remerg.com and when asked who they are and how they're funded, the founder responded: "This is a site that a few friends and I started when we learned that similar sites are paid by companies to outrank one another. We are not paid by any one company to outrank another. Occasionally we are paid a small commission from a company for referring customers, but we do not let it affect our reviews." It feels like you may get good advice at this website re: internet providers.
