Methodology

The FisherLeads Index counts new service and local businesses that FisherLeads verified as real, live and newly launched, detected from public launch signals (new SSL certificates and domain records). It is not a claim of every business launched worldwide. This report covers August 2026 and refreshes daily as new launches are confirmed.
