I don't give much importance to a gambling license after being in the industry for decades. I play at several gambling sites without licenses. The best gambling site ever created didn't have a license.
If you are going to keep it as a factor I would investigate each licenser and rank at least.

If two sites are exactly equal, but one holds a valid gaming license, historically I've been inclined to favor the licensed casino over the unlicensed casino.

But you are right, in almost ever situation, having a gaming license adds very little credibility and definitely should not be a deciding factor when determining where to start gambling online. In my How My Rankings Work page, I've previously stated that the importance of a gaming license is LOW.

Instead, players should look at factors including:

Popularity & Public Perception
Fast Payouts
Fairness & Transparency
Excellent Customer Service
