Here is everything behind both numbers. What we measured, what we found, what each piece is worth, and where we got it. Nothing here is rounded in our favour.

The three moves worth the most
ranked by what they are actually worth01From the last scoring run. Give the review something to read — a specific claim, a named outcome, a link that is not your own marketing. Adjectives score a one.
02From the last scoring run. Put the badge on your own site and link back here. It is free, and it is the one piece a claim moves straight away.
03From the last scoring run. Ship something. This is the one piece that falls on its own when nothing new happens.
None of these are for sale
Every move above is something you do, not something you buy. Paid placement buys badges, labelled rails, richer media and analytics. It buys zero points. The scoring system cannot see the billing system.
