History and method
Score history. Hays was first scored on Whito’s fixed rules in October 2026. Earlier editions used scores relative to the other brands on the board, so they are not comparable. Score and ranking movement will show here after the next rescore.
How the scores work. Each of seven channels (social, website, email, SEO, paid, reviews and brand) is scored 0 to 10 against fixed, published anchors, and the overall score is the plain average of the seven. Scores measure visible marketing only, not sales, profit or market share. Full rules are on the board’s method section.
Independence and corrections. Whito is independent. Nobody pays to be listed, and paying Whito for anything never changes a score, a rank or a verdict. If something here is wrong, email hello@whito.co.uk with the evidence and we will check it.
