Cooks Chart

The Cooks Chart is a ranking system for CookingHub users where they compete for the best position. Whether you publish recipes for fun or are an influencer, the Cooks Chart adds an extra dimension to publishing recipes on CookingHub.

Basics

  • The lower the number on the Cooks Chart, the better your position.
  • Chefs with the lowest numbers will rank higher on the chart, leading to more exposure, such as increased visibility on the Cooks Chart, more promotion and visibility for their recipes, and the possibility of being promoted on our social media.
  • Results update automatically every 15 minutes.

What Affects Your Cooks Chart Position

  • Date of profile creation: The sooner you create your profile, the better your starting position.
  • Number of published recipes: Submitted and approved recipes that are currently on CookingHub (not deleted or moved to private recipes).
  • Popularity of your recipes: Number of views and reviews.
