How badges are assigned and displayed:

  1. Automatic algorithms are used to set badges for sites and display relevant icons in search results.

  2. These algorithms view all resources as equal.

  3. The input data and results of the algorithms are updated regularly. Yandex does not comment on these changes and does not guarantee badges to certain sites or display of icons in search results.

  4. The badges available and the site progress to receive the badges may differ from country to country.

  5. Yandex reserves the right to change algorithms at any time without notice.

  6. The ranking algorithm depends on multiple factors, focusing on finding the page that best matches a specific search query. A specific page on a site might be most relevant to the query, even if the site doesn't have any badges.
