# Trending

PattiePad gives every project the ability to trend on our website. The launchpad highlights the top 12 trending projects at the time and dynamically adjusts their position based on the performance of the token and its fundraising success.

The trending bar is controlled via a smart algorithm that has been designed to keep trending fair, whilst also having the ability to remove projects who try to trick the algorithm.

Some of the trending metrics are listed below:

* Buy volume —> the more buy volume on your presale pool, the higher you will trend.
* KYC + SAFU + Audit —> projects with KYC + SAFU and Audit badges will get higher priority over projects without these badges.

Tip: If you want to better your chances at trending, combine the above metrics but please note, the above will not guarantee you a trending position, the algorithm will assess project popularity and adjust accordingly.

Lastly, we advise project owners NOT to pay external parties for "PattiePad Trending" services as they are likely a scam - Our smart algorithm will detect fraudulent trending behaviors and blacklist the project, so it is best to follow our tips above.

Note: Again, PattiePad Trending is free. If there are people approach for PattiePad Trending, they are definitely scammer. Please report and block them.
