Who's behind it

## A badge is only worth its source.

This is what stands behind BHG: a vendor database we maintain, a public methodology, and communities we run ourselves, not a freshly spun-up reviews site hoping vendors will pay to seed it.

Where the badge shows up

### Where your score shows up.

The badge isn't one placement on one site. Your score appears on the BHG scorecard and your vendor page, and in JSON-LD that search engines and AI assistants can read when buyers ask "is this vendor legit?"

BHG website · Featured on /vendors/scorecard + /vendors/[your-slug]

Search engines and AI assistants · Your scorecard page is public, so they can read it

Live preview

## This is what your customers see.

Pick a vendor below. The badge previews from live BHG data. The same iframe code drops on your site in under a minute.

<iframe src="https://www.bodyhackguide.co/embed/trust-badge?vendor=bhg-labs&size=md"
width="320" height="120"
        frameborder="0" loading="lazy"
        title="BHG Trust Score"
        style="border:0;border-radius:14px;max-width:100%"></iframe>

Why this works

## Free, public, score-driven. None of those are accidents.

### Free, public methodology, score-driven

Every point of the 0-100 score is documented at /vendors/methodology. The math is open. You can see exactly what moves your number.

### 5 factors, not 5 stars

COA verification, payment transparency, shipping, ratings, listings. Trustpilot has stars. We have receipts.

### Live updates

Your score is computed from our current data every time the badge loads. Once our editors verify a new COA, your score can move.

### 30-second install

Copy one iframe. Paste on your product pages or footer. Done.

### Links back to your scorecard

The badge sends your customers to a public scorecard page for your store, not a third-party silo.

### Vendors can't buy a higher score

No vendor can pay for a higher score or a better spot on /compare. The math runs against the same data for everyone.

vs. The alternatives

## One row sums it up: methodology.

BHG, PepReviewPro, Trustpilot, Google Reviews: same job, different rules. Read the first row first: if the methodology is closed, nothing else in the table matters.

| | BHG Vetted | PepReviewPro | Trustpilot | Google Reviews |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Cost to vendor | Free | $250-$2,000 / month | Free → $250-$1,000 / month | Free |
| Trust signals | 5-factor: COA, payment, shipping, rating, listings | Reviews only | Reviews only | Reviews only |
| Methodology | Public, weighted, version-tracked | Black-box AI scrubber | Closed | Closed |
| Pay-to-upgrade prevention | Score is data-driven only | Higher tier = more visibility | Paid tier = more features | — |
| Score refresh | Auto from BHG database | Manual review submission | Manual review submission | Manual review submission |
| SEO backlink to vendor's scorecard | Yes | No | Yes (but not vendor-specific) | No |
| Compliance language built-in | Research-use banner on every embed | Post-fact AI scrub | Generic disclaimer | — |
| AI compliance scrubber (FTC-clean reviews) | Diff shown to user before publish | Closed-box: vendors pay, no diff visible | None: accepts raw reviews | None |
| Customer review collection | Auth-gated forms · admin moderation queue · live today | Yes, review widget, no compliance pre-publish | Yes, but research vendors get delisted regularly | Yes, minimal niche compliance |
| CSV export of scores + data | Public, on /vendor-trust-scorecard, no signup required | Premium tier only | Premium tier only | Not available |
| Vendor's listings can be pulled | No, runs on vendor's own iframe | No, runs on vendor's own iframe | Yes, Trustpilot has delisted research vendors | Yes, Google removes profiles |

What it does for you

## The badge doubles as an SEO compounder.

Installed with the WordPress plugin, the badge adds three SEO signals to your pages at once. Zero added page weight, zero render-blocking, zero interference with the rest of your site.

### Organization + Rating schema

The WordPress plugin adds a JSON-LD block to your pages that points to your BHG scorecard. The iframe embed keeps its schema, including your numeric score, inside the frame. Search engines and AI assistants can read this markup, though Google does not show star snippets for ratings a business shows about itself.

Schema types the WordPress plugin adds: Organization and Rating

### Outbound link to your BHG scorecard

The badge wraps the iframe in an <a href> to your BHG scorecard. Google treats this as a credible outbound citation: vendor pages that link to authoritative sources rank better than pages that link nowhere. Even with the iframe blocked, the <a> tag and noscript fallback survive.

Link target: /vendors/[your-slug] · rel="noopener" · target="_blank"

### Zero CLS, lazy load, isolated

The iframe has explicit width + height + aspect-ratio so there's no Cumulative Layout Shift. `loading="lazy"` means it only fetches when scrolled into view. The iframe is a separate browsing context: its JavaScript can't touch your page, its CSS can't bleed, and your analytics can't see inside it.

Time-to-interactive impact: ~0ms on host page · iframe bundle ~60 KB lazy-loaded

### Looks native on any site

Set `?theme=light` for white-background sites, `?theme=dark` for dark, or `?theme=auto` to follow visitor preference. Pass your brand hex via `?accent=%23hex`. Mobile sizing handled: the iframe collapses cleanly under 360px without breaking your layout.

Tested at 320px (iPhone SE), 375px (iPhone), 414px (Pro Max), 768px (iPad), 1280px (desktop)

### The compounding effect

Every page that runs the WordPress plugin gets the same three signals. A vendor with 50 product pages shows the badge and its scorecard link on all 50, without re-pasting or maintaining anything. The score updates everywhere when your underlying data improves.

How it works

## Three steps. Then the badge runs itself.

01

### We score you against 5 weighted criteria

COA verification (30%), payment transparency (20%), star rating (20%), shipping coverage (15%), listings depth (15%). Same rubric for every vendor. Source of truth is public at /vendors/methodology.

02

### You embed the badge

Copy one iframe. Pick a size (micro, small, medium, hero). Paste it on your product pages, footer, or About page. The badge pulls your live score on every load.

03

### Your score updates as your data improves

Submit a new third-party COA → your score can move once our editors verify it. Add a payment method → same, once we update your record. The badge picks up the change on its next load. No re-embed, no re-paste.

The rubric

## Five factors, weighted, public.

Third-party COA verification 30%

Payment transparency 20%

Star rating 20%

Shipping coverage 15%

Listings depth 15%

The compounding embed strategy

## Pair the badge with the calculator.

Two BHG embeds on the same page beats one. The calculator earns the click ("customers stay to do the math"). The badge earns the trust ("published rubric, scorecard anyone can re-run"). Same data source, same brand color, separate iframes: they don't talk to each other and don't fight for the same pixel.

Embed #1

### Reconstitution calculator

Drop on every product page. Customers calculate the exact syringe units to draw for their dose. No third-party calculator, no leaving your site for math. Cost-per-dose math built in with your vial price.

- • 5 schemas (SoftwareApp + HowTo + FAQ + Breadcrumb + Org)
- • Lazy-loaded ~60 KB iframe
- • 15 peptide presets pre-loaded
- • White-label support (your accent color)

Get the calculator embed → (https://www.bodyhackguide.co/tools/embed-calculators)

Embed #2

### BHG Trust Score badge

Drop in your footer or About page. Customers see your live BHG Trust Score with the 5-factor breakdown. Public methodology. Same rubric for every vendor. Updates as your data improves.

- • Organization and Rating schema with the WordPress plugin
- • 4 size variants for any placement
- • Outbound link to your BHG scorecard
- • Same white-label / theme controls

See the badge live ↑

### The math: 2 embeds × N pageviews = compounding BHG referrer signal

Both embeds on one page = 2 referrer hits per pageview. 50 product pages × 5,000 monthly views = 500K monthly impressions of your BHG scorecard URL. Your scorecard URL gains backlinks and authority over time. Your own pages gain the outbound-citation credit Google has historically rewarded: vendor pages that link to authoritative sources beat pages that link nowhere.

The honest roadmap

## What's shipped vs. what's coming.

Full transparency on the trust-scoring stack: every feature, current status, and timeline.

- 5-factor weighted Trust Score (0-100) with public methodology
- Live data pull on every iframe load: score updates automatically
- 4 size variants (micro / sm / md / hero) + 3 themes (auto/dark/light)
- Custom accent color via ?accent=%23hex
- White-label footer via ?vendor=Name&credit=hide
- Multi-platform iframe (any HTML site, not just WooCommerce)
- WordPress plugin (shortcode, widget and auto-footer)
- Organization and Rating schema
- Noscript fallback link for SEO + accessibility
- Compliance banner pinned, non-removable (built-in)

- AI compliance scrubber: strips medical claims, PII, dosing language pre-publish
- Editorial moderation queue with admin RLS + diff preview before submit
- CSV export of vendor scores + criteria detail at /vendor-trust-scorecard

### Coming in v3 (Q3 2026)

- Vendor self-serve dashboard at /vendors/dashboard (login-gated, edit your own row)
- Auto-scrape vendor site on signup to populate score inputs
- Live loading animation during scrape (steps shown in real-time)
- Automated review invite emails: Beehiiv-triggered after verified purchase
- Reddit mention scraper: live mention count per vendor, surfaced on scorecard
- Vendor-side review analytics (sentiment, response time, dispute queue)
- Score history graph: 12-week rolling chart of every score change + reason
- REST API for vendor backend integration (read-only scorecard endpoint)
- 16-post SEO content series (vendor explainers + head-to-head comparisons)

**Why ship v2 first instead of waiting for the full review platform?**

The trust score was the moat. BHG already had the vendor data, the rubric, and the editorial workflow to ship it. Reviews are a layer on top, not the foundation. So we shipped the foundation first. Vendors get authority + SEO benefit today; review collection lands in v3 once the badge has 10+ live embeds and we've stress-tested the AI compliance scrubber on real submissions.

BHG is the opposite: built specifically for the research-peptide niche, with a public 5-factor methodology that goes beyond star ratings (COA verification, payment transparency, shipping coverage, ratings, and listings depth), free forever, and structurally aligned with vendors (no removal risk because the editorial framework is public).
