What the seal means

A small seal in the window that means a lot.

  1. Nominated by locals. Anyone can put a business forward, free, including their own.
  2. Scored on evidence. The Lovely Score checks five trust signals over months, not on a single day.
  3. Checked by a real person. Every finalist gets a call, a visit or a mystery shop.
  4. Confirmed by a panel. Local business people sign off the winners. Nobody can pay to win.

The Lovely Score

Five things trustworthy businesses get right.

The same signals that real customers, and now AI assistants, use to decide who to trust. We publish what we look at; the exact checks stay private so nobody can game them.

  1. 1

    Clarity

    Clear about who they are, what they offer, prices, hours and how to book.

  2. 2

    Proof

    Real reviews and replies, real photos and real people.

  3. 3

    Authority

    Local mentions, press, associations, and being cited in AI answers.

  4. 4

    Presence

    Easy to find in Google, Maps and AI assistants, with a site that works on a phone.

  5. 5

    Consistency

    Name, address, phone, hours and prices match everywhere, plus the compliance basics.
