How Do The Songs Become Number One?

The Official Charts Company (OCC), previously called the Chart Information Network (CIN) and then The Official UK Charts Company. The OCC is operated jointly by the British Phonographic Industry and the Entertainment Retailers Association ERA (formerly the British Association of Record Dealers BARD). Since 1 July 1997, CIN and then OCC have compiled the official charts. Prior to this date, the charts were produced by a succession of market research companies, beginning with the British Market Research Bureau in 1969, and later by Gallup. Before the production of the "official" charts, various less comprehensive charts were produced, most notably by the NME(New Musical Express magazine), which began its chart in 1952; some of these older charts (including NME's earliest singles charts) are now part of the official OCC canon.

All of the OCC's charts are published weekly on Sundays, and cover sales for the preceding week, Sunday to Saturday.
