chart position

Hit list placement

A chart position is a song's or album's ranking on a music sales or streaming chart at a given time.

The term usually refers to weekly charts like the Billboard Hot 100: The single debuted at number three but climbed to the top chart position by week four.

A high chart position signals commercial success and often determines radio play and promotional opportunities.
