MagicTricks: Updated number of positions

{{refimprove|date=June 2009}}
'''Top Heatseekers''' refers to either of two separate "Breaking and Entering" music charts issued weekly by [[Billboard (magazine)|''Billboard'' Magazine]]: the '''Heatseekers Albums''' chart or the '''Heatseekers Songs''' chart. They were introduced by ''Billboard'' in 1991<ref>{{cite book|url=http://books.google.com/books?id=XwgEAAAAMBAJ&lpg=PA20&ots=t5h6EVAXxb&dq=Heatseekers+1993&pg=PA20&redir_esc=y#v=twopage&q&f=false |title=Billboard - Google Books |publisher=Books.google.com |date= |accessdate=2013-11-09}}</ref> with the purpose of highlighting the sales by new and developing musical recording artists. Albums and songs appearing on Top Heatseekers may also concurrently appear on the [[Billboard 200|''Billboard'' 200]] or [[Billboard Hot 100|''Billboard'' Hot 100]].

==Heatseekers Albums chart==
The Heatseekers Albums chart contains 25 positions that are ranked by [[Nielsen SoundScan]] sales data, and charts album titles from "new or developing acts" as determined by the acts' historical chart performance. Once an artist/act has had an album place in the top 100 of the ''Billboard'' Top 200, or in the top ten of any of the [[Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums]], Country Albums, [[Billboard Top Latin Albums|Latin Albums]], [[Christian Albums]], or Gospel Albums charts, the album and later works no longer qualify for tracking on Heatseeker Albums.<ref>[http://www.billboard.com/#/charts/heatseekers-albums Billboard "Heatseekers Albums"] Chart definition requires JavaScript for viewing, click on "more" in title line. ''Billboard'' Web site. Retrieved 2010-03-30.</ref>

Many artists have bypassed Top Heatseekers altogether by having their initial chart entry debut on the ''Billboard'' 200 at position 100 or above.

==Heatseekers Songs chart==
The Heatseekers Songs chart contains 25 positions, rated by a combination of [[Nielsen Broadcast Data Systems|Nielsen BDS]] airplay measurements, Nielsen SoundScan sales data, and streaming activity figures from online music sources. Like Heatseekers Albums, this chart tracks titles from "new or developing acts", similarly determined by the acts' historical chart performance. An artist's song is no longer eligible for Heatseekers Songs when the artist has had a song place in the top 50 of the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 (or had had a radio song before December 5, 1998).<ref>[http://www.billboard.com/#/charts/heatseekers-songs Billboard "Heatseekers Songs"] Chart definition requires JavaScript for viewing, click on "more" in title line.
