Website Audits & Issues

Understanding your website health score

Your health score (0–100) weighs every completed check by both its severity and its importance, then averages them into one number.

Each completed check gets an impact level: healthy, notice, warning, or critical. Checks that haven't finished, are locked, or were skipped don't count toward the score.

Every check also has a fixed importance weight (high / medium / low) — a broken robots.txt file weighs more than a missing image alt tag, for example. The health score is a weighted average across every scored check, expressed as an integer from 0 to 100.

On each audit section tab, the sidebar checklist shows every check with a status icon:

  • Locked (amber lock) — needs Google Search Console connected
  • Critical (red) / Warning (amber) / Notice (blue) / Healthy (green) — the check ran and found this result
  • Checking (spinning) — still in progress

The Overview page also shows a before/after comparison against your previous audit — checks that improved are marked Resolved, and any that got worse are marked Regressed, alongside your overall score change.
