3. Click on the relevant site to go into the Managed site view.
   
4. In the left-hand menu, click Monitoring.
   
5. In the Monitoring page, you’ll see:

   • Accessibility score
     
     To view all the scores in detail, click through each column.

What specific scores can I track in Manage?

The monitoring interface provides high-level scores for three critical areas of website health:

Accessibility Score: Analyzes how easily users with disabilities can navigate and interact with your site.

Performance Score: Measures speed, responsiveness, and visual stability.

SEO Score: Evaluates how well the page adheres to search engine optimization best practices.

How do I interpret the colored score indicators?

Each score is color-coded to provide a quick visual assessment of your site’s status:

• 🟢 Green (90–100): Good
• 🟠 Orange (50–89): Needs improvement
• 🔴 Red (0–49): Poor

What technical metrics determine the performance score?

The Statistics section breaks down your performance score into five core technical parameters:

• First Contentful Paint (FCP): The time it takes for the first text or image element to appear.
• Largest Contentful Paint (LCP): The time required for the largest visible element to render.
• Total Blocking Time (TBT): The total delay caused by scripts that prevent user interaction.
• Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS): A measure of how much page content shifts during loading.
• Speed Index: An overall measure of how quickly content is visually displayed.

The frequency of scans depends on which plan you have.

How can I optimize low SEO and accessibility scores?

If your scores are in the orange or red categories, you can use the following tools to improve them:

• Passed Audits: Review items that are already successful to ensure they stay that way.
• Audits to Review: Click Show to see specific technical failures that need fixing.
• Image Optimizer: Use this tool to improve low FCP or LCP scores by reducing asset sizes.
