Accessibility Health Scores
A health score is a number from 0 to 100 for one scanned page. Higher is better.
Plans. Plus, Business, and Pro. See Plus.
A page's health score shows how accessible a page is based on the number and severity of its bugs, including those discovered through scans and those you add.
The word next to the number is the plain-language reading:
- Good — 90 to 100.
- Fair — 70 to 89.
- Needs work — 50 to 69.
- Poor — under 50.
The page starts at 100. Each open problem lowers it. A critical problem lowers it more than a minor one. The company score on Pages is the average of the pages that have a score. A page you have not scanned yet is left out of that average. It is left out on purpose: an unscanned page is neither a failure nor a perfect score.
Two things change the score after the scan. A bug you add (a My Bug) lowers the score for the page you attached it to. A scan bug you mark as a false positive is left out, so the score can rise.
On Starter, Pages shows how many bugs are still open. The health score, the change since the last scan, and the PDF report are on Plus, Business, and Pro.
Use the score to see whether the site is getting better. Sort Pages by health when you want the weakest pages first. Read the bugs before you treat the number as the whole story. A high score can still hide a problem that automation cannot see. That is what Add a bug is for.
