Product Update

New: score history — track your sites' progress over time

Interactive charts show how global and per-section scores evolve across audits. Click any point to open the report.

Key Takeaways
  • A new History page shows score evolution as an interactive line chart — global score always visible, 6 section curves on demand
  • Click any data point to jump directly to the corresponding audit report
  • The Y axis adapts to your actual data range, making small improvements clearly visible

You audit a site, fix the issues, re-audit a few weeks later. The score went up. But by how much? Which sections improved? Which ones regressed? Until now, you had to compare audits two at a time.

The new score history page changes that. One glance at the chart tells you everything: the overall trend, the pace of improvement, and which areas still need attention.

It's available today for every site with at least 2 audits — accessible from the dashboard and from each report.

Score history: interactive charts, section toggles, visual deltas

Why score history matters

A single audit score is a snapshot. A series of scores is a story. When you present a client with a chart showing their site going from 52 to 78 over three months, it's no longer an abstract number — it's visible, tangible progress.

For freelancers and agencies, this is a powerful retention tool. Instead of "trust me, things are better", you show the curve. The client sees the upward trend with their own eyes. That's the difference between a one-time fix and an ongoing maintenance contract.

A score is a number. A curve is a proof. Show the trend, and the client renews.

How it works

From the dashboard, click the chart icon next to any site with 2 or more audits. From a report, click the "Score history" badge in the hero area.

The history page displays:

  1. A hero section with current score, total delta (first → last), and audit count
  2. An interactive line chart powered by Chart.js: global score as a solid line, always visible
  3. Toggle buttons for each section (Performance, Security, SEO, UX, Legal, WordPress) — click to overlay their curves
  4. A data table with all audits, per-section scores, delta between each pair, and direct links to reports

The Y axis automatically adapts to your data range. If scores go from 62 to 85, the chart zooms in on that range instead of showing 0 to 100. Small improvements become clearly visible.

Per-section analysis

The global score hides a lot. A site can go from 65 to 68 overall while Security jumped from 40 to 80 and Performance dropped from 90 to 75. The section toggles reveal these hidden movements.

Each section uses the same color as in the audit report — Performance in blue, Security in red, SEO in purple, UX in cyan, Legal in orange, WordPress in green. Toggle them on to spot patterns: maybe every time you update plugins, security goes up but performance dips temporarily.

The global score tells you where you are. The section curves tell you why.

From diagnostic tool to retention argument

The comparison page (already available) lets you diff two specific audits. The history page gives you the big picture: the complete trajectory of a site over weeks or months.

For client-facing work, this is invaluable:

  1. Monthly reviews: show the chart, highlight improvements, flag regressions
  2. Contract renewals: "your site went from 54 to 82 since we started — here's the curve"
  3. Before/after pitch: run an initial audit, do the work, re-audit, and let the chart speak

Combined with white-label reports, the history page becomes a branded progress dashboard that your clients can access anytime.

Available now

The score history is live for all plans, including free. Any site with 2 or more audits gets the chart icon in the dashboard and the "Score history" badge in reports.

No configuration needed. Just audit a site more than once and watch the story unfold.
