This section scores your website across five technical performance metrics:

Metric Weight

Overall SEO 30%
Interactivity 10%
Large Content (LCP) 10%

Local SEO Heatmap

By default, the SEO section uses a 3x3 grid of 9 heatmap points. It can be expanded up to a 7x7 grid with 49 points. Each heatmap is scored 0 to 100.

How Each Pin is Scored

Rank #1 10 points
Rank #2 or #3 8 points
Rank #4 or #5 6 points
Rank #6 to #10 4 points
Rank #11 or lower 0 points

Ring Weights by Grid Size

3x3 Center ring 60%, outer ring 40%
5x5 Inner 50%, middle 30%, outer 20%
7x7 Inner 40%, ring 2: 25%, ring 3: 20%, outer 15%

How to read your score

100 means you ranked #1 at every single pin. 0 means you did not appear in the top 10 at any location. Nearer pins carry more weight than farther ones, so showing up in the center of your market matters most.
