First, you should ensure your store is free of SEO errors. To scan for SEO errors, go to SEO Audit and click Scan.

Depending on the number of scanned pages, the scanning process might take a few minutes to several hours.

The SEO score history will limit to 15 most recent SEO scans. Track how your SEO score changes with this graph.
