Summary: S3 stands for SEO Shop Scan. The S3OScore is a simple scoring algorithm that we've designed to help you quickly understand the Search Engine Optimization readiness of any given page on your Shopify Store.
How does the S3OScore work?
Each page is scored on a 0-100 basis.
The higher the score the better the page should perform in organic search engine results.
The lower the score the more you should prioritize fixing the SEO elements that the score highlights.
How is the S3OScore calculated?
We evaluate dozens of data points per page to calculate the S3OScore. Each element that we evaluate is weighted and graded according to it's importance in helping or hurting a search engine ranking.
