How far back does my scan history go?

Your scan history retention depends on your plan. Free users can view their most recent scans, while Pro and Premium plans offer extended retention periods — Premium users get unlimited history with no expiration. Signing in with your account ensures your scan history persists across devices and browsers, so you never lose track of your progress.

Can I compare two scans from my history?

Yes. Enable compare mode by clicking the Compare button in the header, then select any two scans from your history. The comparison view shows a side-by-side breakdown of overall scores and module-level scores for performance, content quality, policy compliance, site architecture, and traffic signals. This works for tracking progress on the same site over time or benchmarking two different sites against each other.

What do the letter grades mean?

Letter grades provide a quick summary of your ad network readiness. A (90–100) indicates excellent readiness and a high likelihood of approval by most networks. B (80–89) means your site is in good shape but has room for improvement in one or two modules. C (70–79) signals that several areas need attention before applying. D (60–69) indicates significant gaps across multiple categories. F (below 60) means the site is not yet ready for most premium ad networks and needs substantial work.

Why did my score change between scans?

Score changes reflect real changes to your website or updates to the evaluation criteria. Common causes of score increases include content improvements, page speed optimizations, adding required policy pages like a privacy policy or terms of service, and growing organic traffic. Scores can also decrease — for example, if a theme or plugin update breaks page speed, if you remove pages that were previously contributing to your content quality score, or if broken links appear after a site restructure.

Does clearing my history delete my scan data?

Clearing your history hides past scans from the history view, but it does not permanently delete the underlying scan data from the server. If you have a direct URL or bookmark to a specific scan report, you can still access it. New scans run after clearing will appear in your history as normal. This feature is useful for starting fresh without losing the ability to revisit older reports when needed.

Scan History — Track Your Ad Readiness Progress

Why tracking your scan history matters

Ad network approval is a journey, not a single event. Publishers rarely get accepted on the first attempt by premium networks like Mediavine (which requires 50,000 sessions per month), Raptive (formerly AdThrive, requiring 100,000 monthly pageviews), or even Ezoic, which has lowered its traffic threshold but still evaluates content quality and site architecture. Each network has its own mix of requirements, and meeting all of them at once takes iterative effort — scanning, fixing, and rescanning until every module clears the bar.

Your scan history is a timeline of that progress. Every scan captures the domain you tested, your overall readiness score out of 100, a letter grade from A through F, and the exact date the scan was completed. When you look at your history, you can trace how changes to your content, page speed, policy pages, or site architecture affected your score over days and weeks. Instead of guessing whether your latest round of improvements actually helped, you have concrete evidence.

History also helps you spot patterns and regressions. If your score dipped after a theme change, a plugin update, or a hosting migration, the scan history pinpoints exactly when the regression happened. You can compare the scan before and after the change, identify which modules lost points, and fix the issue before it costs you an ad network approval or, worse, leads to a revocation of access you already earned.

What you'll see in your scan history

Each entry in your scan history displays the domain that was scanned, the overall readiness score out of 100, the corresponding letter grade (A, B, C, D, or F), and the date the scan was completed. At a glance, you can see whether your scores are trending upward or if a recent change caused a dip.

Click any scan to open its full detailed report. The report includes module-by-module breakdowns covering performance and Core Web Vitals, content quality and originality, policy compliance such as ads.txt and privacy policy checks, site architecture including navigation and structured data, and traffic signals that reflect your organic search presence and referral diversity.

The compare feature lets you select any two scans and view them side by side. This is invaluable for measuring the impact of specific improvements — for example, confirming that adding a privacy policy boosted your policy compliance score, or that image optimization improved your performance module. You can also delete individual scans you no longer need, or clear your entire history to start fresh while keeping the underlying scan data accessible via direct URLs.

How publishers use scan history

Publishers at every stage of monetization rely on scan history to make informed decisions. Here are the most common use cases:

Baseline tracking — Run your first scan to establish a baseline before making any changes. This starting score is your reference point for measuring all future improvements. Without a baseline, you cannot objectively tell whether your optimizations are moving the needle.
Measuring fix impact — After adding a privacy policy, optimizing images, improving page speed, or publishing additional long-form content, run another scan and compare it against your baseline. The side-by-side view confirms whether the fix actually improved the relevant module score or if further work is needed.
Pre-application verification — Before submitting your application to a premium ad network, review your most recent scans to make sure your scores are consistently above the network's minimum threshold. A single high score can be a fluke — a pattern of strong scores across multiple scans gives you confidence that your site is genuinely ready.
Ongoing monitoring — Even after approval, periodic scans help you maintain compliance with your ad network's quality standards. Networks like Mediavine and Raptive can revoke access if your site quality drops below their thresholds, so regular scanning ensures you catch regressions early and fix them before they affect your revenue.
