What Is the SEO Scorecard Generator?
The SEO Scorecard Generator is a simple, interactive tool designed to help business owners quickly evaluate how search-engine-friendly their website is. It functions like a mini diagnostic quiz—asking 8 essential questions about your site's SEO fundamentals, from metadata to page speed. With each answer, the tool calculates a score and provides a color-coded result: Excellent, Decent, or Needs Improvement.
Best of all? If your score comes up short, the tool offers a helpful next step—a call to action to schedule a free SEO audit with our team at RedBrick. So whether you're just starting to learn about SEO or you're in the middle of a website revamp, this tool is a fast and useful gut-check.
Why We Built It
SEO can feel overwhelming. Between meta tags, mobile responsiveness, and image alt attributes, it's hard to know where to begin—especially if you're a small business owner wearing multiple hats. We built this tool to cut through that noise and give you a quick, no-cost way to understand how your site stacks up.
The SEO Scorecard Generator was built with clarity in mind: no technical jargon, no complicated reports, just straight answers to basic questions every site should get right. If you can answer "yes" confidently to most of these, you're on the right track. If not—or if you're unsure—it might be time for a professional eye.
How It Works
A Simple Questionnaire Format
The tool presents 8 yes/no questions with an additional "I don't know" option to keep things easy and honest. These questions are based on core SEO principles such as:
- Do you have a unique meta title?
- Is your website secure (HTTPS)?
- Are your pages mobile-friendly?
- Do your images include alt text?
- Is your site fast (under 3 seconds)?
As you answer, the tool calculates a score based on how many SEO best practices your site meets. A "yes" gets full credit, an "I don't know" gets partial credit (0.5), and "no" gets zero. The final result is shown as a percentage, along with tailored feedback and a helpful next step.
Real-Time Feedback
The tool responds in real time with a score and a message tailored to your results:
- 80%-100%: Excellent! You're doing great.
- 60%-79%: Decent, but there's room for improvement.
- Below 60%: Needs improvement—action is recommended.
If your score is under 80%, a helpful message appears with a link to schedule a free SEO audit from RedBrick's team, giving you a clear path to better performance.
Why It's Useful for Business Owners
No Technical Experience Required
Many SEO tools assume the user has a developer's background. This one doesn't. The questions are plain-English, non-technical, and designed for anyone to understand—whether you're a solo entrepreneur, a marketing manager, or a CEO doing due diligence.
