When you're on the Adsense home page (I'm using the old version) and look towards the bottom right, there's a section called Google Scorecard. It displays Revenue Optimization, Site Health, and Google+ stats. Is this thing ever accurate, and should I pay any attention to it?
It tells me to diversify my ads with Text/Image for better revenue. I have, I always have... don't understand this. I've always simply ignored it.
It also tells me to upgrade speed performance for my sites, which I have for some pages but still have to do for others, so that's something I will have to look into further.
But what got me to post this thread is the last section, Google+. It remained excellent (4/5 dots) up until sometime last week. It's currently at 1/5 dots and I have no idea why. It says to place Google+ buttons on my sites... the only problem is, all of my sites already have them in place.
Should I even pay attention to this? Maybe I'm just overreacting after I optimized my site last week for speed and my earnings have dropped since. It feels like I'm going backward when moving forward.
