The new record describes this as an AEO readiness working reference; the earlier baseline uses an overall visibility index. Without a documented common method, these values should not be treated as a verified improvement in the same metric. The category scores below remain the October 8 baseline.

About this assessment
These user-supplied planning assessment scores come from the Customer AEO Proposal planning assessment. They are index scores, not independently audited measurements or Google-issued scores. The overall 34/100 is retained as reported; the full weighting formula is not documented, so it is not calculated as an average of the four categories.
These remain the October 2026 baseline until the next formal measurement. Goals guide the work and do not guarantee growth. YouTube views and subscribers are separate channel measures, not this visibility index.
Future assessments will include their dates, method and supporting evidence. No client’s scores are shown in this graph.
