How reliable are website testers?

[Lithius]

Hello All,

how much should you consider a website that gets less than 50% on
websitegrader.com or any other website grader site for that matter?

is it wise to trust a website that does not get a good score?
is it even necessary for your website to have a great score before you start making money?

i am looking to be an affiliate and thought about checking out the website ratings for sites as part of my filter process before marketing for that website.

looking for opinions from anyone who uses website grader, google optimizer etc.

thanks in advance for your opinions.

its important not to take website graders like this TOO seriously.

You might make a website that is making a lot of money but has a terrible grade, and one with a fantastic grade but makes no money.

Using tools like these gives you ideas of things to improve on, but at the end of the day its YOU and your users who decided what is important to your site.

Hope this helps
