Content, Quality & Variety - Part 2, the Reason for my 0 score
SiteSupport inform me that the reason why my Content, Quality and Variety score is stuck at zero is because I am using the Thrive Themes visual editor. Here is what SS said:
Hi Jan,
We had a look into your Content score and found that the "Thrive Visual Editor" stores your content in such a way that we are unable to accurately analyze your content.
Disabling this plugin would solve this Content score discrepancy, but this plugin appears to be integral to your editing workflow. We think the best option is to leave the plugin as-is.
There we go! No real problem then. I will ignore the zero score.
Sigh...

I am using the same plugin and when you go to your WordPress editor there is actually no content except the title.
I am using this plugin only for organizing my Amazon resources page as well as my eBay resources page.
The content score is for WA only, by the way, my plugin score is zero as I am using more than 15 plugins.
Yes, of course, Belden. Spot on. It is simply the way that the Thrive Themes Content Builder works.
If a web page or post is created using all the rich options provided by Thrive software, as I do, then the actual ordinary WordPress editor registers zero content, just the page or post title.
I now realize that the WA robot only reads what is written in the WordPress editor. In my case, NOTHING! All my content is assembled in the Thrive Builder plugin.
Fortunately, when my content is published and goes live, it all as HTML and fully indexable by search engines.
Perhaps the WA robot should start to read what is actually published on the web in HTML instead of what we write in WordPress. That way, the WA Content, Quality & Variety score will be completely accurate and will not be affected by the various plugins WA members use.
This is something for the people here at WA to work on. Until that is rectified, members with Thrive and probably other useful plugins will receive inaccurate guidance.
I will from now on totally ignore my WA site stats and move on with creating rich content.
At least we have all learned something from this.
Janice.
Absolutely, and the reason why I do not use Thrive for my text contents is because Grammarly will not work.
I use Grammarly on the Grammarly site. I use Google Docs as my text editor. Grammarly is incompatible with Google Docs.
So, I copy and paste my work in Google Docs into Grammarly (the free version), sort out all the common clangers, then use the edited text in Thrive Themes. It works a treat!
Until Grammarly works with all platforms I will not pay for it. Besides, Grammarly is not perfect and at times thoroughly annoying.
Yeah, I am using the paid version and I wish it works directly on Thrive. The paid version has a great Plagiarism Tool it can even catch what Copyscape misses.

Hi, Janice.
This is very helpful information. Thank you for sharing it with us.
I "like"d it and each of the comments between you and Den (Belden) too: They're as informative as the post itself!
