- Pagespeed Insight Score is the score given by Google's Pagespeed Insight tool, which analyses a web page on desktop devices based on its actual performance and recommends certain actions accordingly.

Step 4: After clicking on details, you will be taken to a page with Google's Pagespeed Insight tool score
First, let us understand the Pagespeed Insight Score. It is the score Google is assigning your website homepage's page speed on desktop devices, based on its actual performance.
There are two sections within this:
- Fixes are the number of recommendations that you still need to work on.
- The Already Fixed number tells you the number of recommendations you have already performed and completed.
Based on your Pagespeed Insight score, you will receive recommendations for enhancing your page load speed. You can also check which recommendation holds more weight in the Rule Impact column. Rule Impact represents the positive impact on your site, once a recommendation is followed, in a numeric value. Higher the number, the higher the impact.
You can click on the v sign to learn more about any specific recommendation.
