Ways by which you can 
increase your credit 
score
It is a very common myth that when you 
check your credit report online, it affects 
your credit score. However, this

Why does your credit score not 
affect your credit profile?
The credit score check will not damage or 
impact your credit profile because it is an online 
soft check. What damages your credit profile is the 
hard inquiry run by the loan provider when you 
apply for a loan. Since they run a background 
check on your credit profile, it damages your credit 
score. However, when you simply 
check your credit score online, it will be a soft 
check to get your credit score only. Therefore, you 
should always check your credit score to keep 
yourself informed and enjoy other benefits as well.
