Unlike your raw credit data, which is added to and updated on (at least) a monthly basis; credit scores are a calculation that is only performed when requested. The calculation is based on ALL the factors that are showing in your credit.
Techniques to Improve your Credit Scores:
1. Always pay accounts in a timely manner.
2. 2-4 revolving accounts increase scores. The length of time they have been open is important, so is usage. You need to use them every month. But, keep the balance below 30% of whatever your credit limit is.
3. Control and limit inquiries. I don't know how you are "checking" your score. You might be doing more harm than good. "Hard" inquiries cause a 4 point deduction.
4. The type of accounts matter. Even one finance account can cause a deduction, even if the account is paid as agreed.
Credit scores are a numerical computation of your perceived risk as a borrower based on the information in your credit report. The riskier you look the lower your score. The better you stack up to people who pay their bills on time, the higher your score.
