Top issues to fix
9 issues found · 3 high priority

Missing Content-Security-Policy header
SecurityAdd a CSP to control which sources can run scripts — the strongest single defense against XSS.
No H1 heading found
SEOAdd exactly one H1 describing the page's main topic — it anchors the document outline for search engines and screen readers.
Missing X-Content-Type-Options header
SecurityAdd X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff to stop MIME-sniffing attacks.
Missing X-Frame-Options header
SecurityAdd X-Frame-Options (or a CSP frame-ancestors rule) to prevent clickjacking via hidden iframes.
Missing canonical link
SEOAdd <link rel="canonical"> so search engines know which URL variant to index.
