Top issues to fix

6 issues found · 3 high priority

  • TLS certificate expires in 11 days

    Security

    Renew now (or enable auto-renewal) — an expired certificate blocks visitors with a full-page browser warning.

  • Missing Content-Security-Policy header

    Security

    Add a CSP to control which sources can run scripts — the strongest single defense against XSS.

  • Missing meta description

    SEO

    Add a ~150-character meta description to control your search-result snippet and lift click-through rate.

  • Multiple H1 headings found

    SEO

    Keep a single H1 per page and demote the others to H2/H3.

  • No structured data (JSON-LD) found

    SEO

    Add JSON-LD (Organization, Article, Product…) to become eligible for rich results.

  • 2 broken links on the page

    SEO

    Fix or remove broken links — they waste crawl budget and erode user trust.
