Top issues to fix

6 issues found · 3 high priority

  • Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

    Security

    Add HSTS so browsers always use HTTPS — this closes the protocol-downgrade attack window.

  • Missing Content-Security-Policy header

    Security

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

  • No H1 heading found

    SEO

    Add exactly one H1 describing the page's main topic — it anchors the document outline for search engines and screen readers.

  • Missing canonical link

    SEO

    Add <link rel="canonical"> so search engines know which URL variant to index.

  • No structured data (JSON-LD) found

    SEO

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

  • sitemap.xml not found

    SEO

    Publish an XML sitemap and reference it from robots.txt to speed up page discovery.
