  • Missing X-Frame-Options header

    Add X-Frame-Options (or a CSP frame-ancestors rule) to prevent clickjacking via hidden iframes.

  • Title longer than 60 characters

    Shorten the title to under 60 characters so search results don't truncate it.

  • Meta description longer than 160 characters

    SEO
