Competitor Domains Test
Competitor Domains

Understand your competitors' SEO and backlink profile

Get related competitors and their domain authority score in relation to your domain.

Identifies up to ten domains that compete for similar organic search results, ranked by overall domain authority based on the volume and quality of their backlink profiles. Useful for benchmarking the competitive landscape and prioritizing which sites to study for content and link-building strategy.
Robots.txt Test
Your site lacks a "robots.txt" file. This file can protect private content from appearing online, save bandwidth, and lower load time on your server. A missing "robots.txt" file also generates additional errors in your apache log whenever robots request one. Read more about the robots.txt file, and how to create one for your site.

Robots.txt Test

How to pass this test?

In order to pass this test you must create and properly install a robots.txt file.
For this, you can use any program that produces a text file or you can use an online tool (Google Webmaster Tools has this feature).
Remember to use all lower case for the filename: robots.txt, not ROBOTS.TXT.
A simple robots.txt file looks like this:
User-agent: *
Disallow: /cgi-bin/
Disallow: /images/
Disallow: /pages/thankyou.html
This would block all search engine robots from visiting "cgi-bin" and "images" directories and the page "http://www.yoursite.com/pages/thankyou.html"

TIPS:
  • You need a separate Disallow line for every URL prefix you want to exclude
  • You may not have blank lines in a record because they are used to delimit multiple records
  • Notice that before the Disallow command, you have the command: User-agent: *. The User-agent: part specifies which robot you want to block. Major known crawlers are: Googlebot (Google), Googlebot-Image (Google Image Search), Baiduspider (Baidu), Bingbot (Bing)
  • One important thing to know if you are creating your own robots.txt file is that although the wildcard (*) is used in the User-agent line (meaning "any robot"), it is not allowed in the Disallow line.
  • Regular expressions are not supported in either the User-agent or Disallow lines
Once you have your robots.txt file, you can upload it in the top-level directory of your web server. After that, make sure you set the permissions on the file so that visitors (like search engines) can read it.
Check if your website is using a robots.txt file. When search engine robots crawl a website, they typically first access a site's robots.txt file. Robots.txt tells Googlebot and other crawlers what is and is not allowed to be crawled on your site.
Sitemap Test
This website has a sitemap file.
Check if the website has a sitemap. A sitemap is important as it lists all the web pages of the site and let search engine crawlers to crawl the website more intelligently. A sitemap also provides valuable metadata for each webpage.
Image Alt Test
Your webpage has 23 'img' tags and none of them contain the required 'alt' attribute.

Image Alt Test

How to pass this test?

In order to pass this test you must add an alt attribute to every <img> tag used into your webpage.
An image with an alternate text specified is inserted using the following HTML line:
<img src="image.png" alt="text_to_describe_your_image">
Remember that the point of alt text is to provide the same functional information that a visual user would see. Search engines, users who disabled images in their browsers and other agents who are unable to see the images on your webpage can read the alt attributes assigned to the image since they cannot view it.

Learn more about optimizing images for SEO.
Check if images on your webpage are using alt attributes. If an image cannot be displayed (e.g., due to broken image source, slow internet connection, etc), the alt attribute provides alternative information. Using relevant keywords and text in the alt attribute can help both users and search engines better interpret the subject of an image.
Deprecated HTML Tags
Congratulations! Your page does not use HTML deprecated tags.
Check if your webpage is using old, deprecated HTML tags. These tags will eventually lose browser support and your web pages may render incorrectly as browsers drop support for these tags.
Google Analytics Test
Congratulations! Your website is using the latest version of Google Analytics.
Check if your website is connected with Google Analytics. Google Analytics is a popular, free website analysis tool that helps provide insights about your site's traffic and demographics.
Favicon Test
favicon
Congratulations! Your website appears to have a favicon.
Check if your site is using and correctly implementing a favicon. Favicons are small icons that appear in your browser's URL navigation bar. They are also saved next to your URL's title when your page is bookmarked. This helps brand your site and make it easy for users to navigate to your site among a list of bookmarks.
JS Error Checker
Congratulations! There are no severe JavaScript errors on your web page.
Check your page for JavaScript errors. These errors may prevent users from properly viewing your pages and impact their user experience. Sites with poor user experience tend to rank worse in search engine results.

HTML Page Size Test
Check your page's HTML size. HTML size is the size of all the HTML code on your web page - this size does not include images, external javascripts or external CSS files.
HTML Compression/GZIP Test
Your page do not use any HTML compression!
You should compress your HTML to reduce your page size and page loading times - this will help your site retain visitors and increase page views. If you were using compression, you could be compressing your HTML size by 75 % - from 23.36 Kb to 5.88 Kb which would further reduce your page loading time.

HTML Compression/GZIP Test

How to pass this test?

Your two options for file compression are Deflate and GZIP.
  • Deflate is an option which comes automatically with the Apache server and which is simple to set up.
  • GZIP on the other hand needs to be installed and requires a bit more work to install. However, GZIP does achieve a higher compression rate and therefore might be a better choice if your website uses pages which have a lot of images or large file sizes.
Setting up file compression for your website will depend on which type of server you?re using for your website. Most likely, you?ll be using Apache, which means you can enable compression by adding a few deflate codes to your .htaccess file.
# compress text, html, javascript, css, xml:
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/plain
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/xml
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/css
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/xml
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/xhtml+xml
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/rss+xml
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/javascript
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/x-javascript
For more advanced information regarding deflate you can check this Apache documentation.
Check if your website is using HTML compression. HTML compression plays an important role in improving website speed by finding similar strings within a text file and replacing them temporarily to reduce overall file size.
Site Loading Speed Test
Your site loading time is around 5.397 seconds and is over the average loading speed which is 5 seconds.

Accurate historical loading speed monitor and reports

Get detailed and accurate loading speed reports for your websites and see how your pages are being loaded over time.

Check your website's loading speed. Page speed is an important factors in search engine rankings and overall site success. Pages that take longer than 5 seconds to load can lose up to 50% of users. Faster webpages result in higher traffic, better conversions and increased sales over slower loading pages.
Page Objects
Your page has more than 20 http requests, which can slow down page loading. You can try reducing http requests through various methods such as using text instead of images, using css sprites, using data URIs instead of images, or combining several external files together into one.
Total Objects: 54
  • 2 HTML Pages
  • 9 CSS Files
  • 11 JS Files
  • 32 Images
  • 0 Flash Files
Check if all the objects requested by this webpage can be retrieved. If they are not retrievable, your page may display incorrectly, leading to a bad user experience and lower search engine rankings.
Image Caching Test
Your site is not using expires headers for your images. An expires tag can help speed up the serving of your webpages for users that regularly visit your site and see the same images. Learn more about how to add expires headers to your images.

Image Caching Test

How to pass this test?

In order to reduce the number of HTTP requests, you can use the HTTP Expires header to set an expiration time for your images or any other content type. You can add the following lines into your .htaccess file:
<IfModule mod_expires.c>
    ExpiresActive on
 
    ExpiresByType image/jpg "access plus 1 month"
    ExpiresByType image/jpeg "access plus 1 month"
    ExpiresByType image/gif "access plus 1 month"
    ExpiresByType image/png "access plus 1 month"
</IfModule>
Checks if your page is using an image expires tag, which specifies a future expiration date for your images. Users browsers will see this tag and cache the image in their browser until the specified date (so that it does not keep re-fetching the unchanged image from your server). This speeds up your site the next time returning visitors arrive at your site and require the same image.
URL Redirects Checker
Congratulations! Your URL doesn't have any redirects (which could potentially cause site indexation issues and site loading delays).
Check how many redirects your URL will perform to resolve to the final destination URL. Redirects often cause search engine indexing issues and can also lead to some minor loading delays. Google recommends removing or keeping redirects to a minimum.

URL Canonicalization Test
Test your site for potential URL canonicalization issues. Canonicalization describes how a site can use slightly different URLs for the same page (e.g., if http://www.example.com and http://example.com displays the same page but do not resolve to the same URL). If this happens, search engines may be unsure about which URL is the correct one to index. Learn more about canonicalization issues.
HTTPS Test
Your website is not using https, a secure communication protocol. Even for sites that do not collect sensitive customer information, search engines suggest that switching to https is an increasingly good idea and may help improve rankings. Note: if your site relies primarily on adsense income, be aware that using https may be detrimental to ad earnings.

HTTPS Test

How to pass this test?

If your website needs a secured authentication or an encrypted transfer of data, you need to install an SSL certificate in order to provide a secure connection over HTTPS protocol. HERE is a "step by step" guide to purchase and install an SSL certificate.
Check if your website is using HTTPS, a secure protocol for sending/receiving data over the Internet. Using HTTPS indicates that an additional encryption/authentication layer was added between client and server. HTTPS should be used by any site that collects sensitive customer data such as credit card information. Even for sites that do not collect such data, switching to https helps users by improving privacy and overall security. Google is increasingly using https as a positive ranking factor.
Plaintext Emails Test
We found 1 email addresses in your page code. We advise you to protect email links in a way that hides them from the spam harvesters.

Plaintext Emails Test

How to pass this test?

In order to pass this test you must make your email addresses invisible to email spiders. Note that the best option is to replace your entire contact mechanism with a contact form and using the POST method while submitting the form. Other solutions are listed below:
  • replace the at (@) and dot (.) characters
  • replace text with images
  • use email obfuscators
  • hide email addresses using JavaScript or CSS trick
Check your webpage for plaintext email addresses. Any e-mail address posted in public is likely to be automatically collected by computer software used by bulk emailers (a process known as e-mail address harvesting). A spam harvester can read through the pages in your site and extract plaintext email addresses which are then added to bulk marketing databases (resulting in more inbox spam). There are several methods for email obfuscation.

Microdata Schema Test
Your webpage doesn't take the advantages of HTML Microdata specifications in order to markup structured data. View Google's guide for getting started with microdata.

Microdata Schema Test

How to pass this test?

HTML5 Microdata is an easy way to add semantic markup to your web pages. Search engines rely on this markup to improve the display of search results, making it easier for people to find the right web pages.
Here is a simple example of how to use HTML5 microdata in your contact web page:
<div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Person">
   <span itemprop="name">Joe Doe</span>
   <span itemprop="company">The Example Company</span>
   <span itemprop="tel">604-555-1234</span>
   <a itemprop="email" href="mailto:joe.doe@example.com">joe.doe@example.com</a>
</div>
Check if your website uses HTML Microdata specifications (or structured data markup). Search engines use microdata to better understand the content of your site and create rich snippets in search results (which helps increase click-through rate to your site).
Noindex Checker
Your webpage does not use the noindex meta tag. This means that your webpage will be read and indexed by search engines.
Check if your webpage is using the robots meta tag or the X-Robots-Tag HTTP header to instruct search engines not to show your site in search results pages.
Canonical Tag Checker
Your page does not use the canonical link tag.
Check if your webpage is using the canonical link tag. The canonical link tag is used to nominate a primary page when you have several pages with duplicate or very similar content.
Nofollow Checker
Your webpage does not use the nofollow meta tag. This means that search engines will crawl all links from your webpage.
Check if your webpage is using the robots meta tag or the X-Robots-Tag HTTP header to instruct search engines not to follow the links on your page. Outgoing links marked with this tag will tell search engines not to follow or crawl that particular link. Google recommends that nofollow tags are used for paid advertisements on your site and links to pages that have not been vetted as trusted sites (e.g., links posted by users of your site).
Disallow Directive Checker
Your site lacks a "robots.txt" file. This file can protect private content from appearing online, save bandwidth, and lower load on your server. A missing "robots.txt" file also generates additional errors in your apache log whenever robots request one.
Check if your robots.txt file is instructing search engine crawlers to avoid parts of your website. The disallow directive is used in robots.txt to tell search engines not to crawl and index a file, page, or directory.
SPF records checker
Congratulations! Your DNS server is using an SPF record. This SPF record is listed below:
v=spf1 a mx ip4:5.77.38.140 ip4:5.77.38.141 mx:mail.ukc05.uk mx:mail.cleverpig.co.uk ~all
Check if your DNS records contains an SPF record. SPF (Sender Policy Framework) records allow email systems to verify if a given mail server has been authorized to send mail on behalf of your domain. Creating an SPF record increases email delivery rates by reducing the likelihood of your email being marked as spam.
