Website Health Check

Marketing only pays off when your website is actually ready for visitors. The Health Check scans your homepage and grades it across four areas — so you know what to fix before you spend energy driving traffic.

⚙️ How It Works

1️⃣

You add your URL

Set your project's domain once. The check uses that URL — no plugins, scripts, or code changes needed.

2️⃣

We scan your homepage

We fetch your page and supporting files (sitemap, robots.txt, SSL, and more), then run each check automatically.

3️⃣

You get a score

Each check passes, warns, or fails. Open any check for a plain-English explanation and exactly what to fix.

✅ What It Checks

The 14 checks are grouped into four categories. Here's every check and why it matters.

🔍

SEO

How easily search engines and AI crawlers can find, read, and rank your site.

Sitemap.xml

Checks if sitemap.xml exists and contains valid URLs

What is a Sitemap? A sitemap.xml file lists all the important pages on your website, helping search engines discover and index your content more effectively.

Robots.txt

Checks if robots.txt exists and allows proper indexing

What is Robots.txt? A robots.txt file tells search engine crawlers which pages or sections of your site they can or cannot request, guiding how your site is crawled and indexed.

LLMs.txt

Checks for llms.txt file to control AI training on your content

What is LLMs.txt? An llms.txt file gives large language models structured guidance about your site — what it does, key pages, and how your content may be used by AI systems.

SEO Metadata

Checks for essential SEO metadata tags including title, description, and other important elements

What is SEO Metadata? SEO metadata includes your page title and description that appear in search results. These elements — along with viewport, character encoding, and canonical URL — help search engines understand your content and show it to users.

Open Graph Tags

Checks for Open Graph tags used by social media platforms for rich link previews

What are Open Graph Tags? Open Graph tags control how your pages look when shared on social media — the title, description, and preview image that appear in rich link previews.

Favicon

Checks for favicon presence and loads successfully

What is a Favicon? A favicon is the small icon shown in browser tabs, bookmarks, and history. It reinforces your brand and helps users quickly identify your site.

Broken Links

Checks if all links on the homepage are working and not broken

Why do Broken Links matter? Broken links hurt user experience and waste crawl budget. Search engines may see them as a sign of poor maintenance, which can affect rankings.

H1 Structure

Checks for the existence of an <h1> tag and whether heading tags follow a logical order

What is H1 Structure? Headings (H1–H6) give your content a logical hierarchy. A single, descriptive H1 and ordered subheadings help both readers and search engines understand your page.

📈

GROWTH

Whether you can actually measure your marketing and see what's working.

Analytics Setup

Checks if your website has analytics tools properly configured for tracking user behavior

Why set up Analytics? Analytics tools track how visitors find and use your site, so you can measure the impact of your marketing and make data-driven decisions.

⚡

PERFORMANCE

Speed and delivery details that affect both user experience and rankings.

WWW Redirect

Checks if www and non-www versions redirect to a canonical URL

What is a WWW Redirect? Serving your site on both www and non-www without a redirect splits SEO signals and can cause duplicate content. One canonical version should redirect to the other.

Image Optimization

Analyzes image formats, sizes, alt text, and lazy loading implementation

Why optimize Images? Optimized images (modern formats, correct sizes, alt text, and lazy loading) load faster, improve accessibility, and boost both UX and search rankings.

🔒

SECURITY & COMPLIANCE

Trust, encryption, and compliance signals that protect you and your visitors.

SSL Certificate

Checks if HTTPS connection works and SSL certificate is valid

What is an SSL Certificate? An SSL certificate enables HTTPS, encrypting traffic between your site and visitors. It protects user data and is a confirmed search ranking signal.

HTTPS Redirect

Checks if HTTP traffic redirects to HTTPS

What is an HTTPS Redirect? An HTTPS redirect forces insecure HTTP requests to the secure HTTPS version of your site, ensuring all traffic is encrypted and avoiding duplicate URLs.

Policy Pages

Checks if your website includes links to a Privacy Policy and Terms of Service

Why do Policy Pages matter? A Privacy Policy and Terms of Service build trust, are often legally required, and are expected by payment providers, ad networks, and app stores.

🏆 How Scoring Works

Pass

The check found everything it expects — no action needed.

Warn

It works, but there's room to improve. Worth a look when you have time.

Fail

Something important is missing or broken. Fix these first.

Your overall score is the percentage of checks that pass. Each category shows its own score too, so you can see at a glance whether your gaps are in SEO, growth, performance, or security. You can re-run the check any time to track your progress.

Run your first Health Check

Add your project, drop in your URL, and get your score in seconds. Fix what matters, then start driving traffic with confidence.
