No privacy policy page found. Required by GDPR, CCPA, and most app store listings.
Terms of service page presence
No terms of service page found. Without one, you have no contractual basis for the relationship with your visitors.

Email health60Solid
You have DMARC set up, but in monitor-only mode — it's not actually rejecting spoofed mail.
No MTA-STS or TLS-RPT policy is published — incoming mail could be downgraded to plaintext.
DMARC aggregate reporting enabled (rua=)
No DMARC aggregate-reporting address is published — you wouldn't see spoofing attempts.
Free-email exposure on contact page (gmail/yahoo/outlook visible)
You're showing a free Gmail / Yahoo / Outlook address on your site. Visitors can't tell whether the inbox really belongs to you, and search engines treat the listing as less trustworthy.
Lead magnet / signup incentive detected (free download, ebook, etc.)
We didn't find a lead magnet on your homepage — no free download, sample, or signup incentive. Visitors who aren't ready to buy have nothing to take with them.
Email provider class (Workspace / 365 / Zoho / self-hosted / shared)
We couldn't confidently identify which service is hosting your email.
SPF is set and lists your sending services as approved senders.
Branded domain email address (vs free Gmail/Yahoo)
You send email from your own domain, not a free Gmail/Yahoo address.
SPF lookup count (10-limit deliverability check)
Your SPF record uses fewer than 10 DNS lookups — under the spec limit.
Mailto: direct contact link present
Your site exposes a mailto: link visitors can tap to start a message.
Email forwarding service detected (improvmx, forwardemail, etc.)

Security67Excellent
There's no CAA record at your registrar saying which companies are allowed to issue certificates for you.
Your domain isn't on Chrome's HSTS preload list. The first visit from a new browser still has a brief window where an attacker could intercept it.
Your server doesn't staple OCSP. Visitors' browsers may have to contact the CA themselves, slowing first connects.
Neither OCSP stapling nor Must-Staple is in play. A revoked cert wouldn't be caught quickly.
Certificate key strength and signature algorithm
Your certificate uses outdated key strength or a SHA-1 signature. Reissue with a modern ACME-class cert.
Embedded SCT count (Certificate Transparency)
Your certificate carries only one embedded SCT — modern browsers want at least two. Reissue from a CA that includes them.
Your certificate issuer isn't on the tier-1 trust list. Move to a mainstream public CA.
WordPress REST API user enumeration exposure
Your WordPress site exposes its user list through the REST API. Attackers can enumerate every account by username — the first half of any credential-stuffing attack is already done for them.
Your site isn't sending any of the standard browser-protection headers.
Sensitive path exposure (.git, .env, /admin, xmlrpc.php, wp-login.php)
Some common admin or developer paths are reachable from the public internet.
SSL certificate validity & expiration window
Your SSL certificate is valid and not close to expiring.
Only modern TLS (1.2 and above) is offered — TLS 1.0 and 1.1 are turned off.
Certificate chain completeness
Your server sends the full certificate chain — every device builds the path to a trusted root cleanly.
Certificate validity-period brevity
Your certificate uses a short validity window (≤ 90 days) — auto-renewal keeps revocation fast and frictionless.
Your TLS handshake completes quickly — under 300ms on a cold connection.

Performance68Excellent
Image optimization (WebP/AVIF)
Your images are served as JPEG or PNG when modern formats (WebP, AVIF) would cut their size by 30–60% with no visible loss.
Lazy loading on below-fold images
Images below the fold aren't lazy-loaded — visitors download them up front even if they never scroll that far.
Mobile PageSpeed score + Core Web Vitals (LCP, FCP, CLS)
Your homepage is slow on mobile. The data Google uses to rank pages says real visitors wait too long for it to feel ready.
Your server compresses pages with Brotli or gzip — visitors download a fraction of the raw size.
Font loading strategy (FOUT/FOIT/swap)
Your fonts swap in cleanly — text is readable in the system font while custom fonts download.

We couldn't find a LinkedIn Company Page for this business. B2B prospects look for it before reaching out.
Apple Maps presence (Apple Business Connect)
