Pass4Fail3
Fail

Your site uses the newest connection style

Your server still serves over the older HTTP/2 protocol — not the newer, faster HTTP/3.

WEBQ-30
Fail

Reachable on the modern internet

Your domain has no IPv6 address — only the older IPv4.

WEBQ-31
Fail

How fast your site loads on a phone

Your homepage is slow on mobile. The data Google uses to rank pages says real visitors wait too long for it to feel ready.

WEBQ-08
Pass

Pages get squeezed before they're sent

Your server compresses pages with Brotli or gzip — visitors download a fraction of the raw size.

WEBQ-10
Pass

Your homepage isn't bloated

Your homepage downloads at a reasonable size.

WEBQ-37
Pass

Your photos are saved in modern formats

Your images use modern formats (WebP / AVIF) — visitors download a fraction of the bytes.

WEBQ-32
Pass

Photos lower on the page wait their turn

Below-fold images use loading="lazy" — they download only when the visitor scrolls toward them.

Pass4Fail2
Fail

Your reviews on Trustpilot

We couldn't find a Trustpilot listing. Many consumers check Trustpilot before buying — a missing listing reads as a missing reputation.

WEBQ-60
Fail

Your company page on LinkedIn

We couldn't find a LinkedIn Company Page for this business. B2B prospects look for it before reaching out.

WEBQ-62
Pass

How long your site has been online

Your site has been online for years — public archives have a long history of it.

WEBQ-18
Pass

Whether anyone's written about you lately

Recent news mentions of your domain were found.

WEBQ-20
Pass

Whether you have a Wikipedia entry

Your business has a Wikipedia entry — a strong reputation signal.

WEBQ-21
Pass

A contact form people can actually find

A visible contact form is reachable from your homepage.

Fail

A way to skip past the menu

No skip-to-content link is published. Keyboard users have to tab through every nav item on every page before reaching the content.

WEBQ-58
Review

Your headings are in a sensible order

Your heading levels skip — for example, an H1 followed by an H3 with no H2 in between. Screen reader users lose the outline of the page.

WEBQ-55
Pass

Your photos have written descriptions

Every image on your homepage has alt text — screen readers can describe them.

WEBQ-54
Pass

Your buttons and forms are labeled for screen readers

Interactive elements have proper ARIA labels — screen reader users get a clear description of each control.

California privacy opt-out link

No CCPA "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" link found. If you have California visitors and sell or share data, this is required.

WEBQ-50
Pass

How many outside companies you let watch your visitors

Your homepage loads a reasonable number of third-party services — clean privacy footprint.

WEBQ-49
Pass

Your homepage sets only essential cookies before consent. Non-essential cookies fire after opt-in.

WEBQ-51
Pass

You have a privacy policy page

Pass10Review3Fail3
Fail

Your domain can't be quietly hijacked

DNSSEC is not enabled on your domain.

WEBQ-22
Fail

Visitors connect faster on the first click

Your server doesn't staple OCSP. Visitors' browsers may have to contact the CA themselves, slowing first connects.

WEBQ-91
Fail

Strict mode for your padlock check

Neither OCSP stapling nor Must-Staple is in play. A revoked cert wouldn't be caught quickly.

WEBQ-96
Review

Your certificate is publicly logged

Your certificate carries only one embedded SCT — modern browsers want at least two. Reissue from a CA that includes them.

WEBQ-92
Review

Your padlock renews on a healthy schedule

Your certificate lifetime is on the longer end (> 90 days). ACME-class certs renew every 60-90 days and rotate cleanly.

WEBQ-95
Review

Only your approved vendors can issue your padlock

There's no CAA record at your registrar saying which companies are allowed to issue certificates for you.

WEBQ-23
Pass

Your padlock isn't about to expire

Your SSL certificate is valid and not close to expiring.

WEBQ-05
Pass

Browser-level protections for visitors

Your site is sending the standard browser-protection headers.

WEBQ-04
Pass

Private files aren't open to the public

None of the common admin or developer paths are publicly reachable.

WEBQ-07
Pass

Your site is on the browser-baked-in safe list

Your domain is on the HSTS preload list — every modern browser refuses HTTP before the first visit, closing the bootstrap window.

WEBQ-26
Pass

Old TLS versions are turned off

Only modern TLS (1.2 and above) is offered — TLS 1.0 and 1.1 are turned off.

WEBQ-27
Pass

Forgotten subdomains aren't an open door

No forgotten or claimable subdomains were found.

WEBQ-28
Pass

Your padlock isn't using outdated keys

Your certificate uses strong modern math (ECDSA P-256+ or RSA-2048+ with SHA-256+).

WEBQ-89
Pass

Your padlock loads cleanly on every device

Your server sends the full certificate chain — every device builds the path to a trusted root cleanly.

WEBQ-90
Pass

Your padlock comes from a reputable vendor

Your certificate is issued by a tier-1 publicly trusted CA (Let's Encrypt, DigiCert, Google Trust, Sectigo, etc.).

WEBQ-97
Pass

Your site finishes its handshake quickly

Your TLS handshake completes quickly — under 300ms on a cold connection.

You get reports when someone fakes your email

You're set up to receive daily DMARC reports of spoofing attempts.

WEBQ-77
Pass

Your email setup is under a hidden limit

Your SPF record uses fewer than 10 DNS lookups — under the spec limit.

WEBQ-82
Pass

Your email is being forwarded, not hosted

Mail to this domain is being forwarded — you have working email reachability.

A trail showing where visitors are on your site

No breadcrumb schema is published. Search engines can't show breadcrumb trails under your listings, and visitors lose the trail to important pages.

WEBQ-40
Review

How well your site feeds AI the right facts

We couldn't find any organization details in your page's structured data.

WEBQ-45

Pass

How your site appears when shared or in search results
