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.
Lead magnet / signup incentive detected (free download, ebook, etc.)

Security76Excellent
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.
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.
Neither OCSP stapling nor Must-Staple is in play. A revoked cert wouldn't be caught quickly.
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.
Certificate validity-period brevity
Your certificate lifetime is on the longer end (> 90 days). ACME-class certs renew every 60-90 days and rotate cleanly.
Your site is sending the standard browser-protection headers.
SSL certificate validity & expiration window
Your SSL certificate is valid and not close to expiring.
Sensitive path exposure (.git, .env, /admin, xmlrpc.php, wp-login.php)
None of the common admin or developer paths are publicly reachable.
Only modern TLS (1.2 and above) is offered — TLS 1.0 and 1.1 are turned off.
Modern cipher suite preference
The handshake negotiates a modern AEAD cipher (AES-GCM or ChaCha20-Poly1305).
Forward secrecy is guaranteed by the negotiated handshake — past traffic stays unreadable even if your key leaks.
Certificate key strength and signature algorithm
Your certificate uses strong modern math (ECDSA P-256+ or RSA-2048+ with SHA-256+).
Certificate chain completeness
Your server sends the full certificate chain — every device builds the path to a trusted root cleanly.
Your server staples a fresh OCSP response — visitors don't have to round-trip to the CA on first connect.
Your certificate is issued by a tier-1 publicly trusted CA (Let's Encrypt, DigiCert, Google Trust, Sectigo, etc.).
Your TLS handshake completes quickly — under 300ms on a cold connection.

Performance81Excellent
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 mid-pack on mobile. Reasonable but Google's ranking signal rewards faster sites.
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.
