Top priorities for website improvement

  • Sign up for a Twitter account and make sure it is linked to from your site. (read more)
  • Remove or reduce the number of query parameters in URLs. Consider URL rewriting as an effective and transparent means of creating appropriate URLs. (read more)
  • Check how the website looks using a tablet and consider adding tablet-only styling using media queries. Some websites employ other techniques for mobile and tablet visitors which we cannot currently detect. (read more)

Twitter0.0

Help

This website does not appear to be associated with a Twitter account.

  • This website did not contain a link to Twitter.
    • Sign up for a Twitter account and make sure it is linked to from your site.

URL format4.0

Help

  • 3 URLs are 'dirty'. 'Dirty' URLs include one or more parameters after a question mark (e.g. www.example.com/?pagename=news), instead of a clean URL (e.g. www.example.com/news). Dirty URLs should generally be avoided wherever possible - they are almost impossible for human beings to remember, may expose the technology of the website to hackers and can confuse search engines among other problems. Their use is sometimes necessary for specific applications, and acceptable in small amounts.
  • 4 URLs include a file extension.
    • Avoid use of file extensions wherever possible. File extensions appear at the end of web addresses, and have several negative effects. They make the address harder to remember or type (particularly for non-technical users), and can reveal the underlying technology of the website making it very slightly more vulnerable to hackers. They also tie the implementation of the website to a specific technology, which can make subsequent migration of URLs difficult. Consider URL rewriting as an effective and transparent means of creating appropriate URLs.

Server behaviour9.2

Help

Yes404 page

YesCompression

  • This website handles missing pages correctly by sending a 404 HTTP status code.
  • This website was served with GZIP encoding. This is very good because it reduces the loading time of a web page.
  • 2 of the pages of this website return page content with or without a trailing slash on their URLs. Search engines might see these as separate pages with duplicate content which they could penalise for.
  • 2 of the pages of this website return page content with or without a trailing slash on their URLs, but they use a canonical tag to denote the correct version. This is ideal, as search engines will know which version to index.
  • This test is not applicable as this website appears to be on a subdomain.

Internal links9.9

Help

  • One link has no text describing its destination. Links on a page should describe their destination for the benefit of both screen readers and search engine spiders.
    • Add meaningful anchor text that describes the link's destination. If the link contains an image, ensure you have provided alt text.

      Empty link text
