81/ 100Good

On November 2, 2026 the Site Spider crawled 4830 pages and 1000 assets of backlinks.tools, starting from https://backlinks.tools/. It scored 81 out of 100, a good result. 14 of 33 checks found something to fix, led by indexability (3,271), heavy assets (37), title tags (1,316); 6 checks passed. Most of the points went to indexability (−6.8), heavy assets (−6), title tags (−2.7). 13 checks found something the score does not count, listed as noted. 4 checks were not run because the crawl fetched nothing for them. The list below shows each check's result, the fix plan, when present, explains what to do first, and the security review at the end of the page covers headers, transport, libraries and exposed files.

Fix plan

Written by gpt-4o-mini from the scan findings

Your website has several critical issues, such as broken links and missing title tags. Addressing these will enhance user experience and search visibility.

  1. 1

    Fix Broken Links

    Why: 244 internal links point to broken URLs, harming user experience and SEO.

    How: Identify and update or remove broken links from your site.

    Checks: broken-links

  2. 2

    Resolve Non-200 Responses

    Why: 961 URLs do not return a 2xx response, affecting accessibility and rankings.

    How: Check URLs for errors and server issues, updating or removing as necessary.

    Checks: status-codes

  3. 3

    Address Title Tag Issues

    Why: 1316 pages have title issues, which can impact search visibility.

    How: Revise title tags for length and uniqueness, incorporating target keywords.

    Checks: titles

  4. 4

    Improve Meta Descriptions

    Why: 406 pages have meta description issues, potentially limiting click-through rates.

    How: Create unique, compelling meta descriptions for affected pages, focusing on clarity.

    Checks: meta-descriptions

  5. 5

    Fix Orphan Pages

    How: Add internal links to orphan pages from relevant content on your site.

    Checks: orphan-pages

  6. 6

    Optimize Heavy Assets

    Why: 37 assets are larger than 500 KB, slowing site performance.

    How: Compress images and scripts, prioritizing those listed in heavy asset tasks.

    Evidence: 216 KB of stylesheet, loaded by 4732 pages, so every visitor to any of them downloads it.

    4,732 pages affected

    Depends on: If it is a download rather than part of the page, weight matters less; move it out of the page instead.

    Checks: heavy-assets

Security review

Written by gpt-4o-mini from 16 checks over the crawl

Your website has some security vulnerabilities related to cookie protection, HTTP Strict Transport Security, and Content Security Policy. Addressing these issues will help protect your users from potential attacks. Priority should be given to implementing HSTS and enhancing cookie security.

  • 0 high
  • 3 medium
  • 1 low
  • 0 info
  1. 1

    Missing HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS)Medium

    Why it matters: Without HSTS, visitors can be intercepted on their first request by typing the non-HTTPS URL.

    Fix: Add the following header: Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains

    Evidence: HTTP Strict Transport Security

  2. 2

    Cookie Lacks Secure FlagMedium

    Why it matters: The PHPSESSID cookie can be sent over non-HTTPS connections, exposing it to interception.

    Fix: Set the Secure flag for the cookie to ensure it only travels over HTTPS.

    Evidence: Cookie flags

  3. 3

    Content Security Policy Allows Unsafe Inline ScriptsMedium

    Why it matters: Inline or eval scripts can lead to vulnerabilities like XSS, reducing the policy's effectiveness.

    Fix: Modify the CSP to remove 'unsafe-inline' and 'unsafe-eval'. Use: Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; img-src 'self' data:; script-src 'self';

    Evidence: Content Security Policy

  4. 4

    Third-party Scripts Missing Subresource IntegrityLow

    Why it matters: Third-party scripts can be modified, potentially running malicious code on your site.

    Fix: Use Subresource Integrity (SRI) attributes for the scripts or enforce stricter CSP to control which domains are allowed.

    Evidence: Third-party scripts

What the checks found

    No HTML page sends strict-transport-security. Without it a visitor who types the address without https:// can be intercepted on the first request.

  • FoundCookie flagsMedium

    1 of 1 cookie are missing protective flags. Without HttpOnly a script can read the cookie; without Secure it travels over plain HTTP; without SameSite it is sent on cross-site requests.

    • PHPSESSID (set by https://backlinks.tools/) lacks Secure
  • NoteContent Security Policy

    A Content-Security-Policy is set, but it allows inline or eval scripts ('unsafe-inline' / 'unsafe-eval'), which removes most of its protection against injected scripts.

  • NoteThird-party scripts

    Scripts run from 3 other domains without Subresource Integrity, so a compromise of any of them changes what runs on this site. (Tag managers and analytics rarely support SRI; a Content-Security-Policy that names these hosts is the usual control.)
