Download SQLite databaseEvery page and asset from this scan, with the crawl events, in one file.
On November 1, 2026 the Site Spider crawled 215 pages and 4031 assets of picstory.ca, starting from https://picstory.ca/. It scored 64 out of 100, a result that needs work. 12 of 33 checks found something to fix, led by meta descriptions (178), heavy assets (410), thin content (134); 9 checks passed. Most of the points went to meta descriptions (−7.5), heavy assets (−6), thin content (−5.6). 12 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 findingsYour site has multiple issues affecting SEO performance. Prioritize fixing broken links, missing meta descriptions, and titles. Consider addressing the sitemap and heading issues for better indexability.
- 1
Fix Broken Links
Why: 22 internal links lead to broken URLs, harming user experience and SEO.
How: Check each broken link and either restore the destination or remove the reference.
Evidence: https://picstory.ca/Downloads/240915.zip answers 404, and one page links to it with anchor text such as "Download".
1 page affected
Depends on: If the destination was deleted on purpose, remove the links rather than redirecting to an unrelated page.
Checks: broken-links
- 2
Add Missing Meta Descriptions
Why: Meta descriptions are vital for search rankings and click-through rates.
How: Create unique meta descriptions for each of the 178 pages.
Evidence: 178 pages have no meta description at all.
178 pages affected
Checks: meta-descriptions
- 3
Improve Title Tags
Why: 16 pages have title issues, which can impact search visibility.
How: Revise short titles to be more descriptive and within optimal length.
Checks: titles
- 4
Revise Sitemap Coverage
Why: Inaccurate sitemap entries reduce content visibility on search engines.
How: Update the sitemap to remove noindex URLs and include missing pages.
Evidence: 2 URLs: sitemap url is noindex.
2 pages affected
Checks: sitemap-coverage
- 5
Add Missing Headings
Why: 80 pages lack proper headings, which can affect content structure and SEO.
How: Add H1 tags to pages without them to improve SEO and organization.
Evidence: 73 pages: missing h1.
73 pages affected
Checks: headings

Security review
Written by gpt-4o-mini from 16 checks over the crawlYour website has several security gaps that need addressing. The most critical issues include the lack of HTTP Strict Transport Security, missing protective frame and cookie headers, and exposing server version information. These vulnerabilities can lead to interception of user data and other attacks. Immediate action is recommended.
- 0 high
- 4 medium
- 3 low
- 1 info
- 1
Missing HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS)Medium
Why it matters: Without HSTS, users can be intercepted when they access your website first through HTTP.
Fix: Add the header: Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains.
Evidence: HTTP Strict Transport Security
- 2
Missing X-Frame-Options HeaderMedium
Why it matters: Without this header, the site can be embedded in a frame, allowing clickjacking attacks.
Fix: Add the header: X-Frame-Options: DENY.
Evidence: Clickjacking protection
- 3
Missing HttpOnly and Secure Flags on CookiesMedium
Why it matters: Cookies without protection can be accessed by scripts or transmitted over insecure connections.
Fix: Set the cookie flags: HttpOnly, Secure, SameSite=Strict for all cookies.
Evidence: Cookie flags
- 4
Leaked Google API KeyMedium
Why it matters: Exposing this API key can lead to unauthorized usage and billing issues.
Fix: Restrict the API key by referrer and settings in Google Cloud console.
Evidence: Keys and secrets in page code
- 5
Exposed Server Version InformationLow
Why it matters: Revealing the server version can help attackers identify vulnerabilities.
Fix: Remove the X-Powered-By header and configure your server to hide version information.
Evidence: Software version disclosure
- 6
Missing X-Content-Type-OptionsLow
Why it matters: Without this, there's a risk of MIME sniffing, which can lead to script execution attacks.
Fix: Add the header: X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff.
Evidence: MIME sniffing protection
- 7
Mixed Content IssuesLow
Why it matters: Loading resources over HTTP on HTTPS pages can lead to interception of these resources.
Fix: Ensure all resources use HTTPS URLs rather than HTTP.
Evidence: Mixed content
- 8
Permissions Policy MissingInfo
Why it matters: A missing permissions policy can leave unused features accessible to attackers.
Fix: Add the header: Permissions-Policy: microphone=(), camera=(), geolocation=().
Evidence: Permissions policy

- FoundPermissions policyInfo
181 of 190 HTML pages send permissions-policy. A Permissions-Policy header turns off browser features the site does not use (camera, microphone, geolocation), limiting what an injected script could do.

- server: LiteSpeed (4246 responses)
- x-powered-by: PHP/8.5.12 (233 responses)
- FoundCookie flagsMedium
2 of 2 cookies 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.

- FoundKeys and secrets in page codeMedium
1 credential-like value found in code served to every visitor: Google API key.
- Google API key AIzaSy…0Q (39 chars) in https://picstory.ca/about/studio/: browser keys are expected in pages, but must be restricted by HTTP referrer and API in the Google Cloud console
- NoteThird-party scripts
Scripts run from 1 other domain 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.)
- maps.google.com (3 script tags)
- NoteSensitive paths in robots.txt
robots.txt lists 1 path that look private. robots.txt is public and does not restrict access, so it doubles as a map for anyone probing the site; those paths need real access control.
- Disallow: /wp-admin/
6 checks passed
- OKHTTPS
All 190 crawled pages were served over HTTPS.
- OKContent Security Policy
A Content-Security-Policy is set.
- OKReferrer policy

- OKForms over HTTPS
50 forms found, all on HTTPS pages posting to HTTPS addresses.
- OKVulnerable JavaScript libraries

None of the crawled URLs is a configuration file, backup, dump, repository folder or directory listing.
