71/ 100Needs work

On September 13, 2026 the Site Spider crawled 1213 pages and 1159 assets of screamingfrog.co.uk, starting from https://screamingfrog.co.uk/. It scored 71 out of 100, a result that needs work. 10 of 27 checks found something to fix, led by meta descriptions (836), heavy assets (13), image alt text (214,228); 9 checks passed. Most of the points went to meta descriptions (−7.1), heavy assets (−6), image alt text (−5.5). 8 checks found something the score does not count, listed as noted. 10 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.

Security review

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

The website has some vulnerabilities, including an exposed Google API key that could be misused if not properly restricted. Additionally, third-party scripts are being loaded from multiple domains without security measures which could increase the risk of attacks. These findings should be addressed promptly to enhance security.

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

    Exposed Google API KeyMedium

    Why it matters: A Google API key is found in the code, which can lead to unauthorized usage if compromised.

    Fix: Restrict the API key in the Google Cloud console by setting HTTP referer restrictions to limit who can use it.

    Evidence: Keys and secrets in page code

  2. 2

    Third-party Scripts Lack Subresource IntegrityLow

    Why it matters: Scripts from multiple external domains are running without Subresource Integrity, increasing risks of malicious changes.

    Fix: Implement a Content-Security-Policy that specifies trusted sources and consider using Subresource Integrity where applicable.

    Evidence: Third-party scripts

What the checks found

  • FoundKeys and secrets in page codeMedium

    1 credential-like value found in code served to every visitor: Google API key.

    • Google API key AIzaSy…Sc (39 chars) in https://www.screamingfrog.co.uk/wp-content/themes/screamingfrog/public/js/sf-bu…: 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 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.)
