On September 10, 2026 the Site Spider crawled 16 pages and 254 assets of vetshield.ca, starting from https://vetshield.ca/. It scored 69 out of 100, a result that needs work. 10 of 27 checks found something to fix, led by meta descriptions (12), heavy assets (33), headings (11); 11 checks passed. Most of the points went to meta descriptions (−8), heavy assets (−6), headings (−5.5). 6 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.

Fix plan
Written by gpt-4o-mini from the scan findingsWritten from an earlier version of the analysis. The findings on this page have been recomputed since, so counts and labels here may differ from what the plan describes. The advice still points at the same checks.
Your website needs several fixes to improve SEO and user experience, particularly focusing on broken links, title and meta description enhancements, and addressing heading issues. Follow the prioritized steps for effective improvements.
- 1
Fix Broken Links
Why: These links lead to errors, harming user experience and SEO.
How: Identify and remove or replace links pointing to https://vetshield.ca/peak-veterinary-hospital/.
Checks: broken-links
- 2
Improve Title Tags
Why: Short titles miss optimization potential, affecting visibility on search engines.
How: Revise titles to be more descriptive and increase length (ideally 50-60 characters).
Checks: titles
- 3
Add Meta Descriptions
Why: Missing or short descriptions do not help search engines or encourage clicks.
How: Create unique descriptions for each page; aim for 50-160 characters.
Checks: meta-descriptions
- 4
Resolve Heading Issues
Why: Multiple H1s can confuse search engines and impact SEO ranking.
How: Ensure each page has a single H1 tag and properly structured headings.
Checks: headings
- 5
Increase Content Length on Thin Pages
Why: Low word counts fail to provide value, leading to poor SEO performance.
How: Add more relevant content to thin pages like 'Careers', 'Contact', and 'Events'. Aim for 200+ words.
Checks: thin-content
- 6
Review Orphan Pages and Sitemap Coverage
Why: Pages not linked internally are harder for users and search engines to find.
How: Add internal links pointing to the 'Home' page and ensure it’s properly included in the sitemap.
Checks: sitemap-coverage, orphan-pages

Security review
Written by gpt-4o-mini from 16 checks over the crawlThe website vetshield.ca lacks key security headers, making it vulnerable to a range of attacks such as man-in-the-middle, clickjacking, and MIME sniffing. Immediate action is recommended to implement these protections.
- 0 high
- 3 medium
- 2 low
- 0 info
- 1
Missing HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS)Medium
Why it matters: Without HSTS, users may be exposed to man-in-the-middle attacks when accessing the site without 'https://'.
Fix: Add the following header to all responses: `Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload`.
Evidence: HTTP Strict Transport Security
- 2
Missing Content Security Policy (CSP)Medium
Why it matters: The absence of a CSP allows potential loading of malicious scripts and resources from unauthorized sources.
Fix: Add a CSP header: `Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; script-src 'self' www.googletagmanager.com;` (customize based on your requirements).
Evidence: Content Security Policy
- 3
Missing X-Frame-OptionsMedium
Why it matters: Lack of this header makes the site vulnerable to clickjacking attacks.
Fix: Include the header in responses: `X-Frame-Options: DENY` or `X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN`.
Evidence: Clickjacking protection
- 4
Missing X-Content-Type-OptionsLow
Why it matters: Without this header, browsers may incorrectly process files, leading to execution of unauthorized scripts.
Fix: Add the header to responses: `X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff`.
Evidence: MIME sniffing protection
- 5
Lack of Subresource Integrity for Third-party ScriptsLow
Why it matters: Scripts from external domains can be modified maliciously, providing a vector for attacks.
Fix: Implement Subresource Integrity for external scripts, or consider a restrictive CSP.
Evidence: Third-party scripts
