On November 2, 2026 the Site Spider crawled 125 pages and 89 assets of www.branderco.ca, starting from https://www.branderco.ca/. It scored 57 out of 100, a result that needs work. 11 of 33 checks found something to fix, led by title tags (26), meta descriptions (26), sitemap coverage (62); 12 checks passed. Most of the points went to title tags (−9.6), meta descriptions (−7.7), sitemap coverage (−6). 10 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.

How: Craft unique meta descriptions for the 25 pages currently lacking them, under 160 characters.
Evidence: 25 pages have no meta description at all.
25 pages affected
Checks: meta-descriptions

Shrink Heavy Assets
Why: Large assets impact load times, which can affect user experience and SEO.
How: Compress or optimize the 9 large assets to improve loading speed.
Evidence: 33.6 KB of script, loaded by 27 pages, so every visitor to any of them downloads it.
27 pages affected

Security review
Written by gpt-4o-mini from 16 checks over the crawlThe website lacks essential security headers, exposing it to various vulnerabilities such as interception and clickjacking. Immediate implementation of HTTP Strict Transport Security, Content Security Policy, X-Frame-Options, and other headers is crucial for enhancing security.
- 0 high
- 3 medium
- 4 low
- 1 info
- 1
Missing HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS)Medium
Why it matters: Without HSTS, users typing the site address without HTTPS can be intercepted on the first request.
Fix: Add the header: Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains
Evidence: HTTP Strict Transport Security
- 2
Missing Content Security Policy (CSP)Medium
Why it matters: Absence of CSP allows unrestricted loading of scripts, styles, and frames, increasing XSS risks.
Fix: Add a CSP header such as: Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self';
Evidence: Content Security Policy
- 3
Missing X-Frame-Options (Clickjacking Protection)Medium
Why it matters: Without this protection, your pages can be embedded in frames on other sites, risking clickjacking.
Fix: Add the header: X-Frame-Options: DENY
Evidence: Clickjacking protection
- 4
Missing X-Content-Type-Options (MIME Sniffing Protection)Low
Why it matters: Omitting this header may allow a browser to execute files based on content types rather than declared types.
Fix: Add the header: X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
Evidence: MIME sniffing protection
- 5
Missing Referrer PolicyLow
Why it matters: Lack of a referrer policy exposes full page addresses to sites users navigate to.
Fix: Add the header: Referrer-Policy: no-referrer
Evidence: Referrer policy
- 6
Server Version DisclosureLow
Why it matters: The server response reveals its version, which can be exploited by attackers for known vulnerabilities.
Fix: To reduce exposure, consider using: Server: [your web server name, omitting version]
Evidence: Software version disclosure
- 7
Mixed Content IssuesLow
Why it matters: Loading resources over HTTP on HTTPS pages can lead to security warnings and potential man-in-the-middle attacks.
Fix: Change the URLs of these resources to HTTPS.
Evidence: Mixed content
- 8
Missing Permissions PolicyInfo
Why it matters: Absence of this policy leaves browser features like camera or geolocation available to potentially harmful scripts.
Fix: Add the header: Permissions-Policy: geolocation=(), microphone=(), camera=()
Evidence: Permissions policy
